Telesphorus said:The existence of dinosaurs and other fossils isn't in doubt. The stones around here are full of marine fossils. The only real question is to how old they are.
Marine fossils aren't proof of dinosaurs.
Look, there are two ways this can work. Either the dino thing is a big hoax, or else, between the time of Adam and Eve and Abraham, or even after Abraham, there were some species of big lizards that are now extinct, dragons, basilisks, etc. If we have Komodo dragons now, I don't see what's improbable about even bigger species of lizards running around.
The "Land Before Time" fantasy as portrayed, with "cavemen" running around throwing torches at dinosaurs, is ridiculous, however, and yet this is presented by so many scientists as an accurate presentation of what the Earth was once like. Hence, my faith in them is low. Look how many of these "scientists" went along with global warming. We live in an age that has PROVEN that huge hoaxes are real.
I hesitate to say there were never any dinosaurs at all, but just look at how many hoaxes there have been with people putting together skeletons out of whale bones and whatnot and then calling it a dinosaur and selling it to museums. How is it that it wasn't until so recently that all these lizard bones were discovered, and that they can reconstruct these supposed creatures with perfect accuracy?
Let's say you find a dinosaur femur. What are the chances that you would then find enough of the rest of the same animal's bones to put it back together, or how would you match your bone with the bones of others? It seems to me the chances of being able to reconstruct a real dinosaur, if they existed, would be infinitesimal before the last twenty or thirty years with their huge computer databases. Yet these things were reconstructed in the 19th century. Something is fishy, whether or not big lizards once existed.
