“Flight supposedly arose several times according to the theory of evolution. The first time this happened was allegedly 400 million years ago in insects.5 Evolutionists do not have a clear concept about how this happened. However, what they do know is that the activities of dozens of genes are necessary for flight. In their thinking, all that complexity must have gradually arisen via unplanned, unguided, goal-less mutational events over deep time. These genes...
Read MoreEvolving & Losing Flight – 3 Times!!
The Aldabra Rail supposedly evolved flight and lost flight…3 TIMES??? Check it out here: “that loss of flight happened at least three times in the white-throated rail. The same kind of change happening in an organism, with the same result, is called “iterative evolution”. The probability of the same organ being affected on different occasions over tens to hundreds of thousands of years in the same species is very small indeed. The question also arises as to why the...

A Gary Larson cartoon depicts a meeting of several dinosaurs discussing their ultimate fate – extinction. The caption say; “Wings, feathers, nests? A crazy idea, but it just might work!” It certainly does sound like a crazy idea, but several science centers we visited lately have actually made the statement that dinosaurs are still with us – they “merely” evolved into birds. So, somehow, legs must have developed into wings and scales into feathers. Let’s take a close...
Read MoreBirds in Flight
Flying birds are compact, well-integrated flying machines capable of producing the large amounts of energy necessary for flight. Their powerful wings are properly shaped to utilize the physical principles of moving air. In addition, the wing size and shape varies with species, according to the size of the bird and its speed and type of flight. In fact, birds can often be identified by their characteristic flight pattern. The feathers of a bird serve to streamline the...
