The mass extinction that wiped out dinosaurs and other life 65
million years ago apparently did not, contrary to conventional
wisdom, immediately clear the way for the rise of today's mammals.

In fact, the ancestral branches of most mammals, including primates,
rodents and hoofed animals, emerged long before the global extinction
and survived it more or less intact. But it was not until at least 10
million to 15 million years afterward that the lineages of living
mammals began to flourish in number and diversity.

So much for the KT asteroid.... Maybe evolutionists can morph their
theory again and believe me, it will explain it all!!

this doesnt address the KT asteroid at all, let alone disprove it.- Hide quoted text -

Yesterday's ToE claimed that reptiles filled most niches and few
mammals were around, they were small, and made it through the event.

This does change the story surrounding evolution, selection pressures,
extinctions and some idiot will use the formless, unboundried Theory
of Evolution as if it had meaning yesterday or today. I'm just some
person who thinks it fit anything and every change, no matter what the
facts are on the ground.

Is that what you are going to try next?

the only thing this study alleges is that mammals took a while to
radiate. as far as im aware, no scientist ever disputed this to begin
with. to me it seems like another screwup by the sensationalist media.
*every* study published that gets reported on in the media is called
"revolutionary," no matter how many scientists already felt that the
results of the study were reasonable.- Hide quoted text -

I'm not buying that rap. Six thousand posted topics directly
preceding today's post habe been bitching down any opponent of the
ToE, and they all claim how it is a fact, scientific and based on the
evidence. Creationists have mentioned that it is some kind of
irrelevant belief system that does NOT follow the evidence. Well,
today, sir, you are going to once again attempt to claim that this
evidence still fits a ToE which never had any constraints, and I still
claim that it never did, so whoop ti do?!?

All of those previous 6G posts were over the top with belief and
faith, and the evidence on the ground just changed completely, but the
ToE doesn't have to change, does it? It covers everything. It is so
formless and plastic that no amount of change in the facts matters.

please show me ANY scientist ANYWHERE claiming that the results of
this study were wrong before it was written. show ANY of them claiming
that evolution forbids its results.

this is the problem with getting your science from the new york times.
read the original paper, you just might learn something.
