Re: Inadequate support for an assertion
Okay
Total and unmitigated Crap!
I'm sorry but Springer claims that he is a Physician. As such I expect at least a basic understanding of science and logic.

Re: both of you go away
You are correct. I should not have responded here. My apology. It does not belong here. I will edit my response to move it elsewhere.

coloration
But don't dismiss coloration entirely. There is also the possibility of vaiable coloration and uses. There could be colored feathers used as camouflage but others might be brighter and used for display and courtship.

Re: Archaeoraptor and Archaeopteryx
There is little doubt that the evolution of flight is one of the sketchiest areas of the ToE, but that in no way detracts from a wealth of evidence that DOES well support evolution.
Actually there is quite a bit of evidence on the origin of flight, wings and feathers. One of the more likely candidates is reuse and redirection of existing capabilities, a function shift. You can read more about that here.
