Do religious people hate when TV do stuff about dinosaurs as it destroys their beliefs?

Question

except the flinstones perhaps.

Answer 1

I'm a very religious person, but I must tell you I don't hate TV when they do shows on dinos... At least, not because of that ;)

btw, your question isn't perfectly correct. I mean, a person can be religious AND englightened AND well-educated.
So, no sane person will deny a scientific fact, will they?

Answer 2

They had a thing on the Daily Show a long time ago where they interviewed a "creation scientist" who insisted that men and dinosaurs co-existed, and he actually thought the Flintstones was an accurate portrayal of history. When they showed Fred using the dinosaur as hedge clippers, or riding around in dinosaurs, he said those things might actually have happened. I kid you not. It would've been funnier if it weren't so sad.

Edit: The reason dinosaurs conflict with the Bible is because a literal interpretation of the Bible says the world is 6,000 years old. First of all, we know that dinosaurs died out millions of years ago, not thousands. And secondly, that implies that dinosaurs and humans coexisted, which we also know to be totally untrue.

Answer 3

I do not comprehend what dinosaurs has to do with religious people. They existed and are now extinct to the most part. New species come and old ones go. This is continuous because of evolution. Yes, I said evolution made by God when he created all things. Just because a group of animals is extinct has no relationship to believing in God.

Answer 4

"Stuff about dinosaurs" has no effect on our beliefs. Our beliefs, as Christians, are that Jesus Christ died for our ssins and rose again on the third day, and that anyone who turns to God, is baptised in water and The Holy Spirit, and lives a life loyal to God will have Eternal Life. Dinosaurs do not come into it.

Answer 5

Just because man gets it wrong concerning dinosaurs, doesn't mean the faith of christians is destroyed.

Actually, faith in God should be reinforced because sooner or later, man makes a public aknowledgement about his error in dinosaur dating.

There has been proof physical that man and dionosaurs existed side by side!

Job lived before the flood, and in the book of Job, chapters 40 and 41 speaks of dinosaurs and man existing together.

Answer 6

Dinosaurs are facts, they are not a theory open to debate. Any christian that believes the earth is 6000 years old is standing in defiance of logic, reason, and sound judgement. Choosing to ignore basic truths such as this is not faith, it's ignorance at the highest degree.

Answer 7

The existence of dinosours doesnt discard the existence of GOD, even with the existence of Sarcosuchus. There are A WHOLE LOT of species of different animals not written in the Bible, and that doesnt mean that GOD does not exist because it is not mentioned in the Bible. Did you read butterfly? Or Wildebees? Or a Tasmanian Devil?

Answer 8

not all religious people (which is something like 90% of earth) disbelieve in dinosaurs. even those that do probably don't feel that TV 'doing stuff' can destroy their beliefs.

Answer 9

No,because evolution (aka EVILution) is a false religion in itself.It ALL based on theory and not facts. There is proof of dinosaur tracks being found in the same layer of bedrock as human footprints.(in Texas)
I find it very much easier to believe in a Creator than believing we all came from a ROCK.

Answer 10

I haven't found anything reguarding dinosaurs that I don't believe.

Well, except the part about them having lived millions of years ago, since "scientific" evidence, such as Carbon-14 dating, doesn't even support this premise.
