Evolutionists Imagine Dinosaur Feathers

Something unlikely to appear in a dinosaurs-go-bezerk-and-eat-people movie is Psittacosaurus. The largest species is not all that impressive. There is a prairie schooner-full of specimens, including intact skeletons. Adults were bipedal like the iconic T. rex.

This particular specimen from China had an interesting fossilization characteristic. Some of its skin was turned to glass, so to speak. Instead of the usual minerals, silica found its way in. Watch how Darwin's acolytes get bizarre — and illogical — promoting dino-to-bird and also feather evolution.

Once again, evolution is assumed despite lack of evidence. (Stories, inferences from stories, and so on, yes, but not real evidence.) Although they admit that feather evolution is "profound," feathers are loaded with specified complexities because they were created, not evolved. There is no evidence of feather evolution.

Researchers did not find feather-making skin, but they did find reptilian skin in this dinosaur. They also used a passel of circular reasoning between this critter's skin and the skin of living birds. Further, they used the evolutionary principle of Making Things Up™. Since critical thinking skills are seldom being taught, dishonest Darwinoids capitalize on it, make statements, use bad logic, get away with it — and be paid. People should be outraged.
Fossil experts from University College Cork in Ireland took stunning images of Psittacosaurus skin. The dinosaurs’ belly shows patches of skin that glow orange under UV light. However, the top of this dinosaur’s tail has long fibers that many assume were feather-like bristles. So, these study authors suggest that since this dinosaur had two types of skin, perhaps the evolutionary ancestors of today’s birds did, too. Do this fossil’s details really help solve the riddle of feather evolution?
