That what some may think were "cave men" were in fact early decendants like say Adam, Eve, Seth, Cain, Jacob, and so forth. I mean they could not have been too bright in those days. Job Came before Noah. And he spoke of the behemouth that drank up the sea and had a huge tail and such. Could have been a Dinosaur. Then came along Noah Who built an ark, God directed both male and female Beasts and Fowl upon. Dinosaurs may have been To BIG or maybe God just decided human kind was better off without. So they died in the flood. There is a Theory for you and it's just as good as all the other ones. What do i win And when can i sign my next book.

the big problem with the noah story is not what happened to the dinosaurs, but what happened to the koalas.
how do you think the koalas got all the way from austalia to get onto the ark? how do you think they managed to cross the indian ocean and then the sahara desert?
what about the pangolins? and the polar bears?
you talk about the noah story as if there was only one thing about it which is very silly.
i think there are rather a lot.

Nice thought. At least you are doing that which most fail to do, Think.
I would suggest you read more carefully the words in the bible and also do look at some of the evidence that is available in the scientific world. After doing that, then try to put things in a better order before writing a new book. If not about all you will accomplish is to start a new religious order named after you and a new possible theory to be argued about. If that is good enough for you, start writing the book while I am still smiling with you I hope.

Sure, it's a theory, and somewhere in Genesis there's talk of abandoning figleaves for animal furs, so the whole cave-men as early Eden descendants is a nice tie-in. Timing's a bit dodgy though - evolutionary experts tend to date the "rise of man" - and indeed of large mammals generally - as being in the aftermath of the dinosaurs' extinction, on the basis that only small creatures would have been likely to survive the cataclysmic event that killed the dinosaurs. So the idea of "everybody onboard the ark...except you dinosaurs, you're not coming!" would probably be a good Christain-slanted fictional story, but doesn't (excuse the half-pun) hold water as a factual theory to tie up Genesis and Evolution. I like that people are trying to bridge the gaps and thinking about it though. Thanks for that :o)

No, Because it's 10's and 100's of thousands of years instead of 6000 years, and Dinosaurs did not live with humans. Also, the dinosaurs were not around when any flood hit the humans, there would be evidence, you wouldn't find undisturbed Mayasaur nests if there was a flood, would you? Also, the bones wouldn't be as fossilized. And the bible said all beasts, not just gazelles and cows and birds.
Creationism down the tube. I used to believe that crap.

Nice theory. Too bad none of the scientific evidence supports it. Fact: Man came millions of years after the dinosaurs.

Bingo, baby! I think what you are talking about is the intelligent design theory, but I agree that evolution and creationism are both correct. Creationism is a tad more poetic and crude, but evolution is not cold hard fact either. Technology has given us better tools, but humans are not infallible.
Add to that translation upon translation and outdated terminology. Both contain fundamental truth, and we limit ourselves as humans not to consider that both, in their own way, are the orgin of our species.
Yay for you!!

Many turn to observe a Christian showing signs of stress. The religion produces silence and also the swan song.

Homo sapiens weren't around at the time of the Dinosaurs. So that theory is kind of debunked.

Good one...
I suppose it is only fitting that the dead Dino became the oil in the Middle-East to fuel this war and usher in the end time.
Amazing... It must be another miracle...
