Dinosaurs showed up 250 million years ago, at the beginning of the Mesazoic Period. They evolved from what's called lizard-like reptiles or lizard-hipped reptiles. Warm-blooded, the competitions between the species were tough, so they compensated by evolving extreme bodies. There were giants, and there were animals smaller than the common hen. There were those who were just plain ugly and those with elaborate headgear. They began evolving into birds halfway through their reign. They grew feathers and developed flight. Again, being warmblooded, their designs quickly became elaborate in the new world after the mass extinction.

sorry guy, shoulda been more specific, i meant for it to be explained in relation to christianity, since they don't appear in the bible

Since dinosaurs evolved, and went extinct before the evolution of humanity, and the Biblical narrative, they don't appear in the Bible. They aren't relevant. Why?

I believe that God created dinosaurs right along with the rest of the animals during the six days of creation. I believe that sometime after the flood the dinosaurs died out especially due to changes in climate that eventually occurred.

I'm not much of a scientist but I believe the reptiles of today are descendants of dinosaurs. I'm not able to provide you with answers to a whole lot of specific questions. But this is what I believe.

Well the best I can tell you is that Jehovah's withnesses believe god created dinosaurs to trim down all the plants he made before so that it earth would be habital for humans, he proceeded to kill them all after they outlived their usefulness.

Incedently yes this means the T-rex had his massive jaws so he could eat trees. Since they also believe nobody ate meat before the fall.

Obviously not. You do know the world is ~4.5 billion years old and Dinosaurs predate humanity by millions of years, right?

You're not fighting fair! All Christians must have a simplistic and literal interpretation of the scriptures. (Second week of Sunday school understanding of God would be just fine.) Therefore the fact that Jesus never spoke about dinosaurs, proves that all of Christianity and its teachings are false. Stop being so rational, you'll give all Christians a bad name. ;)

Nice to meet you, GU -- :wave: -- welcome to CF!
Explain dinosaurs
Dinosaurs were created on the 6th day of the creation week, along with the other beasts of the field; in fact, it was a dinosaur (dragon) that spoke to Eve on that fateful day in the Garden.

Later in the Scriptures, we see animals mentioned that are not found on any clipboards today, such as the satyr, the unicorn, behemoth and leviathan; and behemoth even has a navel to throw a monkey-wrench into evolutionary philosophy, which says dinosaurs don't.

We believe the dinosaurs died out after the Flood, when a new [polar] climatology was introduced to the earth's biosphere.

God don't like dinosaurs.
I think I'll disagree.

Job 40:15 Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.

Job 40:19a He is the chief of the ways of God:

Psalm 92:10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
