Default The Dinosaurs.....

Can anyone who is a Christian explain to me the Dinosaurs.

The Bible says that God created us in his image. So did Jesus have an ugly brother who looked like a velosciraptor?

Also there is no mention in bible of dinosaurs at all. So was that a big mistake by god? only to reappear 35million years later with Noah & co. Er.............

Speaking of Noah, has anyone else realised what a stupid plan the flood plan was.

Think about it. Anything that can swim or fly got off without punishment! that wasn't the plan - the plan was to destroy it all!

What are you talking about? What does God's image, Jesus and dinosaurs have to do with one another?

God brought every creature that walked on the Earth into existence on day 6. Every land creature would probably include dinosaurs.

God said destroy everything that walks on land would be destroyed. Sea creatures were probably exempt since they didn't corrupt the land. And, I don't know of any birds that can remain in flight for a year without any food, do you?

Don't you know? The dinosaurs are the demons of satan, the bones are a reminder that hell exists..

Some good points there but most failed to understand british sense of humour. Oh well.

I think this proves that all religons are are philosphies with some good ideas and some bad ones.

But jesus does figure in most major religons though doesn't he?

I mean in christianity he's the Son of God - obviously his best film. But he is also in Islam as a prophet - mohammed is clearly top dog in this movie but jesus has a small cameo. I believe he also appears in Buddism as a distant relation to budda (but need to clarify this). And again in Judaism.

So who's telling the truth? I can't see how they can all be right?

Where does that say God destroyed the land animals (except seven or a pair of each kind, depending where you look) because they corrupted the land?
Hard to think those cute koala bears would be corrupting the land!
And if animals would corrupt the land, why would they be saved and allow to multiply, and then corrupt the land all over again?

Best regards, Bernard

I'm thinking that there would be huge masses of floating debris and trees and bloated carcasses for birds to land on. Come to think of it, maybe the odd human could have floated adrift on something too till he starved to death. Just a thought.
