Reptile-to-bird transition a fraud??? Are you kidding me?
First of all, your use of the term "reptile" belies your ignorance in general (you really mean archosaur) but we'll let that one go and pretend you actually know what the word "reptile" means in the context of bird evolution.
We now have dozens and dozens of feathered dinosaurs (not necessarily flying, but feathered nonetheless), transitional fossil feather types (e.g., down vs. assymetric flight), and birds with teeth and claws on their wings..oh, and they have tails.
In other words, the dinosaur bird "transition" is incredibly clearly documented in the fossil record AND in the genes of modern birds (yes, we can make teeth in birds by selectively reactiving genes that they still carry with them).
Your claim about "reptiles and birds" being a "fraud" is 100% bullcrap and either:
1) you are purposefully spreading false information to advocate your religious views OR 2) you have been duped into believing this FUD by somebody.
If 2, please follow the advise of the great geologist Louis Agassiz: "Go to nature, take the facts into your own hands, look, see for youself."
If 1, look yourself in the mirror and ask yourself where deceit falls within your doctrine.
