Dinasaurs & such

If I may be so kind, another explanation is that Noah took two of each kind onto the Ark. If I were he, I would have definitely taken two of the smallest kind of dinosaur that I could find.

 

Jim,

Are you suggesting that you have mastered the fauna and ecology of the Amazon Basin to the same extent that my two-year-old grandson has mastered quantum mechanics? Here is a brief quote from the abstract of an article he wrote that was published last month in the American Journal of Astrophysics:

Thanks a lot ! Now I have to upgrade the security on my computer before by grandson reads your post and gets his hopes up for winning the Nobel Prize in physics!

 

That is most likly the case, how ever if God wanted adult t-rex on the ship, who am I to say God didn't tame the t-rex for the 40 days? Daniel was thrown into the Lions den, and God tamed the Lions, nothing is out of reach for God.

 

No, I am most certainly not joking. And I never implied that we could grow a lizard into a dinasaur by feeding it gatorade and miracle-gro. That's ridiculous!!! I just stated what I believed to be the correct answer and the one that makes the most sense to me. It was a different time back before the flood. People lived much longer, why wouldn't the animals??? And true to my theory, I don't believe that Noah took grown T-rex on the arc due to space confinements...however, I could be wrong....God is the God of the impossible.

 

Well said!! Most of the time we say that, but don't live it.

 

God has set limits upon himself. For example, He can not lie, cheat, or steal. And I don’t believe that He can do the foolish, ridiculous, or the absurd, for it would be very much out of his character to do so.

that is why your theory of dinosaurs doen't fly.

 

And what about the feathers? Some dinosaurs had feathers. Where are the modern shrimpy versions of lizards with feathers?

 

Good point Paul, the answer is...exstinct thats where, if evolution is real than why are animals becoming extinct instead of evolving? Do I win the booby prize?

 

Sorry ! The process of natural selection has its limitations. When ecosystems are suddenly destroyed there is no time for natural selection to preserve the species that were dependent upon that ecosystem, and consequently extinction of those species is often inevitable. The ecosystems that most of the dinosaurs were dependent upon were suddenly destroyed, probably by the a very large meteor that hit the earth in the Yucatan Peninsula and threw so much debris into the air that the sun was not able to shine through it in sufficient amounts to allow the ecosystems upon which most of the dinosaurs were dependent to survive.

Nice try, though!

 

or a great flood

 

There is no evidence for such a flood prior to the time of Noah.

 

There is no evedince of dinosuars before creation either.

 

The SAME evidence is there for all to see. The only true difference is that some people want to believe what "man" (science) says about the evidence, while others prefer to just take God at His word about the past.

Me? I'll trust God's word over mans when there is a difference.

 

AMEN!!!JWP

The 6 days of creation are the epic summary of creation by catagory as originally understood by men prior to the rise of science. While it is not feasible to reconcile the known facts of creation with this narrative interpreted literally, it is certainly possible to understand them as being quite true, when interpreted in a non literal fashion. All that is necessary is to consider the days as being symbolic of long ages and to realize that these long ages are not presented in the literal order they came in.

But unfortunately there are a great many who have hardened their hearts and minds into opposition to the findings of modern science. They think they are serving God to do this; whereas others including myself feel they are in truth asking men to choose between intellectual or spiritual integrety. That is, of course, a false dichotomy.
