There was Noah's Ark, the bible specifically states that not every creature made it to the ark.

The world was an evil place with many evil things.

Would you want a TREX chasing you?

No, he's stating they could have died out during the flood that God created during Noah's time.

Please do some basic study on art, specifically ancient artwork. It was rarely "to scale". Also, for many reasons man would draw something to be the same size as man, such as an ego thing. You make the creature smaller to make yourself seem "bigger". Many of the text descriptions have descriptions that do not fit small dinosaurs. For instance, the Behemoth having a tail like a "cedar tree" (Job 40:17, from the bible).

Here is one example. Does that mean these birds were the size of man (or bigger?). No, of course not. They didn't draw to scale during this time. :P


Many artists still don't draw to scale even today! :lol:

So by all of this, how can you prove that dinosaurs lived with humans, or the descendants of dinosaurs lived with humans just as they live with us? Evolution is my answer.

Simply because Evolution lead to Adam and Eve - We are all evolved from some sort of prehistoric mutation.

Well you can't by only looking at art.

However, there are accounts of man living with prehistoric creatures, such as the wooly mammoth, and even today we live with prehistoric beings that have stood the test of time.

Bowfin, gar, crocodiles, turtles and so on and so forth.

Without delving into (macro)evolution, you're free to come to that conclusion and believe that. I am addressing the original poster of this topic, and alternative explanations that are in many peoples minds equally valid, though either or does require an element of belief.

so noah put ever single animal alive, exept dino's, on his boat.

They have recorded 20,000 species of fish, 6,000 species of reptiles, 9,000 birds, 1,000 amphibians, and 15,000 species of mammals. And, although there are a million named species of insects, scientists estimate that there could be another million waiting to be discovered and named!

idontcare how big your boat is, and all that. the sheer number of animals is not gonna happen.

and + the fact that there were seven of each "clean" animal instead of just 2, makes it even less likely.

the numbers get bigger and bigger... add all them up, *other then the fish* multiply by 2 (even tho some where brought on by the sevens) and what do you got? 62,000 animals. on one boat. ya thats realistic and logical.

/edit

also, the reason for the "clean" animals, they were the ones sacrificed. but ofc jews / christians dont do that anymore... clearly logic isnt to dead within religon

orly?




Also look up Aepyornis. They existed until around the 17th century (thanks to us humans) and were about 10x larger than a modern ostrich.

Here's a youth:
