Please read my words carefully:
If you see footmark in the sand, you'll say that someone passed from here...
If you see a piece of dog sh*t on the ground, you'll say that a dog passed from here...
So what about the enormous universe, the sky, stars, planets, earth and all the beauty in it, doesn't it lead to that someone made it?!!!
Some people say that everything is created by itself after the big-bang... I won't ask you about what caused the big-bang, but I'll ask you a simple question:
If you take all the letters of the alphabet, multiples of them, and you threw them randomly on the floor. Do you expect (by a chance of one in infinity) to get a poem like shakespear's??!!
Can't you see how organized our universe is, the planets, the eco-system on earth, look even in your own body... Can you control your heart-beat? Can you control your breath while you're sleeping? Who stopped your eye-lashes from growing after reaching a certain length? Who told the baby turtles to move towards the sea and not to the earth after they come out of their eggs? Who taught the bird how to make nests?
My friend, think with your heart and brain. If you're still lost, think about the following:
Do you know how to play safe?
Your point:
If there's no God and you do all what you want in life, then nothing will happen to you after life. But if there was God and you were mistaken, then you'll blame yourself FOREVER...
Believer's point:
If there's God and I followed His commands in life, then I'll be in Heaven after life FOREVER. But if there was no God and we're mistaken, then nothing bad will happen to us after life...
Now you know how to play-safe, in case you're not convinced?

I'm not an atheist.
I'm trying to discover just what your question is, and I think you are asking how we explain prehistoric animals.
It is my opinion that Genesis, which describes the entire creation in a chapter and several verses of a second, is giving us a very condensed version of how God created the world.
God has a number of tools at his disposal, including evolution, which is scientifically observable in animal and plant life today.
Many scientists are also Christians or religious Jews or other religions and don't have a problem reconciling God and science. Neither do I.
You are free to accept or reject God as you wish, however it is my belief that a human has a better chance of surviving a jump from an airplane without a parachute than the world would have of being developed in its present form by accident.
It seems to me there has to be some kind of intelligence behind all this, and I choose to give the credit to God.

The confusion many atheists have unfortunately is that Christiniaty and evolution are noncompatiable, that is not true. There are many possibilities to your question, but I'll just give you three:
a) God created the universe and let prehistory run and man develop into "modern man", at a certain point when he deamed fit (the earth had dveloped enough as had man), he gave man a soul and that was our "true" creation.
b) God created the universe and let the world go until he was ready to insert man into it (there is minimal evidence for the existence of man past 10,000 ago. What, is there like two monkey/ deformed human skeletoons?)
c) There was no prehistory, God created man with the world, and from there dinosaurs died off and life evolved to what it is today.

Don't be so human-centric. God created this universe and all those beyond. Why is the creation of human race something special in the time/space continuum? Have you ever pondered the vastness of space? it take light 12 minutes to get from the Sun to the Earth. LIGHT! In the time is takes to say "Bless you" light circles the Earth 8 times. So imagine the distance of the stars... their light takes millions or billions of years to reach us... that is a living record of prehistory... just look at the sky. God created all of that... not just you and me.
There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of God.

God created the earth and the heavens (including the visible universe) at the same time Gen 1:1). God created other beings before He created Adam about six thousand years ago. That is why there is evidence of other creatures existing berore Adam. But before Adam these creatures ceased to exist. These prehistoric creatures which I think you refer to died in a disaster which happened before Adam (Gen 1:2). Your question answered?

God hasn't ever been human. diverse human beings on the instantaneous imagine in the adventure that they call Jesus "God" then they can make an "photo" of God and get away with it, disobeying the 2d Commandment. yet they are nonetheless ALL contained in the incorrect. we do not comprehend what God sounds like. Jesus were given the respect to be the Christ because he became the in basic terms angel that not in any respect sinned. the position God got here from no one is conventional with! yet God did create ALL!

One thing u need to know is that the creation of the earth and man is beyond mental understanding but it is through faith that people comprehend so it is dificult to explain to an athiest coz he does not believe.

This question has been asked and answered repeatedly. Long volumes and paragraphs of answers. Why not go read some of them instead of posing already asked (and answered) questions.
