If you ask a die hard Christian's, they will tell you that the dinosaurs never lived, and were only put on earth in fossils to test our own faith.

That's an opinion by many perhaps, but not promoted by most Christian churches...

There isn't any mention of dinosaurs in the Bible, and you can't really take "7 days" literally since it was written so long ago. There is no archaeological records of humans exsisting 65 million years ago, and if they did, they wouldn't have lasted too long.

Please... like you've read the Bible? You apparently haven't since it explicitly said animals were created in Genesis, and are dinosaurs not animals?
Or perhaps you were expecting the word "dinosaur" to actually be in the bible when it's more of a recent term... rofl. And I guess you expected it to be written "Elephants were created. Kangaroos were created. Pigs were created. Whales were created. Spiders were created. Moths were created. Lions were created. Monkeys were created. Pigeons were created. ..." and list all animals for you. Or perhaps you think they should be mentioned above other animals because they were bigger... I mean, come on.
Perhaps you'll remember biblical mentionings of such beasts as "leviathan" and "behemoth"... (wait never mind, you wouldn't...)

You could just admit that the story of creation never happened and is nothing more than the story. Humans were "created" one day after animals yea carbon dating has proven that animals thousands of years before humans.

no, according to the bible, humans were created AFTER animals.

And you could admit that you're a genius. Since both statements would hold the same ground.

The accuracy of carbon dating is very shaky and relies on unproven assumptions about the carbon proportions throughout the years.

So that's no more proof than the Bible is proof of Christianity.
I rather ignorantly follow priests (not saying that I do) than ignorantly follow scientists.

EVEN if carbon dating is wrong, why would there be NO human documents of pre-humanity animals. Not to mention the fact that God would make a bunch of animals then kill them off the same day.

At least scientists attempt to validate their arguments instead of "I'm right and if you don't believe that is why you don't understand".

I'm not even saying evolution is true, I'm saying the genesis story is a story, hell even a metaphor, just not exactly true.
 
Adam And Eve Were Dinosaurs! Duh!
 
That is exactly why I don't believe in the bible, its been proven wrong, and truthfully makes no sense. I believe in god, though.
 
Inthe bible it says God made the earth, and the bible is true so there you go
 
well as i recall , i havent read the bible in quite some time (was back when i was a little kid ) dont really remember most the stuff but , the guy that got kicked out think it was either abel or kain , that got kicked out of the garden , had went with some of the animals or there was some people he was scared of , or something like that , anways so that tells you that there was things out there other than just them. so it could be something like that , also it doesnt really explain what the garden was like , or how big it was for all we know it could have been the whole earth , and out of the garden was just like one of the deserts , you dont really know , so it all depends. it could have been the whole earth in which if that was the case there was most definitely dinosaurs n other creatures

also dinosaurs are considered reptiles i believe , and it says somewhere in the bible that the devil created reptiles\ creatures of the sand , or something along those lines as i said before not really in touch on the bible ive kinda laughed and gave up on religion , beings the bible is the biggest book of lies there is , and if there is a god then why does he\she let some of the insane\sad things happen in the world , so if god exists i wont believe it until i get some proof , and if not believe means i go to hell then so be it.
 
This is intresting, indeed.

But why everyone wants to proof that God does/doesn't exist here?

I mean, what's the point?

You got to judge yourself if you ask me, believe what YOU want to believe.

OT; Dinosaurs are animals indeed, so he's right.
 
do you read the bible? first thing god created was the heaven and earth. then clouds, then darkness and dy. and so on. he didn't creat humans till the 6th day. animals were created before this. on like the 3rd 4th and 5th day.
and maybe dinosaurs are some of the animals that were created and didn't survive the flood.
 
Blablabla ... how can people belive these things :S?
Looking from here - northern europe,you all look a bit locos to me.
 
The bible really, is not ment to be taken figuratively.

It's more of a basis, which provides comfort to society, using examples of God's Powers.

The whole First Chapters of the Bible, Genesis etc, are not taken literally by most Christians, but comment, that God, in one way or another had a hand in creating the world. Humans being the most sophisticated mammals, are an example of just how extensive his creations were.

Also, and more directly regarding your question, the bible was written by ancient peoples, before and after jesus, at this time, there were no dinosaurs, neither was there the technology to prove any such things existed.

The Bible on really states Adam and Eve, because the people writing it, had no knowledge of such creatures before their time, again this ties in with the illiteral meaning and perception of the bible.
 
It's because God isn't real. Religeon is a lie. Well, thats just my opinion, no offence to you and your beliefs.
