Creationists, for your "theory" to be true, dinosaurs and humans MUST have interacted correct?

Question

But in fact, there is NO evidence that dinos and humans or even hominids ever interacted. In fact, the fossil record is clear. Almost a million years went by between the fall of dinosaurs and the rise of the mammals.
So the only place that humans and dinos ever co-existed is in mythology, movies and comic strips like B.C.
Making your "theory" utter bunk.

(I use the word "theory" in quotes because you clearly have NO idea what the word means in scientific terms...)

Thank you Don for providing YET another example of pious fraud. Not only are the supposed "tracks" all fakes, but people like you who continue to say they are real are only spreading more lies.
But hey, that's christianity for you...

dmjrev.
Could you tell us then why ALL of these supposed "dino and human" tracks are utter fakes and frauds? Because they are. Not a single one is real.
But you knew that of course. Because creationism has NO basis in reality. So it has to try and make it up as it goes along. Doesn't work.

Answer 1

Well...

Using their logic, you could argue that a creator placed the fossils in the ground and that dinosaurs never even existed. God creates everything, including the fossil record.

It's a ridiculous argument, but it's completely possible in a creationist's line of logic. You can't really argue that either without saying that the whole "creator" argument is bunk, which you'll never win. I'm with you on this, but I've heard people say the above argument. I'm astonished every time. Why would a creator come up with imaginary fossils to animals that never existed? Only God knows. Stupid circular "logic."

Answer 2

Wrong. I know that there are lots of so-called Christians who say the Bible states that this earth is about 6000 yrs. old. Thats bunk. The Bible states that the earth is billions and billions of years old. The Bible does not conflict whatsoever with science.
Now, the Word states (IIpeter;3) that there are three earth ages.
The first one is past. The second one is now. The third will be for those who make it after judgement. When you read of Adam and Eve, God was not creating the world for the first time, he was refurbishing it after it was destroyed in the great war where satan rebelled. The very first verse in Genesis says "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.(period). He doesn't state when - just in the beginning. There is an entire age within that, billions and billions of years before Adam and Eve come on the scene. Dinosaurs are even mentioned in the book of Job, just as a side-note. When God said multiply and replenish the earth, thats because it had been "plenished" before. In Genesis, you hear of God preparing the earth to be inhabitable for flesh. Dinosaurs eat flesh, so they had to go.
The only bunk I see here is that you have absolutely no idea what the Word of God really says. You are making assumptions based on hearing goofy christians who also know nothing of what they are talking about. I am a Christian, and so you can imagine how terrible I feel when the masses of unlearned church goers who are biblically illiterate say stupid things like that this earth is 6000 years old. I'm truly dismayed at that, and ask you to please realize that not all Christians are idiots. Thanks.

Answer 3

well I don't see why they couldn't , just because the movies show dinosaurs running all over the place doesn't necessarily mean that there were huge numbers. Or that humans were located near very many of them. Or they could have been right there with them, and people had dominion over them. It's hard to tell God didn't tell us everything in the bible. Maybe He just didn't think it was something that we need to worry about. There really are more important issues out there other than dinosaurs.

Answer 4

The truth is that you haven't given me any reason to not believe there is God. OK yeah there were dinosaurs I don't know what happened to them or when they existed. God does though. Really if you think about it, I have faith that God exists and created everything. You just have faith that he didn't. Whats the point. Your acting foolish by just saying one fact and thinking that it destroys God. It don't He can't be destroyed. You were not there when he created everything and neither was I so you don't know how he did it. All you do is make guesses at thing you find in the dirt. I think an excellent way to prove God is real your own body and how complex it is. For DNA to just happen is crazy. Its like taking apart an engine scattering it across the world and expecting it to build itself (tighten bolts and everything). and that's just DNA what is it going to do after that it has no cell body or anything to sustain it.

Answer 5

Yes, the theory of intelligent design would require that dinosaurs and humans walked the earth at the same time. And contrary to what you believe there is fossil evidence that they did. Fossil beds in Conneticut and Texas verify that humans and dinosaurs occupied the earth together. Human footprints cross dinosaur prints.

Also the fact that every culture on the planet retains "dragons" in their folklore would indicate that humans had seen these large lizards and passed down the stories.

By the way, I do not seem to hold the same anger over this issue that you do. why do you think this makes you so angry?

Answer 6

I read that there is some archeological evidence of dinosaurs whose existence overlapped chronologically with man's. I don't have a link to the information and I know that this not any sort of proof but most likely if someone were interested in finding it they would be able to. The point I'm making is that if man and dinosaurs existed side by side at any time in history then there would be evidence of it, and there is.

Answer 7

I do know that a scientific theory is, you don't have to be insulting.
Anyway, not all creationists are young earth creationists, believing that the earth is only 6,000 years old and was created in 6 days. Old earth creationists believe that the days in the bible represent millions or billions of years. And Creationist evolutionsts believe that God used evolution to create what He intended to create.
However, I am a young earth creationist and I think that humans and dinosours probably did co-exist and I simply disagree with the scientists' method of dating rocks. I don't think it's nearly as accurate as everybody takes it to be.

Answer 8

I believe it was just a really harsh footprint made to look more like a human footprint. Probably just some primate.. Edit: I'm not claiming they were around the same time or "walked together"

Answer 9

Actually scientists are still un certain about the time period human beings or in this case with dinos, neanderthal or early early mamals similar to humans they were our ancestes. I think it is completely possible that the ancetrial mammals and dinos existed at the same time, they have already proven mammals were alive near the end of the dino age.

I think Michael Cs link is a great link and makes sense, do check it out, good job Mike.

The problem is that science still has alot of research and studying to do, their are so many missing gaps of time periods with little to no information. There are just as many holes in the creationist theory as their is the god theory. Both are plausable, and maybe both are correct. I am not a strong beleiver, BUT say their is a god, who is to say that god did not create the dinos first and then mammals after and was happier with his second creation he eventually created humans. THAT would mix both theories together very tightly.

I amnot saying that is what happened, I dont know what happened if it was all natural as science says or if it was done by god or gods or aliens for all I know.

SO no it does not make their theory bunk, it just opens more questions they have to study and answer, it is ALWAYS good to keep them learning because they have been wrong before and had to correct themseelves about Dinos and I am sure about humans as well. Their simply are no written documents for them to go by making their research hard, but not where as hard as proving god created all this. THAT you either beleive or you dont. Science i do not htink can ever prove that. You have to beleive in your heart or not.

The million years is not correct because mammals DID live at the same time as Dinos and we are Mammals making them our ancestors, question is when did the first upright mammals appear in conjunction to Dinos, those would be our closest ancestors.

I hope this anwers your question, not trying to argue with you, but i think you are missing some valid points wether god created all this or not, science does have facts to work on and alot of facts to discover, even if they prove evolution correct, still does not mean that god did not have a hand in it, nor does it mean god did either. THAT will be even harder to prove.. its to each their owns to beleive or not to beleive. Freedom of faith or non faith is what americans in particular can be proud of.

AND JUDAH!!!! What were you born under a rock, ever been to a museum?? They did not make those dino fossils from no where. They were very real and thats as absurd as someone who beleives the holocause never happened. SO you can beleive in god, something you can not see, hear, taste or touch, its in your personal beleifs god exists though there is no physcial evidence ( To all you beleivers I am not slamming god or reigion here making a point to Judah) How can you not beleive in something that has facts and proof?? We know air exits, we cans see it, smell it taste it or touch it but it is real and we could no live without oxygen. so sure god may be real just because you cannot discover god with your five senses, that does not make Dinos a fabrication, thats is the most ridiculous thing I have heard since someone wrote the Holocaust did not exist. get your head out of the bibles for a bit and read some other books with facts and history in them as well.

Others here are correct, the earh is billions of years old, bible and science have proven that. Evolution is real, like it or not. Only quetion remains is god real or not and is god resposible for evolution or was it all natural?? I think that may never be answered, esp in our life times, we each have to beleive in our hearts what we think is true wether you beleive god did not exist or he does and created evlution. The guy that said a day could be millions of calender years to god may be very correct if god is real. 7 days to god could be 70 million years to us.

Why are you so angry over this anyways? Dinos are cool for kids to play with and the movies are great to watch and real fossils are interesting to look at. check some out, you may change your mind. Would it be so bad if humand and Dinos existed at the same time? What differance does it really make if they did or did not?

Answer 10

I think that's true when it comes to Intelligent Design which is more detailed than Creationism. The latter is simply that a god created the universe right? Some creationists believe that a god was in control of Evolution (some lazy god if you ask me). Does that help?
