Why do the books and writtings so many people hang thier faith on not even mention the 100 million years that dinosaurs ruled the earth . Maybe , just maybe the people putting these words of god down in print really didn't do anything more than compile a group of stories together they heard at the campfire and called it important .

Perhaps god wasn't happy the first time around. He made the dinosaurs in his own image... and they went rampaging around sinning all over the place..... and god threw a strop and armageddoned them..... sulked for about 60 million years.... then decided to try again with the same lump of rock.
Must have happened a few hundred times though.... because there is a lot of life that has gone extinct throughout this planet's history in random disaster events....
Maybe we should all follow god's example. If you truly love someone.... destroy them.

The dinosaurs died off after the flood, as the earth had changed so much, they couldn't survive. The Bible actually DOES talk about dinosaurs, only by a different name. The word dinosaur, meaning terrible lizard, wasn't created until the late 1800's. The names that the Bible speaks about are behemoth and leviathan, which the tail of one of these animals was a big as a tree trunk! Sounds big to me. A hundred million years?! Get real!! It takes more faith to believe in that than in creation. To think that a big bang created all this. Wow, that takes a lot of belief. Just imagine a junk yard blowing up, for no reason, and everything coming together to form a perfect Cadillac! It's amazing the stories that the scientists have twisted together in order to come up with something that explains away God. After all, if we can get rid of God, we don't have to be responsible for our actions. We can just say that we're all animals, and are just acting on instinct, thus releasing us from blame for our actions. Science hasn't really proved their case against God. They've only reinforced it. And, EVEN IF it was just a bunch of stories (which they're not), I'd still have a hard time believing that Big Bang theory. Did you get that? THEORY. Meaning it can't be proven. Yet God CAN be proven. Just look around you. No big bang could ever create all that you see. <*)))><

It amazes me how evolutionists can talk and talk about 100 million years but can't comprehend the concept of eternity. The dinosaurs were created along with everything else during creation roughly 6000 years ago. As man multiplied on the face of the earth, there was no reason to have such large animals to keep the flora and fauna in check so they died out. As for the group of stories idea, did you realize that the Bible is one of the most accurate books that archeologists havce found to discover new archeological sites. Seems funny that a bunch of campfire stories would bother to be that accurate.

If you do a comprehensive study of the Bible, you will find that the earth was first created as a place of worship. Lucifer was put in charge. Lucifer started thinking he was like God and started creating things on his own. God found out and cast him out. There was a mighty war. The first creation was destroyed (the dinosaurs, perhaps were in this first creation)
After a period of time, Jesus wanted to try again. So he said. "Let there be light." The word let means to allow to happen, not to create from whole cloth, so the world we know now was the second creation. There will be one more (Amazing isn't it?--God's perfect number) when the new heaven comes.

The Bible mentions dinosaur-like animals in Job 41

to answer your question is the dinosaurs dead? yes. but its relatives are alive.
another thing your questions sounds like you do not believe in Creationism, for the sake of argument, lets accept that big bang theory and other anti-creationism theories are true, then you'll have to accept that you came from nowhere. or maybe the statue of liberty, the great wall of china and the Eiffel tower was always there and nobody created it. you might answer that you were created then you should believe in creationism. we all know that you came from your parents and not from nowhere.

It is written that God made ALL the animals! In fact they were made before man.
Just because the people that wrote the scriptures, and the people of that time didn't have college classes on the dinosaurs and active archeological digs in progress doesn't mean that dinosaurs didn't exist.
Are you angry about something, what is it?

It Say's on the first day, on the second day and so on. How long was a biblical day? As God was making man perhaps he went through all these different steps to get to man. That's called evolution, I see no problem with creation and evolution side by side.

Could be........but since our species has only been around since the ice age and dinosaurs weren't all that interested in writing things down......I'm going to stick to the basic tenets of mankind.
You believe what you want, though....it's your God given right.

The flood.
There have been found dinosaur footprints next to human one in a river bed. Perhaps science and archeolog (facts at least) don't support that they were seperate
