So Everyone knows that dinosaurs exist. Only idiots deny that. And we all learn in preschool that cavemen & dinosaurs never really fought, because they did not exist at the same time. And in the bible it says your god created all animals in 6 days. Yet obviously humans & dinosuars never coexisted, & don't tell me all the dinosaurs died on the 5th day. I guess I proved you guys wrong, huh.

WOW. I just through out a random obvious fact and I got bashed by Atheists & Christians. Testing the waters, & it looks like this place is tense. Well here are some answers:
Ahteists:
No I am a full fledged Jedi. Duh you can't disprove such a massive religion like that, but you all know there are hundreds of such examples, along with far more powerful ones that smash the bible on their own. Lay off, just think about it & the bibles falsehood is painfully obvious.
Christians: Don't give me that BS.We were not created, we evolved. Radio Carbon dating is based on science, which is based on math. Try proving to me that in a linear system 2+2=7. Yeah, I'm waiting...

Jedi are Buddhists. I could pwn all of you. enough of that.Jedi don't need to believe brainwashing trash anyways.

The old creationism vs. evolution (I choose not to use "theory") discussion is still going strong *s*...
Most Christians accept evolution as scientific fact, it is not at odds with the bible, in fact you have several scientists who are believers! Some more fundamental Christians have chosen to disbelieve it based on various theories.
Often it comes down to if you choose to interpret the bible literally or not.
What matters is the fundamental belief in God and Jesus.
You are probably not going to sway either camp either way, do your homework, do some soul searching and come to your own conclusion and let the rest keep theirs if it makes them happy.
PS
I am voicing my personal opinion and don't pretend to speak for all Christians.
God Bless

There is no absolute proof that man and dinosaurs did not exist at the same time. That is another theory created by scientists.
Dinosaurs and man co-existed. God created ALL living things in 6 days, which if you study the Bible you will discover that they WERE 24 hour days. Most people who study the Bible intensely believe that the world was a much different place following the flood and that is what may have caused the extinction of the large animals.
BTW. the word Dinosaur is NOT in the Bible because the word was not invented until the 1800's. There are scriptures, thought, that mention Behemoths and Sea Serpents in the Bible, which may refer to the large animals we know as dinosaurs.

Yes, I believe that dinosaurs existed (it does mention that in Job), so I guess that means I am not an idiot where that is concerned and yes, I believe that MY god created all the animals in 6 days, but since I have never considered Adam as a caveman, I guess you are half right there too, when you stated that cavemen and dinosaurs never existed at the same time, but you are wrong when you stated that humans and dinosaurs never co-existed because Adam and Eve were very much human and did coexist with the dinosaurs. So, my friend, you didn't prove anything wrong.

Where did you hear that? I never learned that? And where do you find the evidence that dinosaurs and men never co-existed. We see bones of men, and of dinosaurs. Neither telling the age. And science can't date anything before 5,500 years ago without guessing. And there are ancient texts that speak of large creatures. Where is the proof they never coexisted. There was found a footprint with the first lifeform smashed underneath it. That couldn't be possible but it is.

There are several places around the world were there are human and dinosaur footprints in the same rock.
The first names dinosaur was an Iguana-don, named so because it looked like a big Iguana. Today's Iguanas are larger than baby Iguana dons. The Bible says that things lived a lot longer before the flood and reptiles never stop growing as long as they are alive.
There are many examples of man made artifacts in coal seams and in other rock layers (some of them are suppose to be older than the dinosaurs!).

they also claimed Allah SWT rested on the 7th day. Ummmm, Al-Azim doesn't need to rest. HE's the almighty! HE needs no rest. that's complete disrespect and a degrading statement to make about GOD. The rude concept people spread about GOD is absolutely ridiculous. Allah proved this to the Jews by having Pr. Musa/Moses hold 2 glass bottles in his hand and HE ordered Pr. Musa to stay up ALL night but eventually he fell asleep and the bottles shattered when he let go of them. The next day, Allah SWT commanded Pr. Musa to tell the idiots that if Allah/GOD needed to rest then the earth and the entire universe would fall as these bottles have fallen and shattered. AH DAHHHHHHHHHH! point proven. All these lies are proven WRONG..HELLO! and it's not 7 days as we know it. It's a time frame that is only known by Allah SWT not a time that can be defined by man. it's not 24 hours for each day either. time in the heavens are not the same as they are here.

There is a line in the Bible that says "A day is like a Thousand years, and a thousand years is like a Day." So the 6 days described in the Bible is not necessarily six 24 hour days. Those 6 "days" could have taken millions of conventional years. Therefore, yes dinosaurs existed, and no, you didn't prove Christianity wrong.

No friend you did not prove me wrong you just prove your stupity, Those cave men did exist during the dinosuars time, These cave men & women did not have a soul & neither were they a son or daughter of God, They were the highest creature in the animal kingdom, Therefore they did co-exist, Because these cave men/women were not a human. Humans did not exist until Adam & Eve.

There are numerous archeological discoveries that included the remains of humans and prehistoric beasts. God refers to these beasts in the book of Job.
You have confused a theory of evolution with factual basis, yet there is no scientific discovery that has been shown to disprove the historicity of the bible or its doctrinal content.
I highly recommend you carefully study the scientific and theological literature on both sides of the issues in order to form a reasoned and cogent opinion.
