If dinosaurs could talk, What would they say about GOD and Religion?
453192
Nothing about either. They were around before manking invented religion, or even existed. And they had no dealings with God.

Why would it be funny for the God who made the mouth and ear to talk to man?

If the dinosaurs were followers of Islam, then it may explain what happened to all of them>>they may have been carried off to heaven.

Fundies don't like to deal with that fact. You're an intelligent and insightful person for just bringing it up. Golf clap to you, sir/ma'am.\nThe reason there's no mention of dinosaurs or other megafauna in the bible is because back in the day, people couldn't deal with the idea of "prehistory". These creatures all died out aeons ago, so only fossils were left. If someone happened across the fossilized remains of a dinosaur, or even a mammoth, they'd just call it a "giant" and be done with it. (interesting fact: that's where the cyclops myth came from. The skull of a mammoth has its eye sockets set very close together, so it looks like there's only one eye. And it's big...so there ya go. :)

Good luck...\n\nCan a Christian believe in evolution?  I do.  I know that this world hasn't always been as we know it now.  I know that I as a homo sapien, evolved from something else.  God can create and destroy as he so chooses.\n\nWhy then are dinosaurs not in the Bible?\nWhy does the Bible not reference such catastrophic events that wiped them out?\n\nIn my opinion, because it isn't something we necessarily need concern ourselves with.  The fact that GIANT lizards once walked this earth is pretty darned fascinating.  Can we learn anything from them?  Unless we want to turn ourselves into giant lizards I think not.\n\nWhat we need to concern ourselves with is the history as it is written in the Bible.  The Bible is not only a religious tool, but also one that can be studied for it's historical content and story.  \n\nDo I believe the stories? YES!  Do I believe that everything happened exactly as it is written? YES!  \n\nI believe the world was created in seven days.  But what is our definition of days compared to Godly days.  \n\nThat we will not know until we can ask our creator.  (But frankly, by the time I die and go to heaven, Days will hardly matter to me anymore.)

I'm not hearing your prayers?  Actually I do hear them, I just think they're petty, so I ignore them.  I've decided to test you faith, I'd like to hear your explanation of why I created dinosaurs?

The theory that Satan put the dinosaur bones on this earth to confuse people and make them doubt god and what the bible says. \n\nConsidering there are modern day descendants of dinosaurs still roaming the earth.

They're mentioned in the Bible I think in the way that a primitive society would write about dinosaurs. As giant beast and dragons and so forth.\n\nIf you listen to most Christians rhetoric about the dinosaurs, you'll realize they cannot reconcile archaeological findings with their own beliefs. Many of them deny the existence of dinosaurs all together. Some say they're not as old as science has claimed. Some even say they lived on other planets and when G*d used the material to make the earth he took the bones with it.\n\nThe fact of the matter is we are living with people who use an outdated reference guide for life. They cannot admit that they've been had. The earth is not 6000 years old. The earth is not 10,000 years old. Dinosaurs DID exist. And we evolved from a species similar to ourselves.\n\nI won't claim G*D did not create the dinosaurs....as I don't know. \nAnd I won't claim science is perfect....we all know it's not.\nBut when you take the overwhelming preponderance of evidence and throw it all out the window because of a book your mommy told you was true.....well, that's just stupid.

God created the universe and everything in it in 6 days.  He rested on the 7th.  And what does that have to do with dinosaurs?

Some people infer that he is talking about dinosaurs.

no because by any logic those dinosaur couples would not only have crowded everyone else off the ark, but would also have sunk it. since the bible never mentions that the ark sunk due to overweight brontosaurii, dinosaurs are blasphemy.\n\nyou do know that we're both going to hell for being involved with this question? if you bring the sunscreen, i'll bring the shades and Jimmy Buffet tape.

You are nuts!. . .Because the dinosaurs died doesn't mean God failed. . .it means the dinos are in Heaven!  (Except the ones who didn't accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, and the ones who were gay dinosaurs, or voted Democrat.)

It is refering to a creature which is huge. Namely a dinosaur. God is telling job that none could tame such a beast.. And in the same way you cannot tame God or control him. God was using the Behemoth as an example to Job. =)\n\nBehemouth\n\n has the following attributes according to Job 40:15-24\n\n\nIt “eats grass like an ox.” \nIt “moves his tail like a cedar.” (In Hebrew, this literally reads, “he lets hang his tail like a cedar.”) \nIts “bones are like beams of bronze,\nHis ribs like bars of iron.” \n“He is the first of the ways of God.” \n“He lies under the lotus trees,\nIn a covert of reeds and marsh.” \n\n\nWe would expect behemoth to be a large land animal whose bones are like beams of bronze and so forth, so whatever a behemoth is, it is large. A key phrase is “He is the first of the ways of God.” This phrase in the original Hebrew implied that behemoth was the biggest animal created. Although an elephant or a hippopotamus are big, they are less than one-tenth the size of a Brachiosaurus, the largest (complete) dinosaur ever discovered.[1] A Brachiosaurus could therefore easily be described as “the first of the ways of God.”

That's interesting that you ask if they were his pets because of this verse from the book of Job that describes some type of gigantic creature with a Hebrew word whose translation is uncertain and long before the modern term "dinosaur" came into use.\n\nHere God is talking to Job about what He can do and asking Job if he thinks that he can do the same.\n\nJob 41:1  "Can you draw out Leviathan with a fishhook or press down his tongue with a cord?  (2)  Can you put a rope in his nose or pierce his jaw with a hook?  (3)  Will he make many pleas to you? Will he speak to you soft words?  (4)  Will he make a covenant with you to take him for your servant forever?\n\nliwyātān: I. A masculine proper noun meaning Leviathan. It describes a huge indomitable being that God created and whom only He fully comprehends and controls.\n\nA further description God gives of this animal makes it seem like a sea going fire breathing dragon.\n\nJob 41:15  His back is made of rows of shields, shut up closely as with a seal.  (16)  One is so near to another that no air can come between them.  (17)  They are joined one to another; they clasp each other and cannot be separated.  (18)  His sneezings flash forth light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the dawn.  (19)  Out of his mouth go flaming torches; sparks of fire leap forth.  (20)  Out of his nostrils comes forth smoke, as from a boiling pot and burning rushes.  (21)  His breath kindles coals, and a flame comes forth from his mouth.\n\n\nHere's another unknown creature that God asks Job about.\n\nJob 40:15  Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.  (16)  Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.  (17)  He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.  (18)  His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.  (19)  He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.  (20)  Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.  (21)  He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.  (22)  The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.  (23)  Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.  (24)  He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.

No. This is because Dinosaurs died out around 65 Million years ago. The bible refers to events in the last few thousand years. According to fundementalist christians the world was created 4000 years ago. The are even building a museum in America which shows Dinosaurs living side by side with humans. THIS IS NOT CORRECT AND IS INSANE TO BELIEVE. There was a programme on the BBC on this museum a few days ago which showed one of those big horned dinosaurs with a sadlle on which gave me a good laugh! I think their reason for the Dinosaurs not surviving the flood was that they couldn't fit on the ark, which also gave me a good laugh ;)
