    Let me understand this. You are giving a lecture about reading Scripture, and those who twist verses out of context to match a warped opinion. Is this what I am hearing?

    I am saying that when a person has scripture and rejects it for their own desires and beliefs, either adding to it, taking away from it, or outright rejecting it, all they have is sandy ground to stand on. There were Dinosaurs after the flood as the bible and science both bear that out. As for Science all one has to do is look at the many pictures that have been draw on caves by early man and them hunting them to kill or eat or being eaten by them. For sure they at least believed even if some today won’t. The only issue is not if they were after the flood but do we believe the bible account as well as scientific evidence?

    I do not think such detailed evidence is necessary. But crocodiles are dinosaurs so, I guess a couple were on board. Nonetheless, almost of the dinosaurs worldwide became extinct in the same time period...

    What evidence do you have to back that up?

    Then there are the Komodo Dragons which have thrived in the harsh climate of Indonesia's Lesser Sunda Islands for millions of years, although amazingly, their existence was unknown to humans until about 100 years ago.

    Reaching 10 feet (3 meters) in length and more than 300 pounds (136 kilograms), Komodo dragons are the heaviest lizards on Earth. They have long, flat heads with rounded snouts, scaly skin, bowed legs, and huge, muscular tails.

    As the dominant predators on the handful of islands they inhabit, they will eat almost anything, including carrion, deer, pigs, smaller dragons, and even large water buffalo and humans. When hunting, Komodo dragons rely on camouflage and patience, lying in wait for passing prey. When a victim ambles by, the dragon springs, using its powerful legs, sharp claws and serrated, shark-like teeth to eviscerate its prey.

    Animals that escape the jaws of a Komodo will only feel lucky briefly. Dragon saliva teems with over 50 strains of bacteria, and within 24 hours, the stricken creature usually dies of blood poisoning. Dragons calmly follow an escapee for miles as the bacteria takes effect, using their keen sense of smell to hone in on the corpse. A dragon can eat a whopping 80 percent of its body weight in a single feeding.

    There is a stable population of about 3,000 to 5,000 Komodo dragons on the islands of Komodo, Gila Motang, Rinca, and Flores. However, a dearth of egg-laying females, poaching, human encroachment, and natural disasters has driven the species to endangered status.
