Where's your proof that the Europeans and Chinese were describing dinosaurs? Give us some evidence for human/dinosaur co-temporality that doesn't come from the Bible (even though I don't think there's any evidence there either).Jack_Racz said:A picture isn't proof.
iirc the chinese dragon is part (breathe in) snake,tiger,salmon,cameland some other stuff. perhaps it is one of the original Kinds on the ark, from which all modern day organisms got their variety.Frumious Bandersnatch said:http://www.chinapage.com/images/dragon.jpg
Doesn't look much like a dinosaur to me. More like crossing crocodiles, snakes and bats. I would guess that a 20 foot salt water croc would seem a lot like a dragon to people with only bows and arrows and spears as weapons.
The frumious Bandersnatch
Fossils do not form outside a flood senario, they can only be formed under large amounts of soil and water with great presure. and each of these must happen rappidly.artybloke said:Then where are the dinosaur fossils from after the KT incident?
As for dragons etc, there are mythical animals in all cultures. Have you some evidence that a chimeara (1/3 lion, 1/3 goat, 1/3 serpent) ever existed?
Could someone please inform me what is wrong with mythology anyway, and why it isn't (in a metaphorical sense) true?
There are other ways that fossil can form and great pressure is certainly not required but that is not the topic of this thread. You do know that most YECs claim that some portion of the fossil record is post-flood don't you? Or do you? I think it is a little disengenious to claim that the fossil record couldn't have formed over hundreds of millions of years without a worldwide flood but that a significant portion of it formed in the few thousand years since the worldwide flood, though of course no YEC can seem to tell us exactly which deposits are flood deposits.Robert423 said:Fossils do not form outside a flood senario, they can only be formed under large amounts of soil and water with great presure. and each of these must happen rappidly.
That is not correct. For a fossil to form the creature must be buried soon after death. This can be in any manner, sand storm, landslide, sinking in mud...Robert423 said:Fossils do not form outside a flood senario, they can only be formed under large amounts of soil and water with great presure. and each of these must happen rappidly.
Obviously you don't understand what I meant. I meant that I can find pictures that prove my side as well.Ishmael Borg said:Where's your proof that the Europeans and Chinese were describing dinosaurs?

I don't know about anyone else, but I'd like to see the pictures that you are referring to.Jack_Racz said:I meant that I can find pictures that prove my side as well.
You're half right. Dinosaurs did exist probably millions of years ago.Jet Black said:there was no Global flood, Dinosaurs went extinct millions of years ago, so there is no problem there.
Any takers that we'll soon have Kent Hovind pics being posted as 'proof'? You know those grainy, hard to make out, fake looking pictures of 'dinosaurs'?Light in the Darkness said:I don't know about anyone else, but I'd like to see the pictures that you are referring to.
Both of your examples are incorrect. Modern coelocanths and crocodiles are not even of the same species as the fossil specimens from millions of years ago. Evolution has occurred in both examples to arrive at the modern species.The Lord is my banner said:Just to throw in a new thought to the mix - we still have some "dinosaurs" on the planet! The coelocanth (fish) was thought to have become extinct millions of years ago, then they found living specimens, identical to the fossils - no evolution had occured. The crocodile is often referred to in nature programmes as a "living example of a prehistoric creature." No evolution there then. Any changes we see are minor variations within kinds of organisms, or degeneration due to mutations, ie. mistakes and weaknesses - not improvements. No "missing links" have ever been found which stood up to further scrutiny.
I like his point though. Where's the photos of dinosaur bones (Not fossils, bones). Anything younger then 6000 years seems to leave bones. Fine, I want dino bones.Jack_Racz said:You sir, need to grow up.
