The Bible pwns Evolution with Cryptozoology

[AV1611VET]

Since none actually existed, I contend that they do not. Besides, unicorns and dragons are just modern creatures with an artistic flourish (notwithstanding the fact that the Bible is somewhat silent on what these creatures actually are).

Speaking for the unicorn:

Nu 23:22 God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn.

Job 39:9 Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?

Job 39:10 Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?

The unicorn was a free-spirited, extremely strong beast of the field; used mainly for plowing.

The farmer who owned one, and could tame it, could plow his field in a fraction of a time than a farmer who had mules, and even a farmer who had oxen.

Your contention that none actually existed is, to me, just an ignorant remark.

So, what happened to these creatures?

Are they still roaming out there somewhere?

All gone.

 

[Freodin]

And God had cleaned up their remains, I´m sure...

 

[AV1611VET]

And God had cleaned up their remains, I´m sure...

Why?

These creatures may have only existed for a very short period of time, and trying to find them would be like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

 

[Frumious Bandersnatch]

Actually, the Genesis 3 serpent, in my opinion, was a dragon.

I guess that explains why he could talk.

 

[SithDoughnut]

Those animals do not exist. Problem solved.

 

[AV1611VET]

Those animals do not exist. Problem solved.

Like the coelacanth?

Coelacanths appeared about 350 million years ago and were thought to have become extinct 80 million years ago until one was caught in 1938 near the southern coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean. A second species was discovered living near Indonesia in 1998.

 

[HasturX]

Nope -- science doesn't require proof; and even if it did, that's not my calling.

It does however require evidence.

And you have none.

 

[HasturX]

Like the coelacanth?

We had evidence that the coelacanth before we found a living one.

Not so for your list of creatures.

And you have none.

Would it matter if I did? you're wanting proof, remember?

 

[AV1611VET]

Not so for your list of creatures.

Then get some, if it's that critical to you.

And when you do, keep it to yourself -- I'm really not interested.

Thank you cfy, but the Melipona Bee isn't in the Bible.

I'm dealing with things in the Bible that no one -- as yet -- has never seen, and thus must be taken on faith.

Okay, bro, thank you.

I don't think they fit the Bible's description, though.

Nu 23:22 God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn.

Job 39:9 Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib?

Job 39:10 Canst thou bind the unicorn with his band in the furrow? or will he harrow the valleys after thee?

 

[JustMeSee]

I contend that these animals are problematic for evolutionists.

You have failed to explain how these animals are problematic for evolutionists.

Can you show me someone with a "Heart of stone"

Do "kisses sweeter than wine" exist ?

** Sometimes there are explainations to things. If one does not bother to look for them they will never find them. Could be a mistranslation etc..

 

[AV1611VET]

You have failed to explain how these animals are problematic for evolutionists.

I don't intend too, either.

I assume they know themselves, why.

 

[Agonaces of Susa]

Why would we destroy the evidence?

Because any time evidence is rediscovered confirming the historical facts in the Bible a conspiracy arises to destroy and distort the physical evidence.

It's not like fire-breathing dragons are an evolutionary nightmare.

All of the historical facts in the Bible are evolutionary nightmares.

Stick a pair of wings on that, and you've got yourself a dragon.

I agree. Pterosaurs are dragons.
