Great question. For years the Churches and religious leaders tried to cover up the discovery of fossilized bones by selling the stories of the existence of DRAGONS. Then when more and more remains and fossils were found that could be proved to belong to something other than "dragons" religious leaders said they lived when Noah was around and were on board his ship. They must have just all died out was the story then. Then when carbon dating came along that proved that these creatures lived millions of years before Noah they fought to disprove carbon dating. Then when foot prints of many of these creatures started being discovered in layers of soil traced back millions of years they tried to disprove that too. When they couldn't they started changing their stories to " It doesn't say there weren't dinosaurs." or "God can do whatever he wants."
Every time that a new discovery comes along to lend proof to the existence of evolution, the religious supporters change their story to fit the problem. Religion has its stories changed like babies have their diapers changed. Remember when it was a sin to eat meat on Friday? Well that has changed. Do you know what the meaning of heretic is? It comes from the Greek word "herisis" which means "to think for oneself" Thousands of people have been put to death for simply using their own brain. They used to burn mentally disturbed people because they were "possessed by the devil". They blamed the black plague on Jews and mentally challenged people and slaughtered them in the name of God. Now we know that it was caused by a bacteria carried by a flea that was on the backs of rats and transferred to cats and dogs coming in contact with people. According to the dates that religious "scholars" use to set a time line with the "great flood" it would have been impossible for dinosaurs to have lived in proximity to modern day human beings. But I'm sure the "scholars" have an explanation all cooked up for that one too.
All my life I've heard that "the end is near". Remember Y2K? The new millennium? THAT was supposed to be the end too. If you get enough people together that want to have power over others they could make up an old "sheep skin" or "parchment" that said the world was created by the tooth fairy and the tooth fairy does really exist. Their are people who either can't or don't want to think for themselves. So to stay out of "harms way", (Exp: The inquisitions, Armenian genocide by the Muslims ) the cowardly and the weak minded would buy the tooth fairy belief.

Myths and legends abound within every race on Earth. From every continent were man arose stories have been told about monsters, giants, and beings from the sky. There is a vain of truth through-out these stories, every one having similarities between early civilisations. All of the stories have comparable elements, that the earlier civilisations were destroyed, completely wiped out. Was that the end of the dinosaurs?. Is this were the development of consciousness arose?.
And why do all pre-history events link one another across the Globe, when no one knew the other ever existed?.

without genuine new evidence we can only conjecture, but if the theory that dinosaurs were completly wiped out by a giant asteroid then any human beings would have been too.
which begs the question was the garden of eden after this, and therefore adam and eve.

None. Dinosaurs have been used by God in preparing the earth for guy. They have been large processors of organic and organic factors--changing the tough ecosystem of till now earth into one suitable for human existence. on an identical time as fundamentalist christians prepare that the earth became made in six literal 24-hour days or six a million,000-year days, the Bible does no longer say that. The Bible says God created the heavens and the earth and then took 6 time classes (which he referred to as days) to prepare the earth for existence. It does say that he made the earth in 6 of days yet by reading the Bible intently, we can see that they have been lots longer than 24 hours by way of fact the seventh day continues to be going! particular, the Bible says that 1000 years to guy is nearly an afternoon to God (2 Peter 3:8, Psalms ninety:4). notwithstanding it additionally says that 1000 years to guy is like an eye fixed in the night (Psalm ninety:4) which in Bible circumstances became 3 hours! If that have been literal, that could recommend that an afternoon of God may be 24,000 human years. nicely, which one is it? 24 hours, a million,000 years or 24,000 years? Fundamentalists forget approximately approximately that God is a lot greater desirable than people and his days are lots greater desirable (and longer) than ours. we are saying "in Jesus' day". Does that recommend that Jesus' "day" became basically one a 24-hour day? No, he lived approximately 33-a million/2 years. So the the "day" became purely an illustrative be conscious (like a simile, a metaphor or a hyperbole) to describe a term (the Bible calls God a Rock--is he a stone? It calls us sheep--are we literal sheep or people?) His expertise is to date above us that he makes use of words we can relate to for us to understand what he's talking approximately. So we don't comprehend precisely how long each and on a daily basis became--they could have each and each been of diverse lengths--in all risk tens of millions of years each and each. tens of millions of years could have previous between the time the dinosaurs had died off and Adam & Eve have been created. They have been long previous by the time Adam & Eve have been created in the backyard of Eden. in lots of circumstances each physique is sentimental approximately what they have been taught on condition that they have been youthful and don't want to have self belief something diverse (this befell with the Jews of Jesus day, the individuals of the middle a while, and it keeps to right away). yet reading the Bible intently and using the coolest judgment that God put in us, he can prepare us the two precise and gratifying solutions.

Dinosaurs died out about 100 million years before anthropoid apes emerged on the planet and it was several million years after that before mankind evolved. If dinosaurs existed, which they obviously did then Genesis must be wrong.

Dinosaurs did exist in those days. Job mentions some about it. Dinosaurs wasn't mentioned much for they help no importance. I am not so sure if dinosaurs was like how you see on tv. Cause there is no mention of people living in fear of these animals.
