Hi, RiverCityRelay! You may call Paul's hypothesis a fringe theory or pseudoscience but then you should provide a reliable source explicitly stating so. Keep in mind that there is nothing particularly pseudoscientific about the Paulian Hypothesis. It does not violate accepted scientific methodology. Being refuted means a hypothesis is falsifiable and therefore science. Regarding its content, it simply boils down to Archaeopteryx being a bit lower on the evolutionary tree. That might have been perturbing in 1988, when minds were still clouded by protoscientific essentialist concepts, struggling to reconcile the Dinosaur with the Bird but in an age where birds are dinosaurs, it should not be shocking if some dinosaur should be closer to extant birds than to some other dinosaur which by some historical contingency once was commonly used to define birds.
