Evolution is a man made theory only for the purpose of attempting to disprove the existence of God

I call those that promote this "evil-lutionary" idea the bone peddlers

The point is that the Bible's account of creation is truth because it is the Word of the Creator Himself

..... believe, it or not

I repeat..

What are you basing your dinosaur comment on

Read the Genesis account and attempt to get it straight ..... in the process you should be able to figure this out for yourself

I will give you a clue ..... humanity is about 6000 years old .... how old are the bones?

Don't be a cat on a hot tin roof

One either believes the Bible is the Creator's Word .... or they do not

If no .... then one will believe anything that comes along if it suits them

Your the one avoiding questions. Your the one who made a bold statement.

I ask again..

Where in the bible does it mention dinosaurs... And better yet where does it mention God wiped them all out?

And I will tell you once again .... if you will truly believe in God, ask Him and He will show you

If you don't, He never will

I could ask you for your scriptural support for evolution .... but I will not

..... because I know you cannot do this

If you want to know the truth you must be born again .... then He will lead you into all truth including His acts of creation

An unregenerate human is nothing more than a dead man walking around .... for a little while

So you might want to consider the experience .... ask Him and see what happens

Once again you totally avoid answering the question.

Regardless of what I or anyone else believes, regardless of people's stances on evolution etc...

Where in the bible does it say God wiped out the dinosaurs?

Is it in there... Yes or No

Dinosaur is fairly new word, from the 1800s, "powerful lizard " another word for powerful lizard that's used all over the world is

No because you can't continue it.

All that's happened is.. You have your bible, which you believe is true, and then your confronted with something else that is fact but not mentioned in your bible so you fill the gaps for your own ends and then try and pass it off as some sort of revalation that I'm not fit to receive.

We've both read the same text... Just because you believe it and i don't doesn't mean you've read something different to what I have. The same words are on the page for both of us.

Yea the first paragraph in your link summed it up well..

"A dragon is a legendary creature, typically with serpentine or reptilian traits, that features in the myths of many cultures."

You are missing some important information. First, DNA has never been found in dinosaur remains, but they are looking for it. Horner explained that their hopes are not high. Furthermore, Schweitzer has explained that soft tissue, to date, has only been found in exceptionally well preserved fossils. Specifically, she has only found it in fully articulated remains. For the iron, itself, to survive the samples must have been exceptionally well preserved in the first place, so the remainder of your criticism does not apply. You need to get your facts straight.

Notice I put the "can" in quotes. I suggest you read up on the past 30 years of progress extracting DNA from dinosaur bones. If you have access to a typical university science department or government subscription you can find hundreds of actual science articles on the subject. I think this one is free. http://www.gsejournal.org/content/44/1/21 The better ones start at $32 a copy without a subscription. I see it is illegal to post them online, so you are on your own. The point here is it is not true "First, DNA has never been found in dinosaur remains," . DNA is in fact being extracted, has been for decades, but much of the early work has been ignored/dismissed for various reasons. But the research persists because there is DNA and it can be extracted by improved methods today, but the main problem is rarity of enough sample to carry out worthwhile research, such as from one molecule.

I do appreciate your confession "Genuine scientists don't like making absolute claims, they leave that for the religious types."

It is very true that modern science in the guise of false theories like evolution is no longer true science when it amounts to mostly guesswork based on philosophy. Naturalism is a philosophy, a belief system based on a tendency of sinners o support atheism. Of course evolutionist quasi-scientists can't go out on a limb with absolutes, as that makes them a large target and exposed to embarrassment. Scientists with integrity who know God have their eyes opened to truth and can be far more certain about empirical data observations and conclusions because theirs actually make common sense, too. Couple that with the Bible testimony from God and you get absolutes that will be honored by God. He is already honoring "religious types" , more specifically Bible believers in the science fields, especially astrophysics and genetics. Atheist scientists will be dishonored by God, as has already happened among those who perpetrated evolution frauds to the detriment of young minds and souls.
