It isn’t a “belief” as Creationists say, the facts and data from the bones the genes the morphology show that. Also many of the other dinosaurs had bird like characteristics.
A majority of coelurosaur groups became extinct in the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event, including the Tyrannosauroidea, Ornithomimosauria, Oviraptorosauria, Deinonychosauria, Enantiornithes, and Hesperornithes. Only the Neornithes (modern birds) survived, and continued to diversify after the extinction of the other dinosaurs into the numerous forms found today.
Analysis of a shred of 68-million-year-old Tyrannosaurus Rex protein – along with that of 21 modern species – confirms that dinosaurs share common ancestry with birds, particularly chickens and ostriches, and to a lesser extent, alligators.Apr 24, 2008

Well, they did not evolve from you specifically. I mean, look at the proportional size of the forelimbs.

Dinosaurs with little bitty arms turning into birds with great big wings. Because… people will believe anything. ; )

Technically they’d be “cousins 30567 times removed” (at least that’s the way Ancestry phrases these things.)

I do love George. I never thought there would be a character in this comic that I liked better than Hammy but George may be it.
