About all creatures great and small. How come dinosaurs were never mentioned in the bible??
That's a bit unfair isn't it?
God is nasty I think.

It's a bit unfair of Him to ignore them right enough.
You know, I'm not so sure this God bloke actually existed.

It's not "God" that is nasty.
It's the Christian and Catholic Religion.
First of all religion was made to control the society.
When the Roman empire fell, the only way to control the people was to get rid of all those gods they had copied from the Greeks and make something new.
So then they came up with catholicism and all that ****.
You may ask yourself "Why doesn't the bible talk about if animals go to heaven or hell?"
They simply don't give a **** and specially 2000 yrs ago.
There are so many **** that these churches have done. Like raping little boys. And taking a really good book off the shelves calle the Master Key.
If you don't know the master key book was a really good book and it came back to the stores in the 80's. It talks about how you can get anything you want, and that the power"God" is not out there in teh sky wearing a funky white robe. "The Power" is is the universe and specially within you.
Another fact about this book is that Bill Gates read it and look at him now, he's not a stuck up Catholic is he? I don't think so...
Read the Master Key, and watch What The Bleep Do We Know, and become more self conscious.
And please don't support animal cruelty, they're just one of us in our Earth.
..And that's how the cookie crumbles my friends.

Someone will mention the huge beast in the book of Job, which is not specifically described as a reptile, and therefore cannot be construed definitely as a dinosaur.
The word dinosaur is a couple of hundred years old. Some of the older books of the bible are at best about 2500 years old.
The fact is dinosaurs and man never existed at the same time, they were extinct well over 60 million years before the first early humans had evolved.

That word dinosaur, where did that world come from, were their some big animals on this earth at one time yes, the King James Version translated in 1611 used the word Leviathan, its used 5 times in the Bible. It was obviously a large animal. That word dinosaur is just a word, thats all. Its amazing to me how nonbelievers have tried to use that word to put down Christians, the fact of the matter is the Bible speaks of a large animal, only the translation of the word is different. Did you know that the Bible is the best selling book of all time. There is a reason for that. It is special, The Bible is book that just draws you to it. Just like a steeple on a Church or a Cross. When you see one you think of Jesus. Its written within our hearts and minds, its in our instincts to know our Saviour, giving our life to Him means taking that next step, admiting that we need him and confessing that we are a sinner takes courage, not many have it, less and less people are going to church today, this country was founded on Christianity, but it is slowly declinning. Since the early 1900's the church has been in serious decline. And look at the world today. Violence is everywhere, and the Bibles says that Jesus will return when it was like the days of Noah, before the great flood came. I encourage you to read the in the Bible the Gospel of Matthew this Christmas season, Matthew and Luke talk alot about the birth of Jesus, and that at least in America is what we are doing at Christmas, celebrating the Birth of our Lord, God bless YOU this Christmas!!!

Someone once said to me that The Bible was just another Fairy Tale. Except someone decided to actually believe in everything that was written because it all sounded SO GOOD and decided to take this fairy tale one step further and persuade others to believe in it too. Since then, people have and do believe in God and that the Bible really IS the word of God.
I know what your saying, this is something that makes alot of people question the Bible and all that is written. Why would God allow animals to die and suffer? Why would he allow children to die and suffer? Why would he allow fires and other natrual disarters to take the lives of others and distroy crops?
Why would he allow some countries to go without rain for many months sometimes years so everyone gets sick and dies of disease? There seems to plenty of questions going against God and many questions asking why.
Many Christians will tell you that these are not to do with God, but the work of Man and of Satan. However, then the question will be....Does God not rule and have more power over Satan? Im not a Christain myself and i like your question.

Science is the reason most of us don't believe the bible...no dinosaurs in there because the person that wrote the bible story was around 1000's of years before the scientists found the evidence that dino's walked the earth...

The original texts (both Hebrew and Greek) are over 2000 years old, the word dinosaur was first used in 1884.
In the Bible it calls them Leviathan, Behemoth, unicorn and dragons.

well, since the work of fiction was written by man, naturally man gets the starring role, since dinosaurs couldn't write, they don't get a mention
