You must unlearn what you have learned.

I heard that mammals flourished in the aftermath of the dinosaur die-off, but the idea that "they quickly produced a bunch of new species" (very scientific wording, by the way -- "bunch") is idiotic. Seriously, Francis; find an argument that someone actually holds, and attack that. |

I don't need to unlearn anything--what I need to do is expand my knowledge on the topic. This has simply provided an interesting additional piece of information that is added to a bunch of other information. Some of it has not been supported by the evidence--some of it is still valid--but all of it relates You on the other hand keep seeking for that magical lynchpin that will cause science to tumble down around our ears. You are like a bankrobber who takes an empty briefcase hostage and walks out into the waiting police with your gun pointed at the handle. You have a complete disjunct in understanding how this whole thing works for most of us. Even if you were to somehow disprove evolution--which you won't--we would simply develop a new theory based on the information that we do have--and I can guarantee you that unless George Burns shows up and proves he is God concretely and difinitively --we will not be instantly converted to your ignorant limited worldview. On top of that--even if "god" did appear--most of us here would be demanding some fucking explanations rather than falling down on our knees for some theollatio. Now shut up and fuck off. |
the article states the obvious as if it were news.
we already knew that "a bunch of new species" don't just burst into existence under any circumstances. Xians seem to have a hard time understanding anything that doesn't happen in a flash. |

Can you please elaborate on why you posted this? You do understand that when scientific theories are disproven, this in no way supports any "godidit" ideas? DBS, Excellent use of avatar and description. :bow: |

I typed stupid into google images and that one popped up. I thought hmm... perfect. |
So, based on the fossil record and new advances in molecular biology, mammals show a "burst" of speciation between 100 million and 85 million years ago and another between about 55 million and 35 million years ago instead of a single "burst" 65 million years ago. The new findings are clearly consistent with a young Earth. :rolleyes:

Is it possible that the meteor strike killed the large plants.
This would eventually do in the large herbivores, and then of course that would wipe out the large carnivores. Perhaps it took some time for larger plants to grow, causing many mammals to grow larger so they could enjoy eating from the taller trees. Just my little theory based on my limited knowledge of science. |
