were able to move freely and therefore let them catch their prey easier.
As feathers gradually widened, these proto-wings became increasingly
more effective for chasing and catching insects. As the front legs grew
ever longer, their movement enabled flight through the beat-
ing or flapping of wings observed in the present day.
This is clearly a forced model justified only by the the-
ory of evolution.
It is impossible for unconscious structures and
mechanisms to determine what is useful and what
isn’t and to behave with foresight in light of that. And
it is extremely irrational to expect that they can bring
about appropriate changes in the body. It is impossi-
ble for mutations, random and typically harmful
changes, to cause structural improvements in living
things. Even if we assume that mutations could have

One evolutionist scenario maintains
that dinosaurs’ forearms developed
into wings in the process of try-
ing to catch flies—which can
beat their wings 1,000 times a
second. But then how did flies
evolve wings of
their own?
