All Dinosaurs have four perfectly good legs and birds have two legs and two wings. So if he’s going to turn into a bird his front legs are going to have to turn into wings Somewhere along the line they’re going to be half leg and half wing. Which means now he can’t walk anymore and can’t fly yet.

Better yet, show him a mirror and ask how he can walk with only two legs.
...assuming he doesn't still drag his knuckles.
"Somewhere along the line they’re going to be half leg and half wing. Which means now he can’t walk anymore and can’t fly yet."
Unless the dinosaurs in question were BIPEDAL..as in they stood on two legs.
Really why can't these people at least try to make anon-stupid argument?

As opposed to Kent, who can't walk anywhere and wont be flying for at least the next 7 - 10 years.
All Dinosaurs have four perfectly good legs,,,,,,,,, except all the species of pterosaurs, of course. But why screw up a perfectly fine-sounding argument with facts? The saddest part is,,, thousands of people actually believe this ignoramus!
"All Dinosaurs have four perfectly good legs and birds have two legs and two wings."
Well, not all but many. Given who's making this observation I'll let that slide. Here's your gold star. Now get back in your cell.

You mean something like this?

I think it's pretty clear that at some point the damned thing would become bipedal you moron.
Alot of dinosaurs were bipedal.
Really, how did this guy get the nickname "Dr. Dino" when he seems to know absolutely nothing about them?
Kent I'm really fucking insulted here because I knew more about dinosaurs when I was four then you do right now but apparently you get to call yourself an expert. All carnivorous dinosaurs walked on two legs, watch Jurassic Park and you'll immediately be able to tell the raptors from the Triceratops. Furthermore all wings are are modified arms.
"can’t walk anymore"
Hey Kent, check out my new magic trick!!
*Stand upright on just two legs*
WHAT NOW STUPID
*Slaps Kent with a T-Rex fossil*
Most theropod dinosaurs, including T-Rex, walked on two legs. They didn't have "four perfectly good legs" - their upper limbs usually weren't usable for walking. T-Rex's certainly weren't.
Also, Kent should try some Buffalo wings some time and ask himself if they actually look like wings. Birds don't have "wings" when you take the feathers off them - they have arms like a T-Rex, with long feathers trailing out of the backs of them.
You know, if there were dinosaurs who walked on two legs, this argument would be disproved. Fortunatly for Kent, no dinosaurs ever walked on just two legs.
Wait...
Remember your favorite vegan, T-Rex? Just how useful were his front legs? Could you imagine something like that trying to walk on all four?
And yeah there were creatures that were bipedal and had wings. There were also feathered tree climbers (didn't really walk on the ground at all) that started to glide.
Fuck I knew this shit in grade 5, what the hell happened to you?
"All Dinosaurs have four perfectly good legs, except all the species of pterosaurs, of course."
Actually, pterosaurs aren't considered dinosaurs.[/nitpick]
I knew more about dinosaurs than him at age 6... and I could prove it! I have an old home video somewhere of me saying "No, daddy, you say it see-low-fie-sis. It walks on two feet, like this," (cue little kid walking around like a dinosaur)
T-Rex, or indeed, any theropod dinosaur would have been walking on it's back legs, using it's front limbs for nothing.
Roar. Your silly.
Yha...thats it.
Funny, you managed to evolve into a jailbird, Kent, and I don't see you flying yet. But seriously, moron? Ostriches. Flightless birds of all kinds. Same analogues among dinosaurs. Early wings? Running aids, gliding patagium... please do intellectualism a favor, Hovind. Find something to choke on. Can't be hard in your current environs.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
