Look what blind chance can do

Naturally I`m being sarcastic:

Observe how still that bird keeps his head while his wings flap away furiously. It`s all luck of course!

Yes-- millions and millions of years ago there was this bird who was able to keep his head more still than his fellow birds when flying and hunting. As a result, he had more successful kills and was healthier and fatter than his less fortunate cohorts who kept taking their eye off the ball, so to speak. As a result he was able to mate more times with the more desirable females (however that is judged among birds) and had more offspring than his sickly head bobbing friends. Not only that, he was able to pass this "keep your head still" gene onto his offspring and after many millions of years all of these birds have this unique ability, which, by the way, is still being fine tuned.

Now if only global warming does not wipe them all out.

See, evolution can explain everything- even why girls throw like, well, girls:

That video of the chicken was amazing! As a young boy, I loved chickens. I even learned chicken language. But I never noticed that about the stationary heads. By the way, the guy referred to the chicken as "he". It was a female.

Here is a photo of me at age 9 carrying my favourite chicken, Chickery, while petting one of our dogs.

I don`t know what your problem is TK.

A woman cannot throw like a man because she permanently has a baby cradled in her non-throwing arm. So she never gets the chance to throw a ball unemcumbered. It`s logical! These IDers and Creationists are such illogical people!
