The point was to show atheists how absurd and downright annoying many of the games they play are by playing the same game back concerning the existence of dinosaurs. When I was in high school I worked in a pharmacy, and two of the pharmacy techs got into this very same squabble. It was one of the most hilarious things I had ever seen, because you really can’t “prove” dinosaurs existed, and the one tech was very good at pushing that point.
Except that you "proved" no such point. You picked a terrible cross to bleed and die on because the existence of dinosaurs is well demonstrated, the difference between fossils and rocks well understood. There is no discord, there is no doubt. This is why your constant appeals to your version of logic are plainly retarded. While science is mostly built upon induction, it works. Further, the problem of induction has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not these fossils were bone, because no induction is required. That's just chemistry, anatomy, geology, it's cut and dry. Induction comes in when we determine that they were once alive. What would the logical argument to the contrary be (how else could these things be explained)? See how pointless this is? The inductive "leap" if you will, is that all things with bones were once alive (nothing specifically to do with dinosaurs at all). If you want to argue that, be my guest. It's not exactly equivalent to god claims, or the act of being skeptical about such claims. So just stop.
