if god is real why did he make dinosaurs before humans?

Answer 1

Humans are the fulfillment of God's creation. Everything was created first for us. I guess God could have made man first and let him float around until He made stuff for him. But God chose to do it the other way around.

Answer 2

Although the Bible does not go into detail about the creation of dinosaurs, and it is not obliged to, it is likely they were created to fertilise the earth in preperation for man's arrival.

----------------

According to the Genesis account, animals were created during the fifth and sixth creative periods or ‘days.’ If the Hebrew expression translated “great sea monsters” [Hebrew, tan·ni·nim′] includes dinosaurs, which often inhabited swampy, watery areas, this would mean that dinosaurs were created on the fifth “day.” (Gen. 1:21) We do not know whether they continued to exist until man was created (toward the close of the sixth “day”). At the very latest it seems likely that they must have disappeared off the earth at the time of the flood of Noah’s day. Dinosaurs were reptiles, and some kinds of dinosaurs bear strong resemblance structurally and otherwise to lizards (sauros is, in fact, the Greek word for “lizard”; saura in Leviticus 11:29, LXX). Not all types of dinosaurs were of such gigantic size. Hence, even if they had survived till the Flood, this would not have required taking pairs of the mammoth varieties into the ark. Other smaller members of the particular family or “kind” to which these belonged would have sufficed to fulfill the divine command.—Gen. 6:19, 20; 7:14.

Some of the older translations of the Bible at times use the word “dragons” to translate the Hebrew tan·ni·nim′ (“sea monsters,” NW). (Ps. 74:13; 148:7; Isa. 27:1, Authorized Version) The term “dragon” (Greek, dra′kon) is found in the Christian Greek Scriptures. It has been suggested as possible that, rather than having a purely mythical source, this expression may originally have been applied to enormous creatures such as the dinosaurs, taking on mythical tones only after these mammoth creatures had long disappeared. Interestingly, many of the mythical depictions of the “dragon” strongly resemble certain types within the family of huge reptilian creatures that includes the dinosaur.

ebenjosiah - At Genesis 2:7, after God creates Adam from the dust and breathes life into him "the man came to be a living soul". To put this into a scientific equation:

The body + the breath of life = the soul. The person is the soul.

Ezekiel 18:4 shows that the soul is not immortal when it says: "The soul that is sinning—it itself will die."

Answer 3

Firstly,God is real.Secondly what makes you think he made dinosaurs before humans?God made man(humans) higher and superior over animals including dinosaurs.

Answer 4

As he saw fit! perhaps to show us there was another world before us & will be another one when we pass away!. God didn't allow us to live with the dinosaurs as it would have been hell on earth for us we could not survive against dinosaurs. I believe they're just another sign of God's micracals & another spieces of his creation.

Answer 5

He made dinosaurs and man on day 6.

I assume you think dinosaurs died out millions of years before man came along.
Well you are perhaps unaware of the large amount of evidence indicating that they lived recently alongside man.

There are many written accounts and depictions of dinosaurs.
http://www.genesispark.org/genpark/ancient/ancient.htm
Remember that the word dinosaur was invented in 1841. Before that people used names like dragon.
People from all over the world have accounts of dinosaurs: the Chinese who have incorporated it into their lunar calendar, The Welsh who have the dragon in their flag; The account of the Saxon Beowolf; The native american thunderbird; and other stories from many other nations. The Romans even made mosaics of them.

Furthermore, dinosaur fossils have even been found containing blood cells - hardly 65 million years old.

But check the evidence for yourself - don't by brainwashed by dogmatic evolutionists who don't want us to think for ourselves :)

Answer 6

Well I believe that he was making a dinosaur's naughty bits and dropped the end of one. The sun shone on it and my manager grew out of it. He really is the biggest pr*ck you could ever hope to meet.

Answer 7

God is real but He did not create humans let alone dinosaurs.
Human beings are not really human but souls which are not created. Anything created has a lifespan but as souls we are imperishable the same as God.
Anything created dies but souls are imperishable. It is the human body that dies when the soul decides to leave the body.It then becomes a corpse.It is the soul that makes us a living being.

Answer 8

My belief is Raelian and we believe that scientists from another world came to our world to create life on Earth. When the scientists first started they started with small simple creations and learned each time from each new species they created. This led to them creating the dinosaurs. Once they had mastered DNA and they could create almost anything they wanted to, they decided to make man in their image.

So this is why Yahweh and his team made dinosaurs before humans.

Answer 10
