Excerpt from The True Nature Of Human Nature

As a final nail in the coffin of the creation account, let us examine a definitive hole in the creation mythos on day five.  On this day, birds are created, alongside the animals in the seas.  On day six, land animals are created.  However, again in using the fossil record, we find a glaring hole in this account.  Birds are direct descendants of dinosaurs.  Fossil evidence establishes that dinosaurs and birds had congruent features such as hollow, pneumatized bones, were nest-builders and had similar digestive behaviors.   Archaeopteryx is a classic example of a fossil that fills a missing link gap.  

This brings us to our inevitable dilemma.  Land animals are clearly created on the sixth day, after birds!  This runs in direct opposition to what Paleontology has shown us!  We can even ignore the overwhelming evidence for evolution because the bible does not subscribe to this fact.  Let us examine the fossil record.  Fossils in lower layers died longer ago than specimens found in higher layers.  It can be viewed as the earth tree rings.  When do you ever find a bird fossil at a portion of the earth’s strata lower than the first land animals?  Never!  It never happens!  Therefore, you can exclude all of the overwhelming evidence that science has culled together, such as similar bodily characteristics, habits, conclusive DNA evidence (it is scientifically proven that a T-Rex and bird are a closer match DNA-wise than an alligator, a reptile) and the fact that feathers developed in the fossil record with dinosaurs and no other such animal.  The layers of the stratum show that the land animals came first and that birds came after.  There is no way to provide confluence to the text.  It is irreconcilable.
