It's the battle between science and faith. The bible says that God created man and animals. The Bible does not specify exactly ALL the animals created except for a few that are named such as lions, lambs,etc. And..if it doesn't specify which all animals were created, it def does not give description of all. It is a possiblity that dinosaurs existed BUT I believe science has the order of existences wrong. I believe in evolution. Evolution is making adaptations to accomodate your environment. However, I do not believe that humans evolved from apes. It does not coincide with the Bible and that is my book of reference...Not a book written by a scientist that doesn't even believe in God.

Animals and plants were created first. Then humans.
It was led to believe that early humans (such as adam and eve) coexisted with the dinosaurs. The bible speaks of Giants and beasts. They were more than likely destroyed by the flood. Resulting in fossils. As for darwinism, I don't care what they can teach a monkey, I was not formed from a gorilla or an ape. I was created from God. I believe God created and things "changed". I am sure there are new species and plants that have been cross-bread just waiting to be discovered. Its all natural. I just can't make myself believe that gorillas and apes or some form of monkey kept mating until one day they produced a human. That is bizarre.

are the many parts of this question supposed to work together? First: The bible states very clearly Adam and Eve were the last part of Creation. Not the first, not the middle but the last. How much live came before them? No one but God himself can know that. Darwinism as far as species changing from one to another, is non-seance. Yes changes do occurs within a species, as in, short, tall, fat, skinny, smart dumb, etc. but you do not see a fly evolving into a bird. You will not find a ape evolve into a man. Coco, knows what she is taught. Just as a dog, catches a Frisbee. A horse knows how to jump and leap in horse shoes, a elephant can be taught to stand on a ball, and we all know that whales can do tricks at Sea World, does that mean that they are about to become human? I think not.

Not sure what an Ape being taught sign language has to do with Darwinian evolution but to answer the question. I believe in intelligent design as well as evolution. I do feel that they can coexist Throughout the Bible there is hinting to giant beasts and mosnters which probaply come from early encoutners with fossils and no way to explain them. And Genesis does not state that humans were created first which leaves plenty of room for evolution unless you beleive in a a strict 7 day theory.

Dinosaurs and humans lived together years ago. There is proof of this.
Darwin knows nothing. Darwin's theory is a dead dog.
Coco is smarter than I am when it comes to sign language, but that doesn't make that gorilla human.
That ever changing specie must have new information.
God told us to produce after our own kind. Start mixing animals and humans and you will have an environment that you cannot live in. Violence will be so great that man will self destruct, but before that happens the Lord will return and destroy the evil the second time with fire.

It doesn't say that Adam and Eve were created before animals and plants and everything else. If they would have, then after being out of Eden, they would be on an empty earth with nothing to eat (plants or animals)
On the other hand, evolution doesn't say that we came from apes, it only sais that we have a common ancestor, it's a difference

First, scientists have found fossilized footprints of human-like beings in the same rocks as dinosaur footprints, so it's very possible that humans and dinosaurs did exist at the same time.
Second, Darwin didn't say that humans came from apes. He said that living things change due to breeding and environmental reasons.
Third, scientists have found a definite change in the D.N.A. between apes, humans, and those older beings referred to as "Cave Men". Ancient people didn't know what D.N.A. was, much less how to manipulate it. Someone other than indigenous beings had to do that. That sounds like a "Creation" event to me, how about you?
If you read these things right, science confirms your faith, it doesn't destroy it.

Dinosaurs of course are real and so are humans. Both were created by God as He told us in the Bible. The conflict only comes when you assume evolution to be true and the age of earth to be determined by modern geologic interpretations based on the current rate of sedimentation and lithification. God never said that He created animals to be unintelligent so how could the existence of intelligent animals be a conflict? After all, crows have been demonstrated to be far better tool makers and users than primates. Does that disprove evolution?
Hope that helps.

The Bible doesn't say that God created humans first. It says that he created the animals first. And when it talks about him creating them on a certain day, who's to say how long that actually meant since God exists outside of time. Plus, there wasn't even a Sun until the fourth day, so how'd they know how long a day actually was until the fourth day?
