Hello everyone. I am 12 years old and I have been a christian my whole life. I was wondering what yall thought about dinosours.. I have read in my bible and God made everything within seven days, without mentioning dinosours. Also when we think of dinosours we think they roamed the land without any other animals, just dinosours. Also also, Aligators are believed to be of been a dinosour but why didn't they get extinct too then???

This is very confusing.... I dont not believe they were real. But I don't believe...?:confused I know us as norrmal humans can't really know the answer. But I would much apprectate if everyoene gave their opinion on the topic.

Thanks lots,

The Bible is not an explanation of the total history of the world. It is a book of stories told by people who lived in that time. So just because the Bible doesn't mention dinosaurs doesn't mean they didn't exist but instead just believe what the Bible states about what Jesus did and how he saved us all. The Bible should be used as a study guide on how to live. I've read the other answers from other users that responded to this comment and all I can say is may God bless them for not accepting Jesus as their savior.

The only way to live is as a Christian, and just for some extra information, there are different versions of the Bible because man has taken it and focused on more of what they believe. If you ask a Baptist and a Catholic what any one part of the Bible means, you may get two answers, but that is because those 2 people have different understandings of what it meant to them. Who are we to judge what the Bible says. I say live your life as Christ intended and He will take care of the rest.

God Bless!

I have put together my own theory for how dinosaurs came to exist, its pretty simple without all the details i have to put into it but basically god created heavens and earth in 7 days, the 1st day did not have sun or moons or stars and the like so there was no time frame of 24 hours that first day so that day could have been billions apun billions of years instead of 24 hours thus giving rise to evolution and dinos etc... iv theorized how scientific facts and god can both be true but this is just one of my theories as to how evolution and dinos could have existed.

Note. this is a personal theory, could or could not be possible judge for yourself do not attack me with your beliefs.

the word dinosaur wans't invented in bible times, but in the bible it describes a creature with a long neck, long tail, and no fur. i forgot the exact scipture but i know its in there. the bible also mentions dragons, witch probably what they thought dinosaurs were.
i suggest watching "doctor dino" he's a creationnist who travels teaching kids the truth about dinosaurs he has tons of proof, go to your church and ask about him, they should no where to get some DVDs of him. he visited our church once it was REEALLLY coool

oh i forgot to mention your only 12, please do not just assume that because its not neccessarily written in the bible and that the people near you do not believe in evolution that you should not.

the very fact of a semen and egg creating a human is evolution right there. so before you say "I DO/DO NOT BELIEVE IN EVOLUTION and rather choose to be a close minded person."

Try slowing down on your choice and look at it deeper than a web forum.

Dinosaur fossils have been found pretty much everywhere around the world, so it's very unlikely that they just lived someplace apart from humans.

I am also 12, and also confused about that topic! Scientists have dicovered many fossils of prehistoric animals living long ago! But I have a question too: What came first dinosaurs or god? The bible didn't mention God creating dinosaurs, but God created everything...so no one really knows! It's the same as the question: What came first, the chicken or the egg? People don't know this answer yet, but they are always still looking to figure it out!

Its not from me but i agree with the statement:

The answer is that the chicken came before the egg. That's because if the chicken was not here, the egg would never have hatched. The chicken got out as in an 'evolution chain' and started to lay eggs.
