Are dinosaurs made up? Or maybe could they have existed but a way shorter time ago than the scientists say?

Question

Most people believe the earth has not been here more than 6 to 8000 years......If thats so,,what about the dinasaur theory?
Fallacy? or did they roam the earth, but a shorter while ago?

LMAO!! o, i c, Mr Stiggo, and when you were here, 4.5 BILLION years ago/, what did you and the dinasaurs DO together? bah humbug! dont call people STUPID, ! I didnt call you stupid, this is a QUESTION!! on thoughts....not stupid or dumb...just peoples opinions!

Lavengro: NObodys DNA can be traced back MILLIONS of years...because NOBODY existed millions of years ago!!

Answer 1

The dinosaurs did exist as did alot of other events outside our modern day interpretation of time. It was only in the middle ages that Pope Gregory adopted the Gregorian calander that we use today, my point is that time is something that changes in the Bible, as different cultures have used solar and lunar ways of measuring the days and seasons. Pre history is between the creation and the first written records, dino's existed in this time.

Answer 2

Oh wow...

Ok, I'll try to explain a few things.

"Are dinosaurs made up?"

-I shouldn't think so, there's quite a lot of physical evidence of their existence.

"Or maybe could they have existed but a way shorter time ago than the scientists say?"

-No. The evidence supports the age esitmates. In order for that to be true, nearly everything we know today would have to be completely wrong, all sciences would be incorrect.. and constantly and accurately wrong exactly the same way every time.


"Most people believe the earth has not been here more than 6 to 8000 years......"

-Honestly, you're mistaken. Most of the 6.500.000.000 people in the world are not christians, most of those that are christians do not believe that. So, you're talking about a very small minority of people who actually believe that.

"If thats so,,what about the dinasaur theory?
Fallacy?"

-Fact, supported by evidence and multiple different sciences.

"or did they roam the earth, but a shorter while ago?"

-I think I mentioned this earlier...no, they did not.


As always, if you need clarification, just message me.

Rev. Albert Einstein
Those "footprints" have been shown to be without merit . The ones thet were examined by real scientist could not be identified as humanoid or even as footprints . Then there are the other examples that were conviently destroyed or lost before real scientist could examine them . This is just another atempt at believers in the Young Earth Theory trying to create evidence to support their religious beliefs .

princecu ... All religions ( history in ancient time included religion because they THOUGHT it was scientific belief ) talk about great floods as far as the eye could see ( about a diameter of 10 miles ) because all large rivers and lakes overflow and flood from time to time . Now we are aware the floods can be limited to a diameter of 10 miles ( or 20 or 50 miles ) .
If you were to have covered all the earth with the available rain in the skys the depth would have only been 1 inch !

Answer 4

Most people believe the earth has not been here more than 6 to 8000 years? Most stupid people, maybe. Most people who actually know anything about it know the earth is more than 4.5 billion years old. That's just slightly more than 8000 years, in case you were wondering.

I was just pointing out that for anyone to believe that the Earth is no more than 8000 years ago is pretty stupid, so anyone who believes that would also have to be stupid. It makes sense. And since when does someone have to have experienced something to know it was true? Isn't actual scientific evidence enough? Dinosaurs are not a theory, and the fact that they lived millions of years ago, long before man existed, is, just that, a fact.

Answer 5

Most people actually use scientific evidence to determine the age of the Earth, and agree that it is about 4.6 billion years old.

There are a very small number of individuals that use some sort of strange Biblical mumbo-jumbery and come up with a date of 6000 years based solely on begats and the unsupported geneaologies listed in the Bible.

There is no evidence to suggest that dinosaurs were 'made up'.

There is considerable fossil and geological evidence to suggest that there were hundreds of different species of dinosaur that were found on every continent on Earth between about 250 million years ago and 65 million years ago.

Not all of the species existed at the same time, and any 'theory' that compresses their existence to a shorter time frame would have to account for the fact that certain groups only appear in certain geological formations indicating a progression of diversity over time.

So if the dinosaurs existed for say, only 1500 years instead of 150 million, it would have to explain why it appears that Coelurosaurs and prosauropods appeared for a few decades at the start of the 1500 years, birds appear only about 750 years in, and many of the groups like raptors, a variety of hadrosaurs, ceratopsians and T. rex only appeared in the last few decades. How did they have multiple generations and growth rings indicating lifespans of 50+ years if they only existed for 20 years?

Answer 6

You can't blame people for being shocked that anyone actually beleives the earth is 6 to 8000 years old. Do yourself a big favor and google up some info. on carbon 14 dating. Do you believe in DNA? Your own DNA can be traced back millions of years. Not trying to denigrate your naivete or get down on your religiosity. Nothing like that. It's just that you seem reasonably intelli------"This is a put on, yeah?"

Answer 7

New discoveries are always being made. It's possible that the timing might be a little off but dinosaurs most definitely did exist, that is a fact, not an opinion or conspiracy theory. Most likely, the Earth is much older than Scientists think...but not younger.

Answer 8

I am not a expert, but. what things (many) reveal the flood and the earths expansion to rescind the waters. a decompression happened as a result. They say the ark was actually designed in a way to act as a decompression chamber also.
Dinosaurs would not as species been able to sustain there life in the decompressed state . So they were abandoned.
Everyone knows about Gods 7 day creation but fail to see His recreations. YES evolutionists recreation. At the garden of Eden there was no death or carnivores , God redesigned them at the Expulsion from Eden. There were no viruses , many species that involve sick and dead animals had to be brought into the picture. Like the vulture. Maggots and flies .
Satan had rule of earth also until Jesus he may as ruler had right to design other species no one know s for sure. Remember that Cain was sent to a region of other people ,so they could of been the angelic breeds destroyed in the flood.
The bible is a book From God to His creation Man. It is not a complete diary of everything he did.

Answer 9

Shorter time.
I think the scientists have messed up with their carbon dating...I recall hearing about a living palm tree being dated as thousands of years old, for instance.
They have discovered petrified trees that run up through several layers of rock, which indicates the global flood of Noah's time.
The flood buried the dinosaurs, because when you get massive amounts of water as in a flood, the earth churns over burying everything.

Answer 10

Most people believe in evolution.
But it has never been necessary to saving faith to believe in 'Creationism' in order to be saved. Most people who are being saved believe in evolution and that's all right. It's Jesus who saves and not Jesus plus creationism.
Creationism has become an embarrassment and a stumbling block to salvation, it's time to lay it aside. Just like Circumcision in the first century, Creationism is an outmoded religious interpretation not part of the Gospel that is better left in the past where it belongs.
