    This isn’t Angry Birds with dinosaurs instead of pigs.

    I believe that Mark is alluding to the fact that all birds are descended from dinosaurs, just as all dogs are descended from wolves. Distant relatives indeed!

    It is amazing that a few changes in DNA makes the difference between Dino and bird. Now, it is time for our scientists to get back to work on the 4-legged chicken so every kid at the dinner table can have a drum stick. It has only been 3 decades since they started.

    markjoseph125, check out Darwin’s Black Box, by Michael Behe (biochemistry professor) and irreducible complexity. The staple in the mouse trap is not going to be adaptively selected because of its usefulness by itself.
