You and Buz have been on this forum far longer than I. I would like to ask you what distinguishes Buzsaw's post from trolling? It appears to me he makes the obvious creationist assertions over and over using the same discredited arguments and never advances. Seems trollish to me but the debates continue here.
You have more depth in this I'd like to hear your take.
My personal understanding has to do with the motive of the poster. If someone posts to enjoy the flurry of responses but without a serious intent to understand or develop a topic I consider that a troll.
I'm not certain you are trolling. But you seem to enjoy getting people frustrated by unsupported statements you make. It does look to me like trolling yes. I wasn't sure which is why I asked.
but doesn't the fact it has a navel mean that whatever the creature is, it is a placental mammal and not a reptile/lizard/dinosaur ?
Very perceptive! I'm no expert but I've been around snakes and turtles and they don't have navels, neither do fish or birds. Excellent point. This critter whatever it was was a placental mammal and NOT a dinosaur.
