And what is it that we don't know for sure?

Can it? How?

You are entitled to your opinion.

Irrelevant.

How?

Outline the data that supports the darwinian evolution of birds (I accept the
common descent of birds with reptiles, thus focus on the evidence that speaks
exclusively to the Darwinian mechanism behind it).
>Can teleology provide with a experimentally verifiable pathway ?
Are you asking for the lab notes?
