Where are the dinosaurs?

Why did the dinosaurs go extinct?

Best idea is a large asteroid impact.

More info on Stan:


Stan the Tyrannosaurus rex

The skeleton of Stan the Tyrannosaurus rex (T.rex) was excavated by the Black Hills Institute in 1992, after its discovery by an amateur palaeontologist, Stan Sacrison. The fossil remains were found in an outcrop of Badlands (rough terrain) near Buffalo (South Dakota) in the USA. The excavation required the removal of the rock above the specimen, called overburden, with the help of a Bobcat (a small earth moving machine), a jackhammer, picks and shovels. Knives, scribes and brushes were used to expose the fossil bones and teeth, while glues and other chemicals were applied to stabilise and preserve the surface of the fossils. Before removal of the fossils, each one was drawn on a 'map' using a grid set over each section of the site. The fossils were then covered with aluminium foil and encased in a field jacket, layered burlap (sack-cloth) and plaster, so they could be moved without breakage. All excavated material was then transported to the lab for specialised cleaning, called preparation.

Such a shame the flood never happened. Life would of been easier for fossil hunters.

It is because of the Flood there are so many fossils.

The Flood...mainly
Except that there were 2 (or 7) of each "kind" on your hypothetical ark. So, either you are claiming the bible is wrong (the dyno's didn't make onto the ark), or tney went extinct immeditaly after your hypothetical flood.
But that begs the quuestion why the dyno's went extinct and not the other animals.

NASCAR and YEC - not a shocking combo. Along with the soon to be coachless Saints.

Except they are not sorted in any manner as you would expect from a Noachian Deluge flood.

I liked fairy tales as a kid as well, but you aren't supposed to still believe them as an adult.

Earnhardt is dead. Junior is a great example of nepotism in action. So much theory and overwhelming evidence for it.

Good luck with Mrs. Doubtfire as your coach.

u believe in a unprovable theory of evolution...a man-made religion is still a religion and not science.

A asteroid, really? that's more believable than a worldwide flood, or is it the fact that it leaves God out that makes it more believable.

Science is not anti-God, and when it is..it becomes its own religion or worldview and no longer can be labeled as science.

Why are you asking these one line questions?

They give the impression that you're uninterested in the answers.
It is - in my opinion - no so much the fact that his answers are one line that shows his lack of interest, but the fact that he hasn't reacted to any given answer. Joey asks a (one line) question, get an answer, drops it and asks a new one.
