Creation Museum: How did T-Rex travel that far to get onto the Ark, if he was this slow and clumsy?

Question

http://news.yahoo.com/s/livescience/20070606/sc_livescience/terribletrexwasaslowpoke

I wonder how T-Rex could have made the long trip and finally clambor onto an ark, if he (and she) was (were) this clumsy and slow...

But wait...in asking this question, another question occurred to me: who went all over the planet, found these huge beasts, and then HERDED these Dinosaurs onto the Ark anyway? Ever think of that? Trying to herd Dinosaurs?? WHOA!!! RIDICULOUS!!!

And, BETTER YET, checking their genitals closely enough to make sure they were a mated pair?? YIKES!! The story just gets MORE and MORE SILLY!!!! Imagine -- lifting the tails of T-Rex's and Brontosauruses to check for the right equipment!!

"Whoops -- I know T-Rex testes when I see them. Sorry, already have a guy...I need to find me a T-Rex female now. Whoa, that one looks kinda cute! Hey Karl, lift that one's tail and check!"

How much more silly can bible fables get??

YIKES and CRIMINY!!!!

oh, i love these answers. "No limits on what god can do" -- so god brought the animals to noah, etc. Well, why didn't he just build the darned ark, too?? and you forget -- the ark would have needed to be as big as the titanic to carry everyone, and additionally, two more titanic-sized arks would have been necessary to keep and provide fresh food and water for all the animals and people for all that time. OOOPS. Details details, right? Just wave it all away with "god did it, but he wasn't into building boats..." Yikes! THINK people, THINK!!! Did god give you a brain just to have it ROT in your noggins???

he had 120 years to build the ark? wow, a lot of vacation time built into that equation! LMAO!! so, god brought the animals to him in a wave of his godly handd, but had no time to build a boat, instead wanted noah to spend 120 years doing it. GREAT. that makes sense. nothing like a story that makes sense! LMFAO!!! thanks people, you've kept me laughing hysterically today!!!

Ah Stone-Rolled: Creation Museum gives you an "F" -- they say that Bible Bible Bible tells them that dinosaurs were on the ark, and Bible Bible Bible proves that, and god says so, and that settles it!! Sorry, but you do NOT win free tickets to Creation Museum in KY. (No, that's NOT K-Y Jelly...)

Answer 1

God brought all the animals to Adam to see what he would name them (read Genesis 2:19).

"God formed every beast ... fowl ..and brought them unto Adam" Genesis 2:19

It's very likely that God brought the animals to Noah, to have them put on the ark.

This would hardly be a surprise, repeatedly we see God's sovereignty over the animals. Read Exodus 8:6, Numbers 22:30, Jonah 1:17, 1 Kings 17:4-6, John 21:11.

EDITED: Don't change the topic, because you don't like the answer. If you want to discuss if the ark was big enough for all the animals, then open another question - we'lI be glad to answer it.

Answer 2

I'm just wondering how embarrassed you're going to be when you realize you should have read more of the article, particularly where it says that the "slowpoke" "tyrannosaurs could run no faster than 25 mph", which would be slightly less than a human (27.89), as fast an elephant, and faster than a black mamba, squirrel, domestic pig, chicken, and house mouse. They weren't saying the T. Rex was slow compared to other animals, but compared to "the 45 mph seen in some movies".

Beyond that, there's no biblical reason why the T. Rex couldn't have gone extinct before the flood or, if they did survive until then, they couldn't have been represented by eggs or immature specimens.

Yikes and criminy indeed.

Answer 3

God instructed Noah to build an ark which took 120 years to build. Maybe at the same time God instructed the animals to head to the ark, meaning they had 120 years to get to the ark. No matter how clumsy or slow you are or a t-rex was it could of go there in 120 yrs.

Answer 4

It is a little known fact that Noah had a very extended staff stick to check for such a thing. Besides, back then ,dinosaurs where the smartest animals(reptiles,whatever) in the world. So Noah and his family just had to ask them to step on-board and claim their sexuality. Well this infuriated all the other animals,so they plotted to kick the mother-effing dinosaurs off the ark. Hence the extinction of the beast!
hee-hee

Answer 5

Here we go again, putting limits on God's ability.

It may be that God allowed Noah some latitude in regard to the animals that were taken onboard. For example, perhaps it was not necessary for Noah to take adult animals; rather, immature animals may have been stowed. This would save space, and prevent potential reproductive problems.

It is possible that God may have placed some, or all, of the animals into hibernation, thus making them easier to care for.

The point is that the Flood was initiated and controlled by God from beginning to end. It involved both God’s providential and miraculous intervention. Neither should be diminished in importance in the historical account of Genesis 6-8.

Answer 6

The animals that went on the ark didnt have to be adults, they could have been eggs
The Bible says the animals came to Noah, no one caught all of them, maybe the dinosaurs laid their eggs by the ark? who knows

Answer 7

God must have given him a break on that part and beamed the cage down. Noah procrastinated too much, so he didn't have enough time to make the cage. Either that or that's how dinosaurs died. They all drowned because Noah couldn't figure out how to build a dinosaur cage. =]

Answer 8

GOD brought the animals to the ark. He chose the two of each to get on. Oh, by the way, God created them, so He didn't have to "look under their tails" to see if they were male or female. He already knew! He's GOD! Who says they were scattered all over, and had to walk a long way? Do you know where dinosaurs originated? My guess is the Garden of Eden, where all the other animals came from, then roamed the earth from there. The Bible says two of a "kind." That means two birds, two cats, two dogs, two dinosaurs,etc.NOT 2 Robins, 2 Sparrows, 2 Siamese cats, 2 Himalayan cats, 2 Rottweilers, 2 Dobermans, 2 T-Rex, 2 Brontosaurus. There is a whole study which explains all of this. And who says they were full grown dinosaurs that got on the ark? They were probably not grown up yet. They could have even been eggs. Did you ever think of that? Before the flood, dinosaurs roamed the earth. It doesn't say they were in any specific part of the earth. The flood killed everything that roamed the earth, EXCEPT the animals on the ark with Noah and his family. These were the only TWO DINOSAURS LEFT after the FLOOD.They would have had to start all over again (just like everything else) and multiply on the earth (like people). But, MAYBE God decided he didn't want the dinosaurs anymore. Maybe he thought they may take over because there weren't many people at that time. MAYBE, since there weren't many of them, the people killed them off. MAYBE there wasn't enough vegetation for them to eat, and they died off, and MAYBE God planned it that way. Only God knows the TRUE answer. If you don't believe that dinosaurs walked the earth with people, then get a Bible, and read:Job 40:15-24 and while you're reading in the book of Job, read Job 41:1-34. (Job 41:1-34 describes a DRAGON!). What else would breathe fire out of his mouth and nostrils? Wow! were there really dragons? I believe there were. So, there's proof in the Bible of these things. Read Job 40:19. It says "He is the first of the ways of God; ONLY HE WHO MADE HIM can bring near his sword. (New King James Version).
Jesus said in the end times there will be SCOFFERS, lovers of themselves instead of lovers of God. I guess that makes Him RIGHT. Hmmmmmmm. The FLOOD, or the DELUGE, which the Bible refers to is the one that covered the earth. Not A flood, but, THE FLOOD. Noah's FLOOD. If you read in Genesis about the FLOOD and Noah. Read specifically Genesis 6:20. It doesn't say Noah went out to get the animals. It says "two of every "kind" WILL COME TO YOU." Noah and his family were already in the Ark. When everything got in, GOD closed the door. The Bible is the TRUTH. It is recorded HISTORY. Not a stupid fairytale, as you called it. But, you would believe that EVERYTHING on this earth just appeared out of nowhere, and "evolved" from each other. That, my friend is the "fairytale" (also known as a LIE) made up by guess who----Satan! Satan doesn't want you to believe in God, then you might worship Him. Satan wants to be worshipped. That's why he was thrown out of heaven in the 1st place.(by the way, Satan doesn't even match the power of one of God's angels) He used to be an angel himself. Now, he roams the earth (read again, Job 2:1-2), trying to deceive those who will listen.
The Bible says "The wisdom of this world is foolishness to God." Hasn't science been wrong before? Even Darwin said his own THEORY of evolution couldn't be true, and yet, people still want so bad to believe it, that they make everything up, and even "fill in the blanks" to make it seem real. Then, they teach it to our children in school as the truth, when, they, themselves admit it isn't. Yet, they won't allow creationism to enter the schools. Why? Because Satan rules here, and he doesn't want it in the schools. You people are always saying that Christians are pushing themselves on others, and trying "shove their beliefs down everyone's throats." Why, might I ask, are you, who doesn't believe in God's Word, entering into the religion and spirituality category on this website, if your intention isn't to "shove your views down our throats?"(not that I believe Christianity is a religion. It is actually about a personal relationship with God.) No one said you had to come here. You took it upon yourself to do so. If you are swimming with the FISH, be prepared to drink the same WATER! If I were you, I would be more prepared when entering into a territory you know nothing about. Be prepared to hear the TRUTH!There is a real God who loves you, and CREATED you. He made you higher than all the other creatures on this earth. He made you in His own image. You were not formed from other creatures (monkeys?) Then, my friend, why are there still monkeys on the earth. Shouldn't they have "evolved?"My life has purpose and meaning. God created me for a reason. Maybe it was to tell you about Him. Jesus died for you on the cross, and for me. We are ALL sinners, falling short of God's goodness, by BY HIS GRACE, we are saved through the blood of Jesus. Not by anything we do, but by what he did on that cross. He made it possible to have eternal live with Him, if we repent (turn away) from our sins, and turn to Jesus, and accept Him as our Savior. I pray that you will accept Him. It is your call. You may still think that you are right. But, what if you're wrong, and I'm right? What then? God Bless.

Answer 9

How silly is it you believe we came from monkeys. Better yet, if evolution were real we'd see evolution in the making today such as half-pig-half-cow or 1/3rd-snake-2/3rds-cat; and how could they finish the evolution if they die -- I guess they'd have to start all over again.
Also, you believe everything came from nothing. BIG BANG~! -- I thought "big bangs" caused destruction rather than construction.

Answer 10

They handle those very reasonable questions by saying that Satan placed the dinosaur bones in order to distract us from the truth of the Bible. An answer for every question!
