Dinosaurs have been extinct for millions of years text books say - What a crock! Any fool with access to the Internet can make an educated decision to what to believe for oneself. Where does knowledge come from anyway - school - no. "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge" Proverbs 1:7. But wait dinosaurs are not mentioned in the Bible right? WRONG, they are, and quite frequently in the Old Testament. The reason the actual word "Dinosaurs" doesn't appear is because the word itself did not exist in 1611 when you Bible was originally written in English. Not until 1841 to be exact did the word first appear - deemed so by Sir Richard Owen, a British Museum Superintendent. Dinosaur means "terrible lizard". No dictionary, school text book, or scholarly gent used the word before 1841 either since it did not exist.
The most common word in the Bible for dinosaurs is "DRAGON". Yes they did exist, just under a different name. The Bible also uses other names for Dino's such as "sea monsters", "fiery flying serpent", and "behemoth". If you think they died out 235 million years age and no human being ever existed before they died out you better not read Job 40:15-19 " 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". And don't dare read Job 41 about the great Leviathan with scales the size of human shields that nothing can penetrate. Job lived with these beast and describes them to a "T". Say you don't want to accept the Bible - then look at the Sumerian story in 2000BC - where Gilgamesh encountered a huge vicious dragon (remember all Dino's were called dragons), which he slew, cutting off its head as a trophy. Hunting dragons/dinosaurs became sport - St. George of England is recorded slaying a dragon that lived in a cave. 330 BC records that Alexander the Great and his soldiers marched into India and found Indians worshiping a huge hissing reptiles that they kept in caves. What is the connection with caves and Dino's? Puff the magic dragon lived down by the sea in a cave did he. Wonder how that song came about? China is renowned for its dragon stories, and dragons are prominent on Chinese pottery, and carvings. The Chinese flag still bares the dragon/Dino symbol today.
Extinct you say - no - just read a 15th century Encyclopedia that states dragons were becoming extinct, meaning they were not yet extinct. WOW Miss McGillicutty had it all wrong in Science class. Even Ancient rock paintings in White River Canyon, Utah show that a Sauropod Dino existed with them. Are you ready for the clincher? A hunting party of Navajo Indians got caught in a thunderstorm in the late 1500's according to their own history. They hid from the storm under a high mountain rock cliff, where they beheld a giant bird that got struck by lightening and fall to the ground in the bright flash of light in the night time sky. Then next day after the storm had passed they tracked it down and found the dead 6 ft tall 40 lb bird that had a 33 foot wing span and a bone that protrudes out the back of its head like a horn some 18 inches long = they described a Pterodactyl (Pteranodons)to the button, and they called it the thunder bird = the thunder bird today appears on the car bearing the same name (and you thought that was a fighting rooster). So then, whipped out by ice or hunted out for sport? The later seems more likely! Lockness may be real and Puff a real dragon/Dinosaur. The evidence they exsisted only a few hundred years ago is quite overwhelming, so yes EVERY WORD in my Bible is true.
