I think one of the things I'm most tired of seeing here, is the question of "How do Creationists explain Dinosaurs" followed by a parade of Atheists claiming we don't. I am a Creationist and I believe dinosaurs existed, I dont know a single Creationist who denies it. When fossils were first uncovered relating to dinosaurs, yes, Christians doubted them but it's been decades since that has been the case. It's almost like these particular atheists (as it isnt all of them) think they will convince Creationists to NOT believe in Dinosaurs.
Could everyone PLEASE stop saying Christians do not believe dinosaurs exist?

Well, first off - There are cases of dinosaurs in the bible. There were two by name Leviathon and Behemoth. I have never been told as a Christian that dinosaurs didnt exist. As far as I know, they were all destroyed in the flood, and the pairs of dinosaurs that were saved on the ark could not handle the type of weather after the flood that resulted because of there being so little land and so much water, so they died.

I've met Christians who believe one of two things about Dinosaurs:
1. That Dinosaur fossils were put on Earth to deceive humans.
2. That Dinosaurs were here, but existed about 6000 years ago. Which goes against scientific evidence. (My health teacher in High School actually thought Dinosaurs and man lived together on the Earth... True story)
Either way, these two beliefs are wrong. Some Christians say that they believe in Dinosaurs AND that they existed Millions of years ago, but that contradicts the Bible.

I know that I do and looked at the hard evidence. This is not the Middle Ages. What they tend to leave out is the fact that Science has its roots in the Biblical Evidence. Strange they never bother to take on the challenge to Prove evolution as fact for a $250,000.00 Reward on Ray Comfort's website either.

I knew that most creationists believe that dinosaurs existed. I don't see how anyone could claim that they don't.
Of course the fun part is listening to the crazy reasoning behind the creationist theories.
Isn't it kinda odd that we have never found human footprints next to dinosaur ones?? I wonder why??

Some of them really don't.
Just like they see the scientific evidence of animals evolving and still deny it.
I'm sorry, just like not all atheists say that, not all "creationists" believe in dinosaurs.

They're just making fun out of an old Christian claim. Nobody takes it seriously. The Bible does not address dinosaurs no matter what people believe about leviathan and behemoth.

Dinosaurs did in fact exist, and there is concrete proof to validate this claim. So why the solicitation for agreement? Do you feel deficient in a majority way?

Your list of creationist friends must be very short. I know many creationists who do NOT believe in dinosaurs, and in fact believe the world is less than 5,000 years old!
