Language. CI ![]() And don't forget people that use the same logic to defend their personal opinions on extinct animals. |

The only areas with high volcanic activity I could think of in the Mesozoic is the early Rocky Mountains, India's Deccan Traps, and maybe the Yixian Formation but I don't know any other. Volcanic regions was not everywhere, if so then the Mesozoic was full of dead plants and animals. |

I think Hell Creek also had some volcanic activity (at least if various documentaries are to be believed). |

Also those areas in the rift valleys between splitting continents would experience it as well, I'm careful with this, but some of us atheists seem to be a little too anti-religious, to the point of being mean to those that are religious,Recently I have become a lot more tolerant of people with such viewpoints.through this should not be made into an argument. |

I wouldn't say I'm deliberately more aggressive to religious people, but I tend to get edgy and defensive, same thing around extremist right wing people |

It's okay until they start to use that to show evolution is wrong or the world is very young with very little evidence! |

Exactly, a half-feathered abomination that doesn't even follow the fossils. |

BANDits and the increasingly desperate and illogical arguments they make. Feduccia even stated in a recent article IIRC that Ornithomimus couldn't possibly have had feathers just because the arrangement of its quill knobs is nothing like that of living birds. So...just because it had differently arranged feathers means it didn't have feathers at all? |
