I wish this cartoon at least accurately represented my views. Scientists today are backing off their silly claim that an asteroid killed the Dinosaurs. The fossil record says they were buried in mud laid down by water all over the earth. That is why you can find hundreds of dinosaur footprints fossilized at one place. Why do you think all those dinosuars were gathered together? It was because they were going to higher ground as the flood waters came in.
Why weren't any on the Ark?
Who said they weren't on the ark?
Then where are they?
Dinosaurs in the Bible Job 40:15 KJV Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. 16 Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. 17 He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. 18 His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron. 19 He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him. 20 Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play. 21 He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens. 22 The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about. 23 Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth. 24 He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.
Dinosaurs were hatched from eggs. They didn't have navels on their bellies. Anyway, these passages from Job and the ones which precede it are metaphors for how faith is built. The passage that you cite is a metaphor FOR the strength of faith. You're welcome.
Why do you assume that all dinosuars layed eggs? What do you base that on? No it is not a metaphor. It is a description of a real creature by people what were there.
I based it upon paying attention in biology when the reproductive cycles of various species of life were discussed.
You had dinosaurs with their insides intact? If you learned that way back when. There should be some article on the web that shows the insides of a dinosaur? And to survive intact billions of years. Amazing.
You're babbling. "Insides" can be determined from skeletal remains. Again something you would have learned had you paid attention in biology.
Some species of chameleon lizards lay eggs. Others give live birth. Garter snakes lay eggs. Rat snakes give live birth. So explain how you could look at the skeletal structure (or anybody else, for that matter) and know from just that which lay eggs and which give live, yee of of infinite biological wisdom.
Please Paddy...as if I wouldn't know what an ovoviviparous reptile was.
This animal lays eggs. And how would we know that from this skeleton?
It doesn't "lay" eggs.
COMMENT REMOVED DUE TO PLAGARISM
The spiney anteater moves a fertilzed "egg" into a pouch. The mating process is actually closer to a reptile than a mammal.

See, war, the problem is that we're ALL related. Repeat. ALL RELATED. the fact that we have a 'word for 'nature' shows how off the track we are. That 'homo rapiens' think that 'we're APART from 'nature' is what's causing all of the problems. Because nothing that we know is as perfect/efficient(see 2nd Law of Thermodynamics;} as the 'operation' of this planet. And we only show our Ignorance and how fast we move to being extinct rather than extant, by claiming to know better. W/in 5 years, probably this winter, the human pop stabilizes. The implications: 1) at least 20 million 'removed'. 2) quickly followed by 75 million (the # of humans 'added' per year. 3) then every year after, at least another 75 million, showing 'stabilization after Asymptosis of a Leptokurtic aberration due to 'excess energy'(that would be 120 years of 50:1 EROEI) no longer available in quantity/EROEI. 4)then Non Linear Event (which could supercede any/all the above taking out 2 billion. 5) 800 million humans on the planet by 2060. Optimistic. With a gradual decline to 400 million by 2150. The Deepwater Horizon was/is the Dragon King. We won't have any more warnings. Evolution says time's up. And thanx for pulling out all of those hydrocarbons and cutting down all of the Ancient Forests. See ya. 8D
