The relationship between dinosaurs (or reptiles) and birds is interesting. Remember, life itself is evolutionary in nature, thanks to its own innate potential. Life-forms are intelligently adapting themselves within their own environments, co-dynamically with all other life-forms.
That 'God' created all things is a 'belief', while the reality of Life itself being what it is, and acting by its own intelligent laws...is the factual reality...since these unfold by natural law.
Taking this a step further, it would seem that some religionists refer to 'God' as a 'person',...but there is support that 'God' could be a 'personification' created by ourselves in order to relate to some supernatural being, which is really in fact, Nature itself
- Again, we can refer to 'Nature', 'Intelligence', 'Spirit (life-energy-dynamic)', or 'Reality' itself as 'God',...but our 'conception' of 'God' may be subject to our 'projection' or 'personification' of such, relative to what religious tradition, mythology or belief-system we 'relate' things thru. Back to 'words'.
For a thought-stimulating 'commentary' on this see Rev. Michael Dowd's article
"God: Person or Personification?"
In-joy!
