    man and dinosaurs never coexisted...
    the bible cant be taken as a verbatim historical account...



    I agree men and dinosaur didnt walk the earth at the same time, its impossible on so many levels. But in the bible there isn't any small disclosure (read the fine print) text saying not to take this word for word. They just say its the word of ? . So its either word for all true or its all ? . Its no middle ground.

    Basically, the brontosaurus (that long necked ? ? ) has been taken out of all books as it didn't exist, it was conceived through an error with the assembly of some bones. Actually happened cause they mixed several different dinosaurs up.

    If they have been wrong once, they could easily be more times.

    didnt they also find out that a triceratops was just a young version of something else?

    ehhh....i think there can be middle ground. i think any rational person can see that the bible isnt a 100% factual historical document. its filled with stories and lessons, and a little history. i take it as just that. for the lessons, if i take it at all.

    you gotta remember when the bible was written...you couldve been killed for questioning if it was the word of ? ...so ofcourse people took it as that. some still do

    smh.. all my favorite dinosaurs are all shams

    to be honest bruh...the apatosaurus, which the brontosaurus actually is looks very similar to the pics that we've been taught, its not that far off...but you gotta remember when a lot of these fossils were found...people had a lot to learn....we still do

    My theory is that the stuff going on during the bible times were happening in Africa. While dinosaurs were roaming other parts of earth. Unless otherwise were dinosaurs living in Africa too?

    The confusion comes cause the bible says in the beginning ? made Adam and Eve.......if that's the case did dinosaurs roam the earth before this date? Bible states that the earth was just wasteland so that can't be possible. So that means they must of roamed the earth after mankind was created. Except how could mankind survive on a plant inhabited by killer dinosaurs?

    I'd have to check with one of the guys familiar with Hebrew, but I believe the original text states "In A beginning". Its entirely possible have faith and believe there were dinosaurs.

    There is no way man and dinosaur could of co-existed. Humans would of been breakfast, lunch and dinner for them muhfuggas. This is a question my mother can't even answer and she a Jehovahs Witness. It's scientifically proven dinosaurs roamed the earth. So was that before mankind? The bible states that the earth was uninhabitable before ? created the earth in six days and then rested on the seventh. How would mankind survive if dinosaurs roamed?

    I'm not saying I believe. The fact there was dinosaurs is the one thing that makes me question Christianity.

    there is always a margin of error when it comes to isotope dating. but if the dinosaurs went extinct at the end of the cretaceous period and the beginning of the tertiary period, using argon-argon dating, that's around 65.95 million years ago (give or take 40,000 years). and the earliest ? sapien remains found are about 195,000 years ago, there's still no way that human beings and dinosaurs coexisted

    You sound so smart, or did you copy and paste that from wikipedia, LOL, j/k.

    1. I believe man is way older than we think, i also don't believe in creation nor evolution.
    2. Ya'll do realize the ? ya'll read (the Bible) had books removed from it by Constantine the Great at the Council of Nicea. Believing in the bible is like believing Wikipedia information.
    3. Yes dinosaurs existed, there is fossil evidence to prove that. The problem with religion and science is people act like they can't coexist, to me science is the language of a greater power.
