Okay, that's okay, we all do that from time to time. I would just hope that you try to debate the things you are saying a little more in depth. It's interesting stuff and you'll learn a lot from it. It'll prevent you from doing that in the future.

No I said the word 'dragon' is not in the bible. And I was asking why you decide that Genesis is literal?

I'm sorry, but that's just hogwash, and you know it. There are scientists trying to disprove everything, what if they could proof that the geological collum is false? Man they'd be awarded the nobel prize.

I'm sure they've found human and dinosaur bones in the same layers, it just doesn;t make it to published articles.
Proof it that dinosaur bones are found in the same layers as human bones without any exteriour helpings from outside forces.

Put up or shut up. I can make baseless claims as well for instance about the bible, but I am not going to say stuff that aren't backed up by evidence. I suggest you do the same, we are after all still in the scientifical forum.

It makes you look like a post and run-poster. Someone who is not actually intresting to listen to, because he/she is just going to run away again. I suggest you stick around in your own threads and you might actually learn some thing (gasp).

Keep in mind that humans and dinosaurs lived in different regions as well!
keep in mind that humans and dinos never co-exsisted in the first place.

Furthermore, creationism is false, as microevolution is true, and unless a mystical barrier exists, microevolution x millions of years = macroevolution

A mystical barrier does not exist

The end

Ughhhhh...

I wish some other creationists would help me. The flood becomes harder and harder to support when you get more information. I don't know if you're lying about the fossils in chalk, but I have no idea how to explain that.
