Why is there no mention of dinosaurs in the great book?

RE: Why is there no mention of dinosaurs in the great book?
Asses are mentioned 120 time, dogs 41 times.

There are 33 different kinds of birds mentioned.

Ox, sheep, goats mentioned numerous times.

Yet, the many species of dino not mentioned even once. No raptor attacks, no reports of Argentinosaurus trampling houses, no mentions of pterosaurs swooping down to steel children...

Bill Hicks has some pretty funny things to say about this -

"And O, Jesus and the disciples walked to Nazareth. But the trail was blocked by a giant brontosaurus... with a splinter in its paw. And the disciples did run a-screamin'. "What a big fucking lizard, Lord!"
"I'm sure gonna mention this in my book," Luke said.
"Well, I'm sure gonna mention it in my book," Matthew said.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
