If dinosaurs aren’t real, I’m pretty ticked I had to do a presentation on an iguanadon in 7th grade in front of my science class.

Didn't the ancient Hebrew as found in the Old Testament teach the earth was flat?

I think the Babylonians believed that the sun revolved around the earth and that the earth had a tunnel that the sun went through, that was what caused night time. They also had a number system based on 60 instead of 10's. We still use 60 min and seconds on our clocks. They provided us with the basics of algebra and medicines. So they were still pretty bright, just dull dull on some things, like me !

Not true.
God is the author of science and He's probably been saying "hurry up!" for some time as we humans are prone to initiate analysis paralysis in our projects.
Renowned theologians have historically been scientific and it's only been since the liberal theologians emerged on the scene two centuries ago that they claimed "science and God don't mix."
Sure they do.
I'm academically trained in science and theology and I'm cool with all of it, with God being the header under which ALL other things are placed....
not the 1700's version of anthropology (study of humans) emerging as the key category and God being under it.
Backards as granddad would say.

I have a 3 x 4 foot piece of shale in my basement. I got it from the roof rock in a mine in Indiana County Pa. I barred it down myself. It has amphibious tetrapod tracks criss crossing the rock. Actually two different kind of critters. The rock came from an area about 400 feet below the surface. These came from the Carboniferous Era, a couple hundred million years ago.

In 37 years working underground, I’d never seen anything like it. Folks from Pitt and Penn State Universities came to look at that area of the mine, it was full of tracks.

I’m just wondering what I’m gonna do with this big rock downstairs.

I had a religious guy tell me those fossils were made that way by God to test my faith in Him. Oil is the same way, made that way from day one. Pretty crazy philosophy if you ask me,

I was at Dinosaur, Colorado in '77 at the quarry and saw the dinosaurs. Am sure they have improved the settings by now but it was quite a site even then.

Never under stood why I'd idea of God making life then setting it though evolution was such a crazy one . Especially with as much as the Bibles has been changed around and edited, who to say there not some lost text somewhere that basically says " yeah God made bacteria then made that turn into this which turned into that so on and so on"

I think there is a strong possibility that the Bible isn’t concerned with dinosaurs...at all. If we spend our time trying to make it talk about dinosaurs, there is also a strong possibility that we won’t hear what the Bible is trying to communicate...at all. Lately I’ve had a growing sense that the Bible needs to be rescued from the stories we put in it. Where to start? I don’t know.

Here’s a picture I took inside the mine, nine years ago. These track were made by an amphibious tetrapod, that would have predated dinosaurs. These critters walked the earth a couple of hundred million years ago.

This area of the mine was full of tracks in the mine roof. Must have been a good crossing. Good place to catch one in a blind set.

I have two fossilized dinosaur eggs.
They came from a museum that was upgrading their collection and selling off multiple duplicates.

Dinosaurs and people definitely lived together. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand what wiped them out......Just ask yourself what has made every other animal go extinct in as far as we can go back? Humans with assistance from nature. I'm down for them to Jurassic Park them, wolly mammoths, Eastern Elk, American Lion and others.

Cant wait to find out who is right the Muslims, Hebrews, Catholics, Mormons, Native Americans, Orthodox and on and on and on which one is right just as well throw in the Druids. But I have found lots of fossil dinosaur bones and still wondering how Noah got all them critters on that boat.

Im pretty sure humans would be the extinct ones if they lived alongside dinosaurs.
