In the evolution mad scheme of things, birds would have had to design and create their own wings. They are the ones who need them not natural.

Folks, I've just seen the light and repented of my evil-utionism. In the evolution mad scheme of things, fundies would have had to design and create their own brains. The fact that they don't have any brains conclusively disproves that notion. Therefore, Goddidit. Shout glory!
There is only one appropriate answer to that quote, and while it's been said, I'll say it again:
EVOLUTION DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY. GOODNIGHT.
"Percy" is a Moonie, and a regular on the BBC boards. He's not a troll as such, but he loves derailing threads by coming out with this bullshit.
He thinks that intelligent beings creating themselves is the only alternative to Goddidit. In short, he's an idiot and best ignored.
Both Pack and Tyro made me burst out laughing.
But as to the original poster... Persecuted, did you design your own feet?
“In the evolution mad scheme of things,”
Oh,goodie. Someone who knows absolute FUCK ALL about evolution is going to demonstrate an ‘if evolution were true’ hypothetical.
“birds would have had to design and create their own wings.”
Kinda… Sorta… The dinosaurs that had the mutation where scales came out as feathers made their own feathers. Not really a design, except that ‘trial and error’ works as a blind design process.
But, okay, they mutated, there were benefits, it benefited their offspring well enough to dominate the gene pool.
And there were some mutations that led to gliding, which benefited. And among the gliders, some mutated into wings, and on and on and on.
But it wasn’t one dino working alone on a branch who suddenly said, “I can FLY! We can all fly! We just have to have wings!”
“They are the ones who need them not natural.”
Well, yes. The dinos that evolved into winged birds need the wings. Or they wouldn’t be winged birds. But saying it’s not natural, that’s just stupid.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
