Dinosaurs: Different Theories

[Rebmilc]

Perhaps the dinos that lived in water didn't have to go on the ark they would have survived the flood, natural habitat and all that. After all Noah didn't take any fish on the ark, or any wales on the ark and they survived.

Just a thought

And as an afterthought they say that the earths surface is two thirds water and that the moon has been explored more than some of these regions, who knows whats out there.

Firstly, there is evidence that transitional species existed, and given the large amount of surrounding evidence, it is reasonable to presume that the missing link did exist

You can re-hash it all you like, you're still making assumptions

I would contend that there is a relevant and distinct difference between a baseless assumption and a logical deduction. As, I think, would most people.

Possibly - there were marine dinosaurs - but something like brontosaurs couldn't have lived in the water, even if it could've been able to swim.

I think they were on the ark ( babies)

!! How stupid I am! Here I was, wondering how an old geezer could have built a boat big enough to hold two specimens of all the animals of our planet, some as huge as elephants or dinosaurs, and then someone comes on this forum and gives me the solution out of the blue... THEY WERE BABIES!! It's obvious that while 1.75 million couples of living beings could not have fit if they were adults. Thank you, carrielles!!

I do not think most species of dinos were on the ark. You have to be real careful which definition of dino you use. If you hold all dinos as pre-historic, none of those species were on the ark. If you include crocodiles alligators, etc. then yes, some species of dino were on the ark. The problem with your very sarcastic quote is that there were no where near 1.75 million species of land or air animals alive at the time of the flood.

How do you sqaure the idea of pre-historic dinosaurs with the literal word of Genesis, i.e: all animals went onto the Ark?

And I would suggest that the 1.75 million species came from an inclusion of insects, birds and other smaller lifeforms of which there are myriad species. These are all still animals.

I don't really have anything to say on this subject, just wanted to say HI EVE!

Hi Billie!

Sure you don't want to venture an opinion while you're here?

Dinosaurs are an interesting case study in the fossil record, because they appear between two very sharp "cut-offs" in the fossil record. One the End-permian extinction, before which we find zero dinosaurs. And the other the K-T Boundary extinction, after which we find zero dinosaurs. Flood geology that. Of course, there are plenty such examples, dinos are just famous.

I've never heard of people who don't think they existed.

I believe they existed and humans existed at the same time.

I like that. Can I borrow that one?

Sure!

If it helps to get the truth across that modern scientific "proof" is nothing more than man's opinon and never has been nor will be fact- use it as often as you need to

Just because a bunch of "experts" say it's so- doesn't make it so -

Romans 1:22

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools

....however, because God says something is so- it always is so
