do u believe in feathered dinos as well ??
Yeah. Mostly because it makes sense. The whole "birds are dinosaurs" movement is not nearly as young as people think. It has been proposed since the earliest days of paleontology, we'd just never found anything indicating feather impressions until relatively recently.

feathered dinosaurs LOL @Riverwolf atleast admit that you accept feathered dinosaurs are fraud

Then make your own and find wealth and fame in doing so. Just pretend you were out digging in a field and found something. Call your local museum or university, as I'm sure they would be eager and willing to assist you. If these things are so easily faked, you'll have your name shining in the next day's newspapers and maybe even a plaque mentioning you as the finder in a museum or university exhibit. If it's all really that easy, go do it. Afterall, they say those who can do while those who can't teach.

Archaeraptor was a fake transitional fossil created to support dinosuar to bird transition. The video that was published clearly shows why it is a complete fraud.

Oh, you mean that whole fiasco with archaoraptor? I already knew about that. The bones used to make it come from other dinosaurs.

If you actually cared to watch the video, you would know this.

I took a look at the uploader's other videos, and can pretty safely conclude that this guy is an unreliable source of information. Therefore, if I had actually cared to watch the video, I can be pretty certain I wouldn't retain any of the information, since I'd take it about as seriously as Flat Earth claims.

On February 3, 2000, National Geographic issued a press release stating that the fossil could be a composite, and that an internal investigation had begun. In October 2000 National Geographic published the results of their investigation, in an article written by Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist Lewis M. Simons. Simons concluded that the fossil was a composite and that virtually everyone involved in the project had made some mistakes

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archaeoraptor

From that same link (right at the top, actually):
Zhou et al. found that the head and upper body actually belong to a specimen of the primitive fossil bird Yanornis.[1] A 2002 study found that the tail belongs to a small winged dromaeosaur, Microraptor, named in 2000.[2] The legs and feet belong to an as yet unknown animal.[3][4]

Your own source betrays your position.

Wrong again.


Dinosaurs did not "become" birds. Birds have simply always been dinosaurs.
These closely related guys obviously never became birds:

Because it's easier to fill it with your own bull**** that way.
Why do you have to put down everyone and why would you bother with the uploader. I had watched the video with my headphones on and it is clear, just that audio is little low from speakers

But no one can be completely sure of what the scientists and others have on display as dinosaur bones.
Except those who have seen them firsthand. Or those who have seen them still in the rock, before being extracted.

No one can be sure if they are real or not and the fact that these fossils are magically discovered in the last century seems to make me more skeptical about the dinosaur drama...Seriously no one discovered these fossils till 19th century? Lol, gotta admit, a joke right ? ..I am not a believer of dinosaurs/dragons.
That's your right to have doubts. Perhaps you should contact some researchers in the paleontological field of studies who could take you and show you some originals? That might help you change your mind. Without you personally seeing and touching it firsthand, there's no argument or reasoning that can persuade you. It doesn't matter if someone here on this site have done it and tell you this, because you will only believe your own eyes. Correct?

Was archaeopteryx also a fraud?

Seriously, the only reason I can think of to hold to these kinds of beliefs is just to be different for difference's own sake. "EVERYONE just takes for granted that dinosaurs are real, so I'm not going to because I don't wanna be a sheep like them!"

I can understand that urge, since I'm kind of a hipster, but even I don't take my desire to be different to these levels.

here is a link saying that the dinosaur fossils are sandstone since someone kept on requesting a link
http://fphoto.photoshelter.com/image/I0000FKaXs3LACyw
I'm the one requesting the link -- and this link does not say the fossil is sandstone. It says the fossil was found in sandstone.
We've explained that fossils are mineralogically different from the strata they're found in.
You need to watch your links more carefully, and pay attention to contradictory evidence from other posts.

'Cause that's how bored I am. LOL

More seroiusly, I like to think of it as an opportunity to hone in my research skills, and perhaps even double-check facts and findings I always took for granted but might now be long outdated.
