On a lighter note, Mesozoic Era, the age of BIRDS!

[HappyHappy]

Old news (65 million years old) , the Mesozoic was the age of non avian birds.
Now there is conclusive proof that even the BIG "Dinosaurs"
had feathers.
The more they dig (especially in China and Mongolia) the more
evidence there is that all Dinosaurs were feathered before they
branched off into different groups. Funny but a guy named John Ostrom
cause a huge controversy back in the 1960's when he said that Birds are Dinosaurs
with darned good facts to back him up (Deinonychus_antirrhopus). Now it
is becoming obvious that all Dinosaurs are in fact birds. Warm blodded and active
multi ton birds! Yes, even those super giant Apatosaurs (Sauropods) likely
had feathers or down.
Good thing the last one of these died 65,000,000 years ago
or we would not exist.

no, dinosaurs were not 'warm-blooded'. Nor, were they truly birds, it's just that birds evolved from a reptilian branch, according to current theory, and yes, that seems to have occured in the Mesozoic Era sometime. Interesting, too, is the amount of avian(bird) DNA matches found all the way up to the human genome.

Im calling bullshit the Earth is only a few thousand years old

[HappyHappy]

Some believers in the god myth seem to believe the Earth to be
a few thousand years old. Most people these days realise our
planet to be over 4,000,000,000 years old, even believers.
Being Athiest I totaly reject the whole creation myth.
