Adam and Eve came first - then the dinosaurs ate them. Just kidding. I couldn't resist. :-)

The dinosaurs came first. If you check out the Genesis account you will see the progressive steps that Jehovah took in creating the earth and the things found on the earth. Besides light, water, and vegetation, he then created the animals.Lastly, God created man. What's interesting is that the dinosaurs were vegetation eaters. Apparently they perished in the flood of Noah's day. Also, since the earth would not be consistently tropical anymore, and have the four seasons, dinosaurs weren't necessary anymore. That's why we find their skeletal remains, but no more of the actual creature. Or perhaps, God felt there would be no room on the ark for their immense size. (only kidding)

Adam and Eve existed, and the dinosaurs? not as we think of them as savage. When Adam and eve were alive the animals were all nice. I would say that Adam and eve existed simultaneous witht he dinosuars as they were both created on the sixth day. (that is, the dinosaurs that were created by God) other dinosaurs were made by amalgamation of different spieces of animals

A dinosaur is talked about in Job chp.40.He calls him Behemoth,read the description,it can be none other than a brontosaurus type.God tells Job I made him along with you.Which means at the same time as mankind.Check out the tail no other animal has a tail as strong as a cedar tree,and eats grass and stands in the river unmoved by the strong current.

Adam & Eve is a creation myth, meant to point to something that is beyond human understanding (the mystery of existence and the human condition: people tried to make sense of the world and existence). As far as man and dinosaurs, dinosaurs came way before -- their extinction was followed by a proliferation of mammals (dinos were reptiles) and eventually man developed.

i'm a Christian and that theory is inaccurate. If something the dinosaurs lived lengthy earlier Adam and Eve. I take that Genesis isn't a advent account yet a restore account of the earth after a mass extinction had surpassed off in the course of the Pleistocene-Halocene boundary about 12,000 years in the past. The earth itself is billions of years previous.

In which world? the world of science and evolution of the mythical world of the bible? Science : Dino beats man a billion years or so
Bible: Dino never existed or the excuse "a million years is but one day". Seriously the bible speaks about a God that is all knowing and all powerfull. Would someone like that really get a day confused with a million years? If he said a day he ment a day. If he ment a million years he would have said such.
For example when God warned Noah about a flood, it happend to the day that God said.
If God does not know time as we know it then he cannot be all knowing.

Well Adam and Eve didn't exist, so dinosaurs, of course.

Dinosaurs. because to god a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like a day. he really has no concept of time. so the beginning to god may have taken several billion years. and in this time many things may have existed as experiments.

Dinosaurs were real.
