Tell us about the dinosaurs

[Statler Waldorf]

So Statler - are you actually going to give us an answer instead of beating around the bush.

Yes, we know about Leviathan being mentioned in the OT which Creationists point to and say "Look - Dinosaur!" but that is pretty weak. Every mythology things like Chimera, Sphinx, Dragons, Unicorns, Fairies, etc... doesn't make it true.

Yes, you have made your point about Brontosaurs several times, lets pretend i said a different Dinosaur, eg Triceratops, Diplodocus, etc.

Come on... give us your belief of the Dinos.

@Ace - about the ignoring. Why? If we ignore the theists then there will not be many to debate with, and besides, its fun. I can't wait to hear his story of the dinosaurs, i'm sure it will be a blast.

Well the Leviathan was most likely a plesiosaurian reptile, which I am sure you are aware are not true dinosaurs. However, the Behemoth would have most likely been a true dinosaur, one of the sauropods is a good assumption. These were not supposed to be fictitious creatures or monsters of folklore. Job uses them real animals that people would have been familiar with and would have seen. To compare them to unicorns is a bit of a stretch. As for dragons that might be a better comparison. Often real animals become embellished and become the stuff of legend, we saw this with Buffalo and the Native Americans and Elephants in India. So to say that dragon legends could not have arisen from dinosaurs is not necessarily true. There is lots of evidence that the Chinese viewed Dragons as real animals and not mythological creatures (which are westernized brains loves to do). In the Chinese calendar, the other eleven animals used are all real animals- so it's pretty fair to assume that when they devised this calendar they viewed dragons as a real animal too.

What else would you like to know?

Evolutionists stuck them in that group based on their Evolutionairy ideas. Based on the overwhelming mountain of evidence.

Intentionally misquoting someone by using the [quote] function is a very severe offense on every other fourm I have been on. I hope that is also the case on this forum.
