Why do people who believe in evolution also believe that dinosaurs still exist?

Question

This alone proves that evolution is false. A theory which tolerates this kind of nonsense cannot possibly be true. Only a hare-brained retard who thinks a small number of dinosaurs can still exist without inbreeding (and subsequently going extinct) would side with such a false theory. I'm inclined to think evolution has no logical basis to begin with!

Answer 1

Uhh... No one who knows anything at all about evolution, or has even passed 8th grade biology thinks that dinosaurs exist.


Sorry, Charlie, but unless this question is a joke, you are woefully in error.

MAJOR EDIT: I read the article that you cited for your reference. It says that there are CREATIONISTS (not those who accept evolution) who are asserting that dinosaurs may still exist.

"Why do people who believe in the process of reproduction also believe Elvis is alive? This alone proves reproduction is false. A theory which tolerates this kind of nonsense cannot possibly be true. Only a hare-brained retard who thinks that an obese aging rockstar could still survive unnoticed for over 50 years after his death would side with such a false theory."

You see what I'm getting at? The wishful thinking of a few individuals is not the deciding proof or disproof of any theory.

Answer 3

First off, you misread your own article.
OOPS!!
Secondly, while I am neither an "evolutionist" or a "creationist", I am a Christian...
I know what I know.
I grew up on a dairy farm along the shore of Lake Erie (it's condos now), and I used to swim in that lake from the time I was very little. I've been out so far, I lost sight of land a few times, but don't tell my Dad, he'd have a heart attack. There is definitely SOMETHING in that lake...or should I say, those lakes, since the Great Lakes are all connected underground...something that is definitely NOT a fish. If you swim much, you know that when there is something HUGE in the water with you, you feel it...but if that were all, I'd dismiss it. However, I have also SEEN it. Don't worry, this was around fifty years ago, and even then, the thing was harmless...just curious, I think.

Believe it or not, it doesn't matter to me one way or the other.

Here's a tip next time you want to learn about something don't ask the people that don’t know anything about it. Except that there preacher and parents told them it was a lie. Even though mountains of scientific evidence points to evolution. How can you not take almost all of the scientific community serious when your best argument is that god did it? Your people either don’t believe in fossil evidence or believe us and dinosaurs lived together. That is alot more laughable then the fact reptiles and in part us are descendants of dinosaurs.

Answer 5

Evolutionist teach that there are species today, such as the crocodile, that have remained unchanged since the day of the dinosaurs. They claim that they are "living dinosaurs" that managed to escape the changes that caused extinction to most other "dinosaur" species. So evolutionist do claim that there are still "dinosaurs" alive today.

Answer 6

I have never heard anyone claim that dinosaurs still exist. As for the inbreeding part, that is not possible. There are still amphibians and reptiles that are born without a sexual organ. That way they can still reproduce. It is said that reptiles and amphibians have evolved from dinosaurs. I think you need to read your science and history books.

Answer 7

But now you're ruling out a possibility. If you haven't travelled to all corners of the planet then you can't honestly rule out such an occurrence, right?
As for whether they'd inbreed and become extinct that way, well that would depend on the population numbers to begin with. I'll admit the probability is minute, but not completely out of the question.

Answer 8

Your basic premise is incorrect. Evolution is obvious, yet I'm unaware of any dinosours alive today. There are some species who have not evolved in all this time since it was not required for their survival. Is that what you're talking about? It's far less embarrassing for people who agree with your point of view if you refrain from name calling while spewing nonsense. Of course, with your head stuck up there you probably don't notice anything but the smell.

Answer 9

Aw, that's kinda cute. And AiG as a reference! Classic.

But seriously, if you're older than 12, you've got a lot to be angry about - people have been seriously lying to you. You seem very confused. Try asking a more coherent question in the biology section, or taking a class, or opening a biology book.

Answer 10

Umm, we don't believe dinosaurs still exist. You posted an article link, but the article does not say that people who believe in evolution believe dinosaurs still exist. How did you get that?

Answer 11

You didn't call us "evolutionists," but I'm going to have one anyway.
*gulp*
Look, no one seriously believes there are still dinosaurs. They went extinct 65 million years ago. What there are, however, are descendants of dinosaurs who haven't changed much because they were able to adapt. Put down the bible and pick up a biology textbook.
