Maybe an Asteroid Didn't Kill the Dinosaurs

The best theory I’ve heard so far was that the earth’s gravity was less then and as it increased the dinosaurs could no longer handle it. As wacky as that sounds it’s far less so than this one or latest theory that claims it was volcanoes that did them in.

[SERKIT]

They were taxed into extinction by the obamaraptor, the reidosaur, and the flying pelosidactyl.

“Global flood.”

Noah's flood is what I think it was. At the time Man took up only a small part of the planet. There was plenty left for Dinosaurs to roam, on continents yet to be touched by human footprints.

I’m one of those crazy conservative nut jobs that believes a lot of them died in the flood and the remainder were killed off as humans repopulated...what would give the most meat? Dinosaurs..one of God’s commandments after the flood was to eat them there hamburgers (meat..for the first time)...also If you believe in a literal Noah and Ark then noah certainly wouldn’t take the biggest dinos on board he’d take babies...and yes, there is evidence of dinosaur prints with human fossilized prints...and an obscure and often hidden story of a freshly mounted dinosaur in Italy in the 1560’s...but then again, I could just be a whacko

[wheresmycheckbarry?]

nope..you take babies..not full grown..that’s why the ark is fully plausible...you would take babies of each kind..not full grown

[WorkingClassFilth]

Uh, beg to differ, but catastrophism used to be the province of kooks and the insane as far as ‘science’ was concerned. In those days, uniformitarianism ruled and the dinosaurs all died out because of slow changes in the environment. That wasn’t too long ago. Velikovsky would be honored by the reactionary resistance to his long ago tendered theory.

[SuperLuminal]

I was born 5 years after the asteroid impact and can testify to the accelerated emigration of illegal dinos into the northern part of the continent all trying to get away from the impact effects in what is now Mexico.

Fortunately the cold climates and semiautomatic spears took care of the millions of illegals....however, to this day I cannot eat another dinoburger.

Bush lied, dinosaurs died!

Even in all caps, these claims were outmoded:
