Why did they come before humans, and not after. Unless of cause god was planning to put humans after the dinosaurs 16 million years later.
And which do you think is more reliable, 16 000 000 year old evidence OR a 2000 year old book written by humans.,and which can only be relied on Faith and nothing else.I mean, which of you have actually SEEN god?
And would you find it surprising as the bible seems to mention "everything", but yet know nothing of dinosaurs? The only animals mentioned are those that exists then(during the time the bible was written), and the dinosaurs had already extinct, so of course they wouldn't know about it. Doesn't this prove something?

16 million years?
The dinosaurs were essentially wiped out 65 million years ago. Where are you getting that 16 million number?

Good morning Earl. I want to wish you and yours a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
As for the dinosaur "test". I flunked that one!
Peace be with you

It's 65 million not 16 million.

The bible does not mention dinosaurs - it's merely a coincidence.
There is no "test" because there is no "God".
The flaws in the bible have proved to many that it is merely a book.
It saddens me that a living, calculating human being could ever rely on the bible for anything other than religious myths and stories.

Earl,
ok here's the thing.
the bible does mention dinosaurs in several different places. the Leviathan, the behemoth etc.
you want to know which is more reliable evidence that was conducted and collected by MAN or the word of God that was inspired by God. I'll take God any day. I've seen quite a few of this evidence they have collect the same carbon dating they use on dinosaur bones they tested Abraham Lincoln and said he was 20 thousand years old.
who needs to see God, I have seen his results,
when I prayed I saw the results, Have you ever saw the wind?
but yet you believe in it because you have seen it's results.

it is a test and you passed!
though it is 65 million years :)
and to the fundies, you can't carbon date dinosaur fossils it's only useful up to 50,000 years. Other types of dating is used.

You are basing all of your problems with the time set by "scientists" who tell you that the dinosaurs preceded man and lived 16 million years ago. They have based their time scale on assumptions that assume that the Bible is incorrect and that God can not exist, only natural processes. Most of them didn't even accept global events until quite recently.
The Bible clearly states that man was made only just after the animals. The Bible does give multiple accounts of dinosaurs but of course by different names as that one came about in recent history.
The only thing that you have proven is that you are relying on the scientists to tell you the history of the earth and it's life. Are you aware of all the faulty assumptions that they utilize in order to come to that story that they're selling you?
Hope that helps.

the bible does not have to give a list...it just says all the land animals were created...and then all th birds of the sky etc....
all animals were created before man..... Job, the oldest book in the bible mentions the dinosaur under another name, behemoth.
no one in the present can really prove the time difference between the creation of animals and man....no one was there...and everything is just speculation.

A test? That's a new one. Why would a perfect God need to work on a trial and error basis?
