1200 pounds? So 2 bones that weighed 600 lbs? Oh ok.
You know what? Let's just believe everything they say and not question or think about any of it. Nizar would most likely worship baal for more $$$ funding, let's just believe him already OK? That's what the bible said about falsely so called science [sarcasm].
More like, fail at the Bible.
Hello McFly? The bones that were turned into fragments weren't the ones used to determine this new data.You must've missed my post about 2 posts above. I already made my point calling the article a damn fraud. They found a couple of bone fragments, and computer generated what the animal looked like out of those bone fragments (kent hovind: a few bones bones in the dirt..in fact, in most cases...1 or 2 bones)

This is awful pseudo science.
So the WHOLE thing was reconstructed from fragments of bones? This not science!
To put it in Kent Hovind's words: They found pieces of bones in the dirt and "guessed" what the entire animal would look like. That is not science.
Which argument is it countering?
BTW, I do agree that Leviathan does seem to refer to an actual creature in Psalm 104.
Debate on what matters? Spinos breathing fire? No, there is absolutely zero debate on that. They didn't breath fire. Period. Nor did they live around the time that your verse was written.I don't think fire was in the article.
I think it's obvious, Brigid, that there's debate on these matters.

Maybe it was something like this?
Dragons: Fire-Breathing Dragons Explained : Video : Animal Planet
Or maybe it's more like something like this?

The problem is that if you go down this road, you get into a bit of a snarl. If all the instances of Leviathan in the Bible describe an actual creature that existed as part of the animal kingdom, you end up with a beast that had:
And that:
- A tongue
- A nose
- A jaw
- A hide
- Limbs
- A double coat of armor
- Fearsome teeth ringing its mouth
- Airtight rows of shields on its back
- A snout that snorted flashes of light
- A mouth that breathed fire and streams of sparks
- Nostrils that exhaled smoke
- An exterior that was impervious to swords, spears, darts, javelins, arrows, sling stones, and clubs, whether of bronze or iron.
- A jagged underside
- More than one head
- Was a serpent
- Coiled
- Glided
- Frolicked (in the autumn mist?)
- Lived in the sea
- Looked down upon the haughty
No matter how hard you try to single out an animal, whether modern or extinct, you are going to lack one or more of these traits. The descriptions are too fantastical.
Too fantastical? It's the Bible. It talks about great red dragons and mighty angels and people riding flying horses carrying swords of fire.
You forgot talking snakes and donkeys. So maybe, just maybe those are some of the reasons why half the people in this planet don't believe in the Bible, and the vast majority of the people who do believe in the Bible don't believe those stories are literal.
I didn't forget.
"Don't let'em tell you don't believe in talking snakes, only to persuade you that we came from talking apes" - Lavoisier.
Also, I'm wary of any time you mention what the "vast majority" of Christians believe.
Whoever told you or implied that we "came from talking apes" lied to you. Get over it and don't repeat the lie.
Why would you? It doesn't look like you care about what the majority thinks. The majority of Christians (Catholics and moderate evangelicals) do accept evolution, that is a fact.
Hi CabVet, welcome to the club. The only entrance requirement is that Blessedj01 can't refute your criticism.Seems like you woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. Welcome to ignore.
