LOL! Are you KIDDING me?
It's soooo cute and tiny and harmless...why in the world would anyone name such a little harmless creature "terrible lizard"?
My initial reaction of course is because i expected to see a ferocious lizard.
Then when i saw such a small and harmless creature i almost fell of me chair...

Should I point out there that dinosaur isn't synonymous with lizard?
Or would that take the fun away?

You ... you mean "avian dinosaur" is a misnomer?
Or are you saying there are exceptions to Linnaeus' bologna?

I didn't even use the word "avian", so I have no idea why you think I had a comment about that.

Behold the terrible lizard!
Who needs God when you have the wonders of Evolution,
I recall when I first learned about Evolution, 10 years old and a 1 hour class changed everything for me, not just explaining how we got here but the concept that you don't need a complex thing to make a complex thing. There is a system that removes the need for a designer, and if we can find one such system do more systems exist.
Below Archaeopteryx. Funny story about a guy who owned one the first Archaeopteryx fossil, Writing "If evolution is true then you'd see a link creature" I like to think that the Fossil was on his desk whilst he wrote this!
If you think the change from Dinosaurs to Birds is mind blowing then look looking at how Whales evolved from Dog like mammals.
Like it or not Evolution killed God, it may take 100s of years to finish but it was a deathblow never the less. Not because of evolution itself but because there exists a system were simple things can go on to create complex things. And the Theists hypothesis centres around, not proof, but a need for a God to exist, to create complex things - no more need, no more God.

The universe is so much vaster, older and more mysterious then evolution on Earth that I don't think people believing in a "who" responsible will ever go away. (I mean, some people. Personally I don't).
I used to believe that creationism at least would go away, but seeing the rise of the Flat Earth has demonstrated to me that no science or evidence can really stand against the beliefs of humans.

10 years ago I was working for an international development charity whilst at a conference I was sat at a table for Lunch, usual crap sat with strangers:
One person asked a priest, "So what do we do to keep our communities Christian"
Priests states "Don't educate them too much."
Problem for that priest is the only way to get those countries out of the cycle of poverty is to educate them. I know it, I'd guess you know it, that priest knew it and more importantly the people of those countries know it.
And we all know more education means more knowledge, more rational thinking and every country which has this has moved away from religion.
