Did a rough Google search and here is what I was speaking about. My neighbor would rant and rave about this to no end. Sadly its the honest to goodness truth.![]()
http://www.creationists.org/dinos_Bible.html
Edit: By truth I mean his ranting and raving. Not that Adam and Eve were Dino Riders or anything! Obscure 80's cartoon reference ftw.
Well i am gonna come out and say it.
I believe in the Bible and I believe in Dinos. Went to college in Bozeman, MT home of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Museum_of_the_Rockies and met Jack Horner at a couple dinners. All i can say is if you actually read the Bible you would see that it does mention Dino like creatures in a couple different locations. And if you believe in God then you would also believe He can do anything(including make Dinos). Yeah i go to church but there are some of us that do have open minds about scientific ventures.
And that was my 100th post![]()
I wish I could live life as delusional as some people, must be nice.
I'm pretty sure these 'dino like' creatures were said to be living at the time of the bibles writing. It's a very broad description however and can apply to a rhino or elephant/big creature existing today. Not to mention that not all dinosaurs were huge, solid creatures like the one described.Originally Posted by BIGSTIC
Did you know that the term behemoth originated as a biblical description of a hippopotomus?
edit: my mistake. The beheoth, leviathan and ziz were apparently the three indestructable beasts of ancient Hebrew mythology. Maybe someone saw a hippo and a sperm whale and the stories got embellished for a few hundred years before someone else wrote them down.

There is still alot of this planet that we have yet to really understand. I am sorry but it just irks me when people just automaticly dismiss the Bible for any factual evidance. I wasnt there so i dont know what the "dino" was and well every scollar will have their own opinion. Yeah it very well probably was a rhino or hippo but then again it could have been a Futalognkosaurus dukei. My point was only that not every religious person thinks the world is 5000years old.
What I'm saying is that it is not a description of a dinosaur (seeing as how it was said to be alive just a few thousand years ago, because you aren't a young earth creationist this should be ridiculous to you) it serves no point to give that reference to the bible because dinosaurs have been extinct for some 65? million years.Originally Posted by BIGSTIC
Wow, I've never heard of this discovery before, vastly interesting.
A dead dinosaur with flesh intact found on a beach in 1925, amazing.

Yes they have, the end of the Cretaceous period basically marks the end of the dinosaurs, which was 65 million years ago (the earth is 4.6 billion years ago to put that into perspective). Radiometric dating is used to test the dinosaur remains, as well as their layering in the earth, and they are all older than 65 million years. I'm not sure what kind of undeniable proof you are looking for here. Who exactly is Jack Horner anyway?What i am saying is... have dinos been extinct for 65 million years?

Yes, they ALL died 65 million years ago. They're all accounted for.
Yeah, looks like what my friend was preaching to me...
"Carbon dating is wrong, dinosaur bones mixed with sediment that was that old due to the earth shifting, Do you have any Idea how much the dirt in the earth moves????"
Then 10 minutes later
"How do you explain bones being found from the same dinosaurs in the arctic as in the hot tropics"
Um, all the continents were connected at one period or something
"Uhhh NO, the Earth cant move around like that!"
Man, good fucking times.
Ok, how about this then. If the Bible has sketchy descriptions of dinosaurs, how come none of the other records from 2000+ years ago mention them? Maybe they only survived in the vicinity of the Fertile Crescent, and only popped out of their underground cryogenic hibernation long enough to get seen by a few Jewish guys and then went back into the cave, which of course sealed itself back up.
You know, according to Solipsism, nobody has any undeniable proof of anything beyond the fact of their own awareness (which in turn implies one's existence). If you're allowed to believe that dinosaurs survived because nobody can prove they didn't, then I'm allowed to believe that nothing is real and I'm just imagining the whole world, because nobody can prove I'm not.
I believe you just started a Mindfuck. Inc 20pages of philosophy, religion, and utter nonsense.Originally Posted by Charla
Did you know that the Bible says that the behemoth moved his tail like a cedar? If this is so, how can it be a hippo?Originally Posted by Charla
What religion tries to disprove dinos? Ive never heard of that.
Evangelical Christians, they say dino's lived together with Adam and Eve or that they never existed at all.
Last night I wrote some stuff on this topic but I deleted it because I think I was overreacting a little bit but the more I read from this guy the more I wish I didn't delete my post.
There is alot of stuff that says dino's all died out 65 million gears ago, there are Strata layers, potassium-argon dating, as well as several other radiometric dating systems that all point to this.
But with a statement like this I guess I can't really expect much:
Here is undeniable proof of something, you being an idiot. "Blah blah blah carbon dating geology lecture" what the fuck? You don't even know what he talked about but rather instantly dismissed it because of your own delusional state. You're living in a fairy land. Dinos and man did not live together, if you're going to, as Adam on the Mythbusters would say; "substitute your reality and replace it with my own!" then fine, live in your delusion, but piss off in the mean time.What i am saying is... have dinos been extinct for 65 million years?

Here is an example of the strata,

For your hypothesis to be true, you would need to find human and dino fossils on the same level of strata, which has NOT happened, ever.
I'm sure I'm talking to a wall because no matter what is said you will go on believing your bullshit. I wish I could be so ignorant as to ignore everything science says just to appeal to my own ego. Fuck that.
I leave you with this so maybe you have a better understanding of what you're doing.
