Actually, if you had read the thread, Budikka is the one that
claimed it: that Platypus are related to reptiles, birds and
mammals - i.e., that they in some way evolved from each other.

(Monotreme being the Platypus)
Bible Bob was denouncing that claim (as ironically so are you and
rogue). Robert was responding to my post as if I was the one who
originally made that claim, or even if he was trying to claim
Bible Bob said it.
So it's clear you think such a statement that Budikka made is
ridiculous. Glad you agree that yet another claim made in the
name of evolutionism is ridiculous. If you're looking to disagree
with the person who claims such a thing is true, please talk to
Budikka.
