So, from this one ambiguous sculpture, you're positing the existence of a whole ecology of dinosaurs, living contemporary with humans, which left absolutely no fossil evidence?
Seems... kinda unlikely, doesn't it?

So, from this one ambiguous sculpture, you're positing the existence of a whole ecology of dinosaurs, living contemporary with humans, which left absolutely no fossil evidence?Not really no. Okay lets talk about the snout and tail:
You say:
- the snout is more consistent with a Sumatran rhino - I agree
- the ears are more consistent with a Sumatran rhino - I agree
- the tail is more consistent with a Sumatran rhino - I disagree, it's more like a stegosaurus'.

The way snow compacts into ice cores is fairly well understood and empirically demonstrated. It's not a matter of "what one believes"https://www.icr.org/article/8026
Thing is it comes down to what one believes. The Resurrection is the only proof we have of God and Jesus' existence.
Try a scientific source when making claims about scientific subjects.

'fairly well' ?The way snow compacts into ice cores is fairly well understood and empirically demonstrated. It's not a matter of "what one believes"
It's pointless and unfruitful exercise to try and argue this.Try a scientific source when making claims about scientific subjects.
No, it comes down to the actual evidence, which is independend of ones beliefs.
Huh? That sounds like a pretty random comment to inject into this conversation.

Once again, even if it was a carving of a stegosaurus, it wouldn't prove that dinosaurs lived at the same time as humans.I disagree, it's more like a stegosaurus'.
How so? btw i never said it was a stegosaurus .Once again, even if it was a carving of a stegosaurus, it wouldn't prove that dinosaurs lived at the same time as humans.
Yes He did;Jesus never said anything of the kind.

So... what are you saying here?Not really no. Okay lets talk about the snout and tail:

i haven't formed a conclusive opinion on the carving.So... what are you saying here?
The scriptures also tell us Jesus is a sheep. Or is it possible a bald literalist reading of the Scriptures is not the best way to interpret them?Yes He did;
John 10:25
“The Scriptures cannot be discredited”.
All the dates add up to 5987 years.
How so?
Consider an archeologist 1000 years from now, after our society completely collapsed and was rebuild, finding a poster of Jurassic Park, The Movie, but only of the part depicting a human fighting a T-rex. So no text, directors, studio labels, etc. Just what looks like a photograph of a human fighting a T-rex.
That wouldn't prove humans lived together with T-Rex, now, wouldn't it?
So even if this thing is a stegasaur... why would this be any different?
We know about the creature by finding remains of it, and we don't live at the same time as it.
Why couldn't they know about the creature in the same way?
You must be quoting from a different Bible than the one regular Christians use.John 10:25
“The Scriptures cannot be discredited”.
So you are not a follower of Archbishop Ussher, I see.All the dates add up to 5987 years.
How do we know what they looked like? We've never seen a living one either. Do you think nobody knew about dinosaur fossils until you came along?But how would the carver know what a dinosaur looked like, stegosaurus or otherwise?
Oops typo: John 10:35You must be quoting from a different Bible than the one regular Christians use.
John 10:25
"Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me."
So you are not a follower of Archbishop Ussher, I see.
