Page 27 - The Origin of Birds and Flight
P. 27

volutionists maintain that the alleged ancestors of
                           birds were dinosaurs, a group of the reptile family. Yet
                           they can’t explain how dinosaurs turned into birds.
                           Two main theses are proposed regarding the origin of
              flight, but each is nonsensical and devoid of evidence, being based
              solely on assumptions.
                 According to the so-called cursorial theory, dinosaurs turned into
              birds by taking to the air from the ground. The word “cursorial”
              comes from the Latin word  curcus, meaning “running” or “fast
              movement.”
                 According to the so-called arboreal theory, the alleged ancestors of
              birds were dinosaurs, a group of tree-dwelling reptiles that gradual-
              ly developed wings by leaping from branch to branch.
                 Both theories are based on imagination and assumptions. There
              is no evidence to support either one. In the face of this difficulty,
