That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard in my life. This question is solely based of the assumption that the story about the ark is not an absurd lie. If the fossils of dinosaurs are only about 6000 years old, we would have found a frozen dinosaur corps by now. We have found all sorts of other animals that have been frozen in glaciers. Including people.

A lot of people do not understand that Noah could of taken small baby dinosaurs on the Ark!!!!! They just look at the big full grown mature dinosaurs, which I do believe he could not of taken them because they would be too big.
The two creatures that are mentioned in the book of Job: Behemoth and Leviathan!!!! What are they??? God does describe them to Job and to the rest of the readers. Behemoth is a land creature that is compared to the dinosaurs, "Tail is strong as cedar," the way it eats and how big it is.
Leviathan is a huge sea creature, which does not compare to anything today, its possible that it might be a whale, but from the way God describes it, I don't think it is.
As with other creatures that were have said to be around creation that are extinct, they are so many animals, but then again there are ones mentioned in the Bible that are questionable:
Flying Serpents and Unicorns are two of those creatures.
The story about the Unicorn is that this was the first animal to have been named by Adam. It is said that Noah took the animal on the Ark with him, but threw the animal off the ark and it died in the water. Why?? Because the Unicorn was so full of pride, which that pride came from the unicorn being the first named animal.
I have also read too that when the people were translating the Bible from Hebrew and the anicent languages that they mistranslated the words, but I don't think that is the case. Afterall, the bible had to be approved by God Himself, before everything was finalized. Wouldn't you want to overlook your book that you wrote through men?

Remember that dinosaurs existed millions of years ago. By the time Adam and Eve were created, dinosaurs were extinct, otherwise Adam and Eve would have been eaten alive!! The Bible contains stories of thousands of years not millions. I heard my friend say that they are indeed in the Bible but they are called "dragons", but I have not read that part so I cannot confirm this. God Bless

It is a proven fact that they could all fit. And Noah did not round them up God sent them to Noah. It took 120 years to build that ark, and Noah gave up everything he had to build that ark, cause he believed God and knew that he would loose it all anyway if he didnt build the ark. It is a story of faith and trust more than any thing i believe. And there are so many claims of how it can only be considered a myth but do not let the enemy decieve you my friend it,s true it happened.

And unicorns! And dragons!
And what about all the fishies? The animals that can only live in freshwater vs animals who require seawater. What a MESS it would have been when all the water turned into one big tank? Can you imagine that happening on a smaller scale at Petco?

Noah's Ark is there so that they can prove that evolution didn't happen because "god" created all of the animals and Noah "saved" them. Nothing "evolved", every living organism had been created by "god". That's the real meaning behind Noah's Ark.

Actually they all did fit (including the dinosaurs). Remember that at that time there may have only been one pair of wolves that would become the parents to all the species of dogs, wolves, etc in that part of the "tree". It's very probable that there were significantly fewer species than what we have today.
I recommend the following article that explains this concept.

If God had created them they would have been on the ark. If man was created in God's image then they were probably pretty smart. It is my guesstamation that they had DNA splicing down to an art form and that mankind "created" dinosaurs. This is why God left them out of the Ark. But why Noah didn't kill those two mosquitoes I'll never know.

let's see, it is valid question. but then I always wonder how come the predatory animals didn't eat the prey. And if were kinda short notice how did Noah corral all those animals.....did God intuned them to behave while on the ark? If God could do that, he could not be incapable of accomodating them on the ark.

Much of the value of stories like the Garden of Eden and Noah's Ark in their ability to explain truths about God, rather than their record of historical fact.
