It is a known fact that Wooly Mammoths, Sabre Tooth Tigers, and humans (for example, there are many more) existed AFTER the time of the dinosaurs. If your Creationism theory is true, did God just create animals throughout the history of the Earth as He saw fit?
For example: here is God's thoughts "gee, all of my dinosaurs went extinct due to that asteroid strike! In retrospect, I probably shouldn't have aimed that rock at Earth to see what would happen! Well, my toys are all gone now, so let's make some new ones. (with much flair and chest pounding) LET THERE BE WOOLY MAMMOTH!"
And wooly mammoth there was.
Am I on track? Have I missed anything here? God just rains animals down onto Earth as he sees fit? Remember, there is NO SCIENTIFIC DISAGREEMENT as to the order: first dinosaurs, then humans (much later).

Whoaa...let me say this. I DON'T want websites, nor what you have heard over the grapevine (debates and such). YOUR OWN INDEPENDENT THOUGHTS PLEASE! I have put a great deal of thought into this over the last 15 years or so...it is insulting to just drop a website on me (I know how to google with the best). Just your own personal opinion is fine.
Free Spirit: I like your comments...I know, I wasn't implying they were toys in a literal sense. But there is an answer to your question. Nature EVOLVES in wonderful ways so that species can coexist symbiotically, and also so that species can pass on their traits to their offspring, a process called natural selection, closely associated with survival of the fittest. Without the bee, where is the flower? Without wings, where is the bird?

lol
You guys are funny!! I'm not a raving lunatic, and you ARE NOT answering my question. It is a simple question:
Does God rain down animals when he sees fit?
I'm getting bible verses now (should have expected it). Please, the bible won't answer this question. Only your personal opinion can. I'm not even asking you to prove creationism false, or evolution false for that matter...I just want to know if the expression "it's raining cats and dogs" has a literal translation when it comes to God putting animals on the Earth!

Evolution has no rational content or validity whatsoever. It is a fantasy world for the deeply deluded and grossly ignorant. It is so stupid that the fact that even one person believes in evolution makes you wonder does anyone take the time to check out the facts for themselves anymore? There is so much scientific evidence available today to prove "creation", that you have to be self-deluded and brainwashed and ignorant to still think evolution has validity.
God can do anything he wants, even create new species whenever and wherever he wants IF he wants, but I think still the best account of when the animals were created is in the book of Genesis, I'll go with wooly mammoths got on the ark... lol And by the way, they have found human footprints inside dinosaur footprints, preserved from when they were made.

Do a thourough study of that subject in the bible and you will find that the Earth is much older than most Christians think.
For Example, there is a description of Satan (Lucifer aka Heylel in the Hebrew) before he fell, in which he was walking about the earth. Satan fell before the creation of man!
Also it can be determined that after the fall of the Angels on Earth, God laid wasted to the planet, and shrouded it in darkness all before the man was created.
What you are reading in Genesis (Creationism) is the resetting of the Earth for the exsistence of man, not the Creation. Again, Genesis is not the first (oldest) book of the bible.
Remember the bible was not written in English, and a lot of concepts have been lost in translation. If you study and refer to the orginal language, and see what exactely was the author trying to convey.

Hi!
First of all, we need to find out this:
Did human beings live with dinosaurs?
Yes, they did because many archeological discoveries of different regions of earth had drawings which feature dinosaur-like animals! I mean these things date to about 2000 years ago.
Some even feature men holding spears, attempting to kill dinosaurs!
In China alone, there are archeological drawings which feature dinosaurs.
In Malaysian areas as well.
Something that might interest you is this, dinosaurs are in the bible:
Job 41:1 "Can you draw out Leviathan with a fishhook or press down his tongue with a cord?
One of the reasons why DINOSARURS went extinct, people killed them for many things e.g.man ego, medicine, meat etc, check this verse that talks about Liviathan, a dinosaur:
Job 41:6 Will traders bargain over him? Will they divide him up among the merchants?
Continue reading it:
This dinosaur had scales:
Job 41:15 His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal.

There is a lot of things I don't know or understand, it's cool.
Oh and I wanted to let you know I like your aviatar and I think it's funny that ur upside down and ur name is just hangin hehe clever.
Hmmm... I don't think anything on Earth or that was on Earth was simply, "a toy". Each had or has it's own purpose in life. The cool mystery is why?

read the creation scientists writings -they have never lost a debate on campuses or else where verses the evolutionists-and read the book of Job it talks about God satan, and dinasours -it was written before mose wrote of the beginning of mankind-not by accident with age(had to have something create it if it has age-and becoming alive by Jesus or without even a fairy and perfect dna blueprint to reproduce its own kind

well,let me try and answer as much i was able to understand your q..
I don't know about God creating creatures and stuff...ya but once we are born as h beings, we get to know so many things that perhaps other creatures may not understand or we don't understand for that matter...
All of us are here for a purpose right..just as you grow mentally and intellectually you get to know things better..that's one thing..hope you were able to get something..
Creationism in itself may answer your question..you see..it's all in the hands of the CREATOR..don't you think so?
