interesting thought....

[stillerfan]

i was wondering....if everything that the Bible says it's true (which i believe it is), when where did the dinosaurs come from????

 

[Greg the byzantine]

Well when God created the animals
"then God commanded "let the animal life: domestic and wild, large and small"-
and it was done" (gen 1:24) he probably created dinosaurs.
They do fit under the category of animal life large and small.

 

[Moros]

They came from God, just like everything else.

I have often wanted to include a T-Rex or a Brontosaurus in the icon of The Creation of the Animals or in Adam Naming the Animals but am affraid the Bishops would frown upon my doing so.

Why?

There are several people who could give you a good "scientific" answer. One man who does a great job of being scientific and biblical is Dr. Ken Hamm. He runs an organization devoted specifically to this called Answers In Genesis. He is an Australian, who now resides here in the United States.

Guys!! What are you thinking!! Dinosaurs come from museums!

They recently found a fossil of a dog-like mammal that had dino meat in its belly which is somewhat of a shock because it's always been accepted that the largest mammals alive when dinos ruled the earth were small, timid creatures that would never dare jump one of the big lizards. Guess they underestimated the size (and appetite) of warm blooded furballs.

Could it be possible that the dog was a scavenger and didn't attack dinosaurs but just ate off dead ones?

It's very possible. Maybe after they have studied the fossils more, they will be able to determine if the mammal was indeed a predator or merely a scavenger. It's a very exciting find, regardless of how the little guy got in there.

Why?

For the sheer fun of it! There is nothing in the Bible that says God did not make the dinosaurs, is there?

I think, if I remember correctly, the dome of St. Paraskevi in greenlawn New York has a dome of the creation and there are dinosaurs in it.

Check out this website:

Dr. Hovind is a scientist that has devoted his life to teaching that the bible is true and that science supports it. He has some interesting information about dinosaurs in the bible and is a great resource in teaching kids about creation.

Good, I am glad to know I won't be upsetting any bishops when I decide to add a T-Rex or Brontosaurus to the Icon of the Creation of the Animals when I get arround to writing one. A friend of mine who is a very well known iconographer in the Cleveland area has mentioned the idea of doing the same thing.
