Quote:Since the word "dinosaur" was not created until the 19th Century by Richard Owen (Creationist) I would not expect to see an ancient Hebrew word for it. However the word "dragon" is used numerious times in the Old Testament. It is used symbolically at times but also used when talking about everyday animals.Your Achilles' heel has been bolded for your review and consideration. The Bible is not to be taken literally, it speaks figuratively, often containing metaphors rather than addressing what it is actually elaborating upon therefore open to anyone's interpretation. You can play semantics with us all day if you like: Dragons aren't dinosaurs.
Quote:If I ran into a dinosaur before the word dinosaur was created I probably would describe them as dragons as well.What? Now you're just messing with us.

Still does not change the fact that a Creationists named your beloved Dinosaurs, ironic.Still does not change the fact your beloved Creationist agreed with Darwin that evolution did actually occur. Such a shame.
Quote:Humans are only a species of primate because Evolutionists stuck them in that group based on their Evolutionairy ideas. So it does not prove anything that they are there.You mean taxonomists - they established biological orders.
