If God created all sea, air, and land creatures on the fifth and sixth days of creation, with humans being created on the sixth day also, then yes, humans and dinosaurs coexisted at one point in history. I say this because the penalty for eating the forbidden fruit in the garden was death. Romans 5 says that "Just as sin entered the world through one man and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned." My reading of Romans 8:19-25 indicates that the death that occurred in men after the fall also fell upon all of creation. All of creation was subjected to frustration as a result of Adam. I don't believe Scripture teaches death before the Fall, if you know verses that teach this, please let me know.
As long as men and dinosaurs coexisted, wouldn't there be evidence of their coexistence?
Let's take a look at one example. The Lindworm! The Lindworm is found within Eurpoean mythology.
Historically, Marco Polo, reported seeing Lindworms in Central Asia. Here's the quote from Marco Polo:
There is a lot more present on the Lindworm at the following sites:
http://www.monstropedia.org/index.php?title=Lindworm
http://www.book-of-thoth.com/thebook/index.php/Lindworm
http://dragonsinn.net/fict-lindworm.htm
These sites aren't well cited, but I'm sure that if you search for the specific details within these sites you will be able to find historical citations. At least I posted the Marco Polo quote.
Is the Lindwurm evidence of dinosaurs existing with humans? What do you think?

Were Lindworms real? Would they classify as dinosaurs today? |
Historically, Marco Polo, reported seeing Lindworms in Central Asia. Here's the quote from Marco Polo:
.. snakes and great serpents of such vast size as to strike fear into those who see them, and so hideous that the very account of them must excite the wonder of those to hear it. ... You may be assured that some of them are ten paces in length; some are more and some less. And in bulk they are equal to a great cask, for the bigger ones are about ten palms in girth. They have two forelegs near the head, but for foot nothing but a claw like the claw of a hawk or that of a lion. The head is very big, and the eyes are bigger than a great loaf of bread. The mouth is large enough to swallow a man whole, and is garnished with great [pointed] teeth. And in short they are so fierce-looking and so hideously ugly, that every man and beast must stand in fear and trembling of them. There are also smaller ones, such as of eight paces long, and of five, and of one pace only. (The Travels of Marco Polo, Ch. XLIX)To read the entre chapter from The Travels of Marco Polo, click here. He goes into detail on how they are caught and how they are very valuable, because they are used in making a medicine - very much a part of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Ugh! I'd like to think that at least some of your readers are embarrassed by this content. Again, this is not apologetics at all but pure, unadulterated dogma. I stop by this site every now and then to see if you've published anything of any real empirical substance and I've seen not one bit of real evidence that would sway a reasonable person to your beliefs.
ReplyDeleteIf you would like to get some scientific and historical evidence that points to the existence of God and Gods identity.
ReplyDeleteYou are right on about dinosaurs however. The creature that even come close to a dinosaur that anyone ever recorded before the 1900s was the Leviathan, Behemoth, and dragons. Meek Godmanseed wrote a book called "Master Science" that talks about the same things that you do. Check it out at http://www.masterscience.webs.com I'm sure you will like it.
