if what the bible says is true which i do believe then how come there are no human bones dating back that long ago and also if all of the dinosaurs were wiped out because of an ice age wouldn't humans of been as well?

Ding, ding, ding, give the lady a prize.
Too big to have fit on Noah's ark, they did exist we have lots of fossil evidence, perhaps a day to an omnipresent god WAS millions of years.
You are seeking your own spiritual path instead of accepting the one you were simply spoon-fed. The path may very well lead you to where you started. Best wishes on your journey.

I've used this as an answer before, but it shows a valid point.
You have to picture this... there is water above the ground covering everything (the atmosphere is water)(this is illustrated in Genesis). Recent studies have shown that this setting would create in increase in oxygen and pressure and would allow for miraculous growth. These studies have been conducted in i think what is called a "hyperbaric chamber". Somehow, with increased pressure and oxygen, animals can heal at rapid rates and live much longer (which would explain the extreme age of OT people). Dinosaurs are lizards and lizards never stop growing. Fossils show what can happen to lizards when they are grown in this environment. To prove the size of people and animals, Genesis 6:4 says "There were giants on the earth in those days...".
I know this may sound far fetched, but look into this hyperbaric chamber thing. In China, they've grown a cherry tree to almost 3 times its normal size.

Honestly, we dont really know.
Presumption by open-minded christians is that god created dinosaurs long before man, as a precurser to creating man.
We know factually without any extra science that Dinosaurs are a fact. Therefore its unlikely man would have survived during that time considering the nature of some of the dinosaurs was meateating...though some were vegtarian too (presumed).
Its totally possibly that the Bible is not the totality of existance of gods work.

There is an overwhelming amount of evidence to support the claim that dinosaurs roamed the earth (fossils). However, there is absolutely NO evidence that would lead anyone to believe that "adam" or "eve" or a talking snake ever lived.
The bible is nothing more than superstitious nonsense.

Re: Genesis 1: 21,22. God created all forms of life spiritually before he breathed life in them (Genesis 2:19). After He formed man, he physically formed all the beasts, the fowls, and the fishes and then had Adam name them.
We have physical proof that dinosaurs once roamed this planet; the museums are full of this proof. Where exactly they roamed is speculation based on paleontology finds.

Religion and science chose to not intermingle. So, what you need to do is decide what you will chose to beleive in. Scientific proven fact, or faith? I have chosen to believe in the scientific and religious beleifs. Here's my take: 7 days to God, could be a billion years of evolution to us. So, yes, I chose to believe that there were dinosaurs and that we evolved. But I also chose to believe that God had everything to do with it. A work in progress of sorts. By the way, not put down mine and your religious beleifs, but I chose not to believe in every word that is printed in the bible. WHy? Because the bible was written by man, with inspiration from GOD. Who's to say that those men didn't put their own perspective into the bible? I chose to use the bible as more of a guidline on how to live my life. I suppose I'm rambling, huh?

the bible presnets "giant lizards" aka dinosaurs in the book of job chapters 40-42. adam and eve were the first "humans" on earth, before that cavemen, dinosaurs,etc. roamed the earth. God's "7" day creation could be millions and millions of years in "human" years> "science discovers God's awesome (and complicated) creation!!

the bible is laughable. creationists will make the claim that it describes dinosaurs in the book of job.,,,,,,,,,, only,, one minor difference,,, that they are called "dragons", and also that they breathe fire. it's hilarious to hear christians try to explain away their discrepancies with stories like these.

You are right. There is no religious proof of dinosaurs. Leaves you, if you are religiously inclined, in quite a predicament doesn't?
