Don't you love it when creationists say there aren't any transitional fossils? It's like their ultimate trump card. Lets entirely overlook the fact that they are unequivocally wrong. They can't be wrong! The more ardently one bolsters his ludicrous notions of the universe, the more veracious! The logic is infallible! How did I not see it before.

Bahh. I could rant on and on about what creationists do and have to say. The important point is, I'm sure you've all heard that distinctive strident shriek that only comes from the creationist basking in his self-confidence. Nothing seems to inflate a creationist's self-confidence like his transitional fossil drivel. Since most of us aren't walking encyclopedias, it's no wonder that we can't name transitional fossils off of our head.

Anyway, today BBC has an interesting article about a transitional species of the sort whose existence is vehemently denied by creationists. Essentially, what it describes is a snake with hind legs. The species is known as Eupodophis descouensi.

Here are a few more common transitionals you may want to familiarize yourself with if you're into that thing:

Indohyus
Archaeopteryx
Tiktaalik

There are plenty of others. Here's a list on wikipedia. Of particular interest may be transitional species to human development. Talkorigins has a great article on the evolutionary history of the whale. Talkorigins is a great site as it is. I would recommend browsing it if you haven't.

Anyway, I just wanted to highlight the BBC article, and reemphasize that creationists are pretty full of shit.
