Sure they did, son. The Bible says so. They didn't call them "dinosaurs" back then, but instead they were known as "leviathans" or "behemoths".
But, my science teacher says dinosaurs lived millions of years ago. Is that true?
Of course not, son.
Then how old are they?
Well, let's see. The Bible tells us [from Adam and Eve's family tree] that the Universe is only a few thousand years old. So dinosaurs had to have lived within the past few thousand years. That's simple logic, son.
Oh. So that means they were on Noah's Ark?
Absolutely! The Bible says two of every animal were brought [by God] to the ark. Dinosaurs were animals. So, using your logic again son, dinosaurs had to be on the ark.
Huh. So how come scientists say they're older than that? and died way before Jesus?
Well, son, they just make that up. Dinosaur bones don't have labels on them to tell how old they are. In fact, there is no proof whatsoever that the world and its fossil layers are millions of years old. No scientist saw dinosaurs die-
Dad!
No I'm serious. Scientists only find the bones in the here and now, and because many of them are evolutionists, they try to fit the story of the dinosaurs into their view.
That's sad. But I thought scientists were smart?
Sure, but they don't know everything. So they have to make stuff up to fit their beliefs. While you and I, we have the facts, straight from the Bible.
I don't want to be a scientist!
Ha! That's ok, son. It's better to be right, than smart. C'mon, wanna learn how to flip burgers like your Dad?
Yeah!


Spot on.

Straw man time again (you like doing this, don't you ).

I am not a creationist, as I believe in the Theory of Evolution (hope that doesn't make your head explode too much) - you do seem to love classifying people in simple categories, don't you, as it makes your raging and ranting so much easier.....

Peace be with you.

you so funny - you just posted that Russ stated something, using a picture to illustrate your point, then stated that he didn't say that; must be a new definition of logic I hadn't come across before.....

To be fair I got it wrong and you only stated that the bible 'mentions' dinosaurs and posted the link to ClarifyingChristianity and the cedar tailed thingies.

You didn't say you believed in it though. Do you though?

Your still not getting are you, let me recap how you came to be mistaken in the first place, then you may be able to work out the answer yourself.

By the way the bible doesn't mention dinosaurs either but they were around at the beginning of life on this planet.

Firstly, shall we go over what else you've got wrong while we're at it?

Secondly why do you care what I believe?
