Is it just none of our concern?
They concerned man at one point in time.
They dident die off before man, man was created the same week the dinosores were.

The bible was written by man and was "inspiried" by God... *shrugs* So maybe dinosaurs were not important issue at the time. Who really cares about the ins and outs- it is a book for guidence just like all religious texts.

How do you know that? What I see in the creation story contained in the bible is 6 distinct periods of time which were called days. Not 6 days as we know them. There could have been eons between dinosaurs and man. Some day we can ask God directly these questions for now we need to focus on what is really important. Those things pertaining to our salvation. Repentance and Baptism. Livign the comandments and recieving all the nessesary ordinences of the Gospel.

It doesn't explain moose or starfishes either. It is not a book of zoology. Dinosaurs have nothing to do with the message of salvation, or with God's relationship to the human race.
Man was created millions of years after dinosaurs were extinct. This is fact. If it doesn't agree with your personal interpretation of the Bible, then it is your biblical interpretation that is flawed, not the objective truth.

Gen1:21 So God created the great sea monsters and every living creature that moves.......
In Numbers 21:6 we find the lord of the Bible sending "fiery serpents" to torment the people.
Malachi 1:3 states: "And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness."

What is there to explain. There are many animals that were in existence at one time that are not here any more.
The earth is running down. The evolutionist say the earth is improving, getting better. When in fact it is being used up.
We are after all in the LAST days.
Hebrews 1:2
Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, who he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds.

The Bible does not mention dinosaurs because there were no dinosaurs. The Bible does mention dragons. Many ancient cultures, even those that did not know each other (separated by time, space, and practical communication barriers) depict similar renderings of large dragons consistent with the fossil record.

That's like asking why doesn't my cars maintenance manual talk about dinosaurs. The Bible is a book about God and his interaction with and instructions to His people. There are zillions of things not talked about the Bible, yet it accomplished it's purpose.

The bible is about GOD not prehistoric animals.NO they were not created the same week. GOD VISUALIZED ALL OF HIS CREATION IN 6 DAYS,then he released the vision into manifestion through the big bang,where the process of creation is still continuing today. the expanding universe and evolution is the proof that GOD exists and is still in the process of creation.

Dinosaurs were living several million years before humans, where do you get the idea they were around the same time? Bible was written by men and they had no idea or technology to know about dinosaurs which were proved by their skeleton remains.

Because it's not a history book.
To the Lord a thousand years is as a day, and a day is as a thousand years (or 10 million for that matter).
