I believe dinosaurs existed and they died with the great flood...timelines by both biblical scholars and scientist are just conjecture and not fact.

God made the Earth old and functioning just like Adam was formed an adult male and not a baby.

And so, the age-old debate gets kick-started once more.

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Alberta, Canada. If you are ever in Calgary, it's worth a day-trip. For those who don't know, it is the premiere dinosaur museum in Canada, and probably one of the best in the world.

Just like how Jesus was able to bypass the aging process when He turned water into wine :)

Yes, DINOSAURS WALKED WITH MAN!!!!! But only to people that believe the Word of G-d is true!

For some reason people do not believe G-d. If 6 days is not real please explain to me how some man dying on a cross, coming back from the dead, and returning? If you can explain to me how the Messiah/Jesus thing is real according to Scripture but Creation and the integrity of the rest of G-d's Word is not then I "might" think G-d is wrong.... But He would have to be wrong about such a fantastical story about this jesus stuff too.... I man science proves it!!!! RIGHT!?! Has science proved a man dying, rising from the dead and coming back to save the world!?!

Well, there is a problem, dinosaurs need a totally different ecosystem, different from the ecosystem homo sapiens need!!!!!

Now what???!!!!!

And where in G-d w-r-d have you read that m-n walked with d-n-s-r-s????

Ok what is that or what you are saying is equal to the Word of G-d?

I am not that smart, I just think science has not caught up with G-d! Science has NEVER DISPROVED G-d, it either does not know yet but when it finds out IT ALLS PROVES THE BIBLE TRUE!!!

So where does science PROVE G-D WRONG?

How could dinosaurs coexist with homo sapiens when these two species need a totally different ecosystem?

Its like saying that Adam and Eve lived underwater.

I believe in evolution and that God created it as a mechanism for humans and animals to adapt to changing conditions of the Earth after the fall of Adam and Eve.

The first age of earth was the Garden of Eden. Even science tells us of pangea and how it was in the equator with more tropical climate.

The next age is after the flood and the tower of Babel. I believe this time corresponds with science breaking up of the continents.

In ages past people lived for thousands of years.

Most of humanity believes we are growing and becoming better as time progress.

I believe we are losing more and more of God's original plan as the world 'ages. Like the cause of aging, the ends are not copy exactly...the ends are shorten.

The many species we have are not caused by new mutations but isolation of the original species where they lose the ability to reproduce with the main population.

Geneticists have traced that we may all have come from one woman who lived about where the Bible says Eden would have been through mitochondrial DNA (which is passed from mother to child and not changed by the fathers DNA)

Anyway, my belief is that each Age spoken of in he Bible the laws for nature changes.

Before the flood, plants were watered by mist NOT rain.

Science makes the assumption that the laws of nature we have now is always true. However even now we know that the laws of gravity don't apply in space as it does in earth,

The book of Revelation tells us how the world is changing now and how eventually this world will be destroyed and replaced with one that has no seas....no salt water.

For example the depletion of the ozone layer will cause more cancer.

If the magnetic field around the Earth were to fail, what do you think will happen?

Also we have evidence that God changed human bodies: Adam and Eve were created to never die.

We also have the promise that the bodies we have now will not be the ones we spend eternity in.

Therefore I propose the theory that humanity before the flood had bodies that lived thousands of years and could have existed in the proposed environment alongside dinosaurs if God willed it.

Or God could have planted the dinoaaur bones in the Earth to test us.

Hyphotesis, not theory :)

1. Your hypothesis does not answer my objection - different ecosystems. Dinosaurs need different flora and fauna, oxygen level etc than humans, dogs or cows.

2. Fossils - geological columns show a slow development of organisms from simple to complex, there is not any human found with a dinosaur, a cow with a trilobite, a dog with a pterodactyle. Eras of different organisms are separated by millions of years spans.

How does this fit with your view?

---

Let us ignore the possibility that God created young earth looking old or that He created just fossils without the organisms ever really living and other not disprovable postulates, for now.

Another possible view:

A) World´s history - what happened in our reality, events in our 4D world

B) Sacred history - what spiritual meanings the world´s history has, recorded in Bible

I love Jurassic Park but I find it funny how scientists know how intelligent or how a dinosaur behaved from bones.
