In my opinion (which is mine alone, I expect nobody to share it), the dinosaurs were around long before Christianity. Therefore I can safely presume that they were created by the scientific wonders of Mother Nature.

Eventually, after they died out, mammals began to flourish, and over a period of 65million years (that's a long long time) gradually mammals gave rise to primates, primates into the various monkeys that are around, plus a few that have already become extinct, and also humans.

Humans sat around scratching their behinds as they developed languages and tools, and eventually came up with the Bible, which was an account of the way humans have always looked into the concept of a higher power ruling their lives.

There is only one ruling power of the planet (once again, I say this in my own view). That power is Mother Nature. Mother Nature rules all, but karma rules only the living.

God did, in the first few pages of the bible it states that he created the earth and animals, now it says in the bible in 7 days, but their was no watchs or dates when God done all this so it may have taken millions of years between the animals (most likely the dinosaurs) and the first human beings (adam and eve).

Allah, the world was around long before man. Micro evolution does exist and meteors and all kinds of things that go bang in the dark and do so by the will of Allah.

God did.

"The Bible refers to many the common animals we know today. The list includes lions, wolves, bears, sheep, cattle and dogs along with various kinds of birds, rodents, reptiles, and insects. What is interesting is that this extensive list includes three animals that we no longer recognize. These three are (in the original Hebrew language) tanniyn, b@hemowth (yes, it’s spelled correctly—at least as close as we can get in Roman characters), and livyathan.

Although we alter the spelling of behemoth and Leviathan slightly, we still use those same words in bibles today. However, tanniyn is always translated into another word when we write it in English. Tanniyn occurs 28 times in the Bible and is normally translated “dragon.” It is also translated “serpent,” “sea monster,” “dinosaur,” “great creature,” and “reptile.” Behemoth and Leviathan are relatively specific creatures, perhaps each was a single kind of animal. Tanniyn is a more general term, and it can be thought of as the original version of the word “dinosaur.” The word “dinosaur” was originally coined in 1841, more than three thousand years after the Bible first referred to “Tanniyn.”


Behemoth has the following attributes according to Job 40:15-24"
It “eats grass like an ox.”
It “moves his tail like a cedar.” (In Hebrew, this literally reads, “he lets hang his tail like a cedar.”)
Its “bones are like beams of bronze,
His ribs like bars of iron.”
“He is the first of the ways of God.”
“He lies under the lotus trees,
In a covert of reeds and marsh.”
Some bibles and study bibles will translate the word “behemoth” as “elephant” or “hippopotamus.” Others will put a note at the edge or bottom of the page, stating that behemoth was probably an elephant or a hippopotamus. Although an elephant or hippopotamus can eat grass (or lie in a covert of reeds and marsh), neither an elephant or a hippopotamus has a “tail like a cedar” (that is, a tail like a large, tapered tree trunk).

We would expect behemoth to be a large land animal whose bones are like beams of bronze and so forth, so whatever a behemoth is, it is large. A key phrase is “He is the first of the ways of God.” This phrase in the original Hebrew implied that behemoth was the biggest animal created. Although an elephant or a hippopotamus are big, they are less than one-tenth the size of a Brachiosaurus, the largest (complete) dinosaur ever discovered.[1] A Brachiosaurus could therefore easily be described as “the first of the ways of God.”

They evolved, via a few stages from single cell organisms. Not from some mysterious god entity like some would have you believe
