D is for Dinosaur

Jurassic Kingdom: Where Dinosaurs come to life, is an interactive, life-sized replica experience, where you’ll meet over different 30 dinosaurs.

Flying out China’s seemingly endless supply of so-called “feathered dinosaurs” is the latest superlative—or rather the most diminutive—addition to the growing collection: the Eosinopteryx brevipenna. This big name for the smallest member of the illustrious group literally means “red-winged and short-feathered.” The animal was nearly a foot long (30 centimeters), roughly 8 inches shorter than the Late Jurassic Archaeopteryx. 5.

This posed a problem for biblical inerrancy. If the Bible is best understood literally, how can a “day” be an era? Recreating Earth

You see, we know dinosaurs were on the ark with Noah because he was told to take two of every land animal kind with him. And that would include dinosaurs. So, what happened to them? Evolutionists use their imagination in a big way in answering this question. Because of their belief that dinosaurs “ruled” the world for millions of years, and then disappeared millions of years before man allegedly evolved, they have had to come up with all sorts of guesses to explain this “mysterious” disappearance. Kevin Thelwell, Everton’s highly-respected director of football, and Dyche held a meeting with the squad at Everton’s Finch Farm training centre when the players had returned from international duty. It is remarkable that bloggers, including the man who posed the set-up question of Ham during the on-line session, had found a whimsical image drawn by artists that the publisher hired twelve years ago and then faulted Ken for not remembering a saddled dinosaur in the book. Moreover, while Ham is blamed for the image’s depictions, it was actually the book’s artists who had borrowed the style of the popular “ Dinotopia” books and used it as a fun illustration of humans and a saddled dinosaur. Ham, writer of the book’s text, was not the owner of the book, and it was the publisher who had hired the illustrators and who had the final say in the book’s artwork. With Ham’s comment that he doesn't “know where people get the idea that people rode dinosaurs,” he simply did not recall the particular illustration. Ham never writes about saddled dinosaurs nor ever mentions them in his public talks. It is head-scratchingly bizarre that some evolutionists will find the most insignificant things to blog about and blow them out of all proportion so they can take yet another a shot at creationists’ beliefs. The answer is probably not … but, then again? There are some scientists who believe a few dinosaurs may have survived in remote jungles. We are still discovering new species of animals and plants today in areas that have been too difficult to explore until now. Even natives in some countries describe beasts that fit with what might be a dinosaur.We can also be reminded that God, who made all things, including the dinosaurs, is also a judge of His creation. He judged Adam’s rebellion by cursing the world with death. Adam was warned about what would happen if he disobeyed God’s instruction not to eat the fruit of one particular tree. “ But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die” ( Genesis 2:17). If the “facts” are the same, then how can the explanations be so different? The reason is that scientists have only the present—dinosaur fossils exist only in the present—but scientists are trying to connect the fossils in the present to the past. They ask, “What happened in history to bring dinosaurs into existence, wipe them out, and leave many of them fossilized?” 4 Only righteous Noah and his family were saved. They, along with some animals – including, according to the Creation Museum, dinosaurs – were safely housed in the ark that God commanded Noah to build. We do get little glimpses from Scripture, however; in Deuteronomy 8:4, 29:5 and Nehemiah 9:21, we are told that when the Israelites wandered in the desert for 40 years, their clothes and shoes did not wear out, nor did their feet swell. When God upholds things perfectly, wearing out or being hurt in in that He put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now we do not yet see all things put under him.” Man’s relationship with all things changed

it in that light. But we are sinful, fallible human beings, observing a sin-cursed world ( Romans 8:22); and thus, we need to start with divine revelation, the Bible, to begin to understand. in the waters” (Psalm 74:13 KJV), “and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea” (Isaiah 27:1 KJV). Though the word “dinosaur” strictly refers to animals that lived on the land,

Creationists, of course, would not be surprised if someone found a living dinosaur. However, evolutionists would then have to explain why they made dogmatic statements that man and dinosaur never lived at the same time. I suspect they would say something to the effect that this dinosaur somehow survived because it was trapped in a remote area that has not changed for millions of years. You see, no matter what is found, or how embarrassing it is to evolutionists’ ideas, they will always be able to concoct an “answer” because evolution is a belief. It is not science—it is not fact! Other than the huge size of some dinosaurs, the major feature that really distinguishes dinosaurs from other reptiles (such as crocodiles) is the position of their limbs. Dinosaurs had posture that was fully erect, similar to that in mammals. Most other reptiles have limbs in a sprawling position. For instance, compare the way a crocodile “walks” with that of, say, a cow. Dinosaurs would have moved like a cow, with the limbs supporting the body from beneath. Crocodiles “waddle,” as their limbs project sideways from their body. How Big Were Dinosaurs? Taking them through a PowerPoint presentation, he talked about maximum effort being minimum requirement, sweat on the shirt, pride, respect, integrity, honesty, passion. ‘The Royal Dyche’ pub in Burnley (Photo: Getty) found that to clone an animal they need an egg of a living female, since “machinery” in the cytoplasm

The Bible tells us that God created all of the land animals on the sixth day of creation. As dinosaurs were land animals, they must have been made on this day, alongside Adam and Eve, who were also created on Day Six ( Genesis 1:24–31). If God designed and created dinosaurs, they would have been fully functional, designed to do what they were created for, and would have been 100% dinosaur. This fits exactly with the evidence from the fossil record. In Genesis 1:21 (NAS), the Bible says, “ And God created the great sea monsters and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after M. Crichton, The Lost World, Ballantine Books, New York, 1995, 122. “Dinosaurs were mostly small .... People always think they were huge, but the average dinosaur was the size of a sheep or a small pony.” According to Horner and Lessem, The Complete T. Rex, 1993, 124: “Most dinosaurs were smaller than bulls.” Compare these statements with T. L. Clarey and W. L. Tompkins in “ Determining Average Dinosaur Size Using the Most Recent Comprehensive Body Mass Data Set” who find that “the median mass of a dinosaur is determined to be 630 kg (1389 lb), or the size of an American bison.” Well, they likely died out for the same reasons creatures are going extinct today: human activity, climate change, habitat loss, and more. The world after the global flood was a different place!

Adam and Eve did better on their second assignment, though. Eve gave birth to two sons, Cain and Abel, and, according to the Creation Museum, to a daughter who later became Cain’s wife. In 1961 Bible scholar John Whitcomb Jr. and engineer Henry Morris came to the rescue with their book, “ The Genesis Flood.” Borrowing heavily from the Seventh-day Adventist George McCready Price – who had spent decades defending his own faith’s belief that God created Earth in six days – Morris and Whitcomb argued that it was Noah’s flood that created Earth’s layers.
