That's not a Sumatran Rhino.

THIS is a Sumatran Rhino"

This is a slightly different angle of the claimed Stegosaurus carving showing the details f the head:

P1030144.jpg


Given the horns and lack of tail spikes. It looks pretty similar to me.

And as to the "plates" running down the back, here's another carving on the same temple with similar "plates" around the head.

What animal is that exactly?

Nope the head and tail are both wrong if it is supposed to be a Stegosaurus. If it is a Sumatran Rhino, only the claimed "plates" are wrong.

So based on major features alone, the Sumatran Rhino is a closer fit; one major difference vs. two.

That's a better picture and reasoning. I think the other animal looks monkey like to me .

No, it is an assumption and unicorns do not exist, no matter what the Bible says. God's creation has more validity over the Bible.

I said perhaps and put a '?' at the end of my suggestion. In order for an assumption to be made, a statement must be put forward not a question.

And the Bible has more validity than God's creation:

Matthew 24:35
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

An assumption does not have to be a definitive statement.

Unfortunately the lack of serious evidence to support your assertions does render your extensive post nonsense. I applaud you for seeking to aid the OP in his quest. However, I note that sincerity and accuracy are not the same thing.

Sorry, I'm not about to take a lecture on accuracy from a proponent of evolution. It's kind of like being lectured about child safety from an abortion doctor.

And I don't get my science education from creationists.

P.S. My aunt is a doctor who performs abortions. She also has 2 children and she is an excellent mother.

You don't get education from evolutionist either.

You get education from scientists. And scientists teach evolution because it's the best evidenced scientific theory that explains the diversity of life.

You don't like admitting when you wrong do you :)

I'm not wrong though. You made the assumption that it was an unknown dinosaur. Even if you phrase it as a question, if you make a statement which has no grounding, then it's still an assumption.

What this boils down to is that the Bible doesn't say man lived with dinosaurs and there is no scientific evidence for it either, but it must be true if the Creationist interpretation of Genesis is correct. Therefore it is true, because the alternative is unthinkable.

It's the same kind of reasoning that allows Creationist to assert that the Fountains of the Deep erupted with such force during the Flood as to blow chunks of the Earth into space to form the Asteroid Belt. It doesn't say so in the Bible, but if you deny it you're calling Christ a liar.

So because the conclusion that man lived with dinosaurs is a truth with the authority of divine revelation, it doesn't matter if the evidence presented to the rest of us is flimsy or fabricated.
