I expect you to use the present continuous from now on whenever you are referring to God. Your call.

And I expect the same from you. Doing so negates your argument and claim below that the UC changed.

The uncaused cause (uc) could have decided not to create anything or to create any number of universes. It decided to create this one.

Now that indicates a change.

Even our atheist friend Laplace acknowledged as much:

Given for one instant an intelligence which could comprehend all the forces by which nature is animated and the respective situation of the beings who compose it— an intelligence sufficiently vast to submit these data to analysis—it would embrace in the same formula the movements of the greatest bodies of the universe and those of the lightest atom; for it, nothing would be uncertain and the future, as the past, would be present to its eyes.

They started morphing into birds long before the extinction event. No problem.

So the dinosaurs went extinct, but the dino-birds didn’t . 🤔

They were birds by then - not “dino-birds.”

What do you mean by….by then?

Somehow, they weren’t affected by the shock wave, clouds of dust, etc.

So, if there were only birds around at the time of the extinction event, why do they say it was an extinction event that caused the dinosaur extinction ?
 
Required evolution to survive the extinction. Beside the extinction probably took hundreds, if not thousands of years to run its course.

So, there was an extinction event that caused the dinos to go extinct,but their future incarnation in a bird form survived . 🤔

Is this the beginning of another series of questions with no point? If so, I don’t want to play.

Your right, I do this for fun, because I know I will never get a detailed answer…it never fails.
 
The big 'uns did! but small ones didn’t. Remember, the early mammals went thru it as well, and survived… or so states the fosil record, which is all we can interprete.
 
The big ones, losing their food supply from the dust and rocks, probably died out pretty fast, the little ones needed to adapt to a new world - one where smaller was more successful…so they had to change, enough to no longer be considered dinosaurs - that took time, something life has apparently had in abundance! There had to be places that were not so severely impacted by the extinction event, some things would survive, but not the really big things.

The asteroid/comet hit in what is now the Gulf of Mexico was like the infamous ‘tipping point’ the current climatologists go on about…except it was so sudden it was more akin to an exclamation point, hence the popular idea of ‘punctuated evolution’ - species success didn’t matter, all suffered in one way or another.

So, the big ones died, but the little ones survived.If they survived then everything is ok, they are still little dinosaurs.

So even though the entire earth was not destroyed. The remaining big dinosaurs said, “You know. I don’t want to do this anymore.”?? And they all quietly went somewhere to die?

The small ones survived how? Particulates in the atmosphere. And other atmospheric changes. Trees falling on them and so on? Contamination of the water supply? Too many questions. They survived because they survived?

The Hadron Collider recently accelerated an atom to near the speed of light but no relativistic effects were mentioned.

Even if the small ones survived, how is them morphing into birds millions of years down the road going to help them survive right after the extinction event ?
