Give a talk to children and tell them dinosaurs didn't drag their tails, and you get arguments.
Most people looking for dinosaurs are looking for beautiful skeletons.
A chicken grows up in a little less time than an ostrich. An ostrich takes a whole year. A chicken takes a few months.
Comparing science and religion isn't like comparing apples and oranges - it's more like apples and sewing machines.
Dinosaurs are built just like birds - they can squat down, they can get up. Mammals, when we lay down, we throw our legs out to the sides - birds cannot do that. Dinosaurs could not do that either.
