The all new Velociraptor and why I laugh at 'science'

[Bomp]

So why are you criticising my pictures?

Because how something is portrayed in a popup book or a Hollywood movie doesn't qualify as empirical evidence.

The feather picture I presented wasn't from my pop up book. Go check out Wiki's view, they have even added wings!!!

The second pic I provided IS the SCIENTIFIC opinion of what they looked like. Actually to be more precise, it's the viw that science wants to convey it looked like in current books and literature to emphasise that they believe that therapod dinosaurs like velociraptor were the descendents of birds.

It is a scientific opinion postulated as a possibility by some dudes who found some (but not concrete) evidence to suggest that they might have feathers.

I agree that there is a lot of bad science out there, where people make outlandish assumptions from the least convincing evidence, but unfortunately these are the ones that make it to the mainstream media.
