Horrific even for a creationist piece, the author, Mr. "Woodmorappe", argues 
that Maryanska et al 2002 have "confirmed" the avian status of 
Oviraptorosauria (it also seems that they believe Archaeopteryx is ancestral to 
"Clade B"), 
wings are modified hindlimbs, and birds belong to a clade called "avialdae". 
The majority of it consists of an incoherent look at cladistics and the 
obligatory quotes and arguments from the Feducciaries.

All in all, its quite amusing.
