"If God created EVERYTHING..."

..why is there no mention of Dinosaurs in the story of creation, or in the whole Bible for that matter?

There is supposedly reference to a dinosaur. It's referred to as 'a behemoth' though.

Surely the better question would be "Why do people think that the Bible is real but not 1984?" or another wacky piece of fiction.

Must you be trying to constantly disprove it? :D

Two replies.

One: Yes, they are referred to in the Bible.

Two: It's not wacky fiction, which is why we believe it's real.

Blunt, but true. {:)

The bible reckons that dinosaurs died in the 40 day flood of Noah's Ark.

Indeed.
It's actually the greatest business ploy the world has ever seen.
Who knew a book with a knocked up *ahem* "virgin", resurrections, Arks and Angels would be a best seller for over two thousand years?
Genius.

Uh, last I checked the fiery pits of hell full of demons and a floaty fairy land of love and milk and honey was pretty damn wacky.

And the whole 'virgin' thing is a mistranslation of 'young woman', so that argument's shot.

behemoth'

wasnt that a robot from robot wars

Behemoth general means something BIG.

i.e a dinousaur like a Brachiosaurus.


Not one of them scabby little muttling things....

Nicely said Ant. Nicely said.

*points to post with regards to wacky fiction*

90% of the Bible miracles, from the snake to cane trick to parting the red sea to the plagues have been explained. Face it guys, the Bible is not for real.
