                    EVOLUTIONISTS' CONFESSIONS
                    STATING THE IMPOSSIBILITY OF
                   REPTILES EVOLVING INTO BIRDS



           T           he impossible scenarios of evolution also require the life forms
            T


                       that emerged onto dry land, first evolved into  amphibians,
                       then reptiles and finally turned into flying creatures. Since
            evolutionists are convinced that birds had to have evolved in some way,

            they maintain that they evolved from reptiles.
                 But none of the physical mechanisms in birds-which have a totally
            different anatomy from that of terrestrial life forms-can be explained in
            terms of the gradual evolutionary model. First of all, birds' wings, and
            moreover even one single feather in these wings, represent an enormous
            dilemma for the theory of evolution. Evolutionists themselves state the
            impossibility of a reptile ever being able to fly, admitting that the idea

            conflicts with the fossil record.
                 William Elgin Swinton is an emeritus professor of zoology at the
            University of Toronto and dinosaur expert of the Natural History
            Museum in London:
                  There is no fossil evidence of the stages through which the remarkable
                 change from reptile to bird was achieved. 234
                 Alan Feduccia is professor of avian evolution, paleobiology and
            systematics at the University of North Carolina:
                 How do you derive birds from a heavy, earthbound, bipedal reptile that
                 has a deep body, a heavy balancing tail, and fore-shortened forelimbs?
                 Biophysically, it's impossible. 235
