“She was beautiful, but not like those girls in magazines. She was beautiful, for the way she thought. She was beautiful, for the sparkle in her eyes when she talked about something she loved.

This ongoing disagreement stems from the fact that each dinosaur fossil appears to be from a fully formed creature with every part in place. So we see that expert dinosaur design is a problem for evolutionary explanations. Evolutionists must invent extra substories to explain why there are no undisputed in-between dinosaur forms and why there are no good examples of evolution's design "blunders" among dinosaur fossils.
