Some dinosaurs survived on Noah's ark.

I thought dinosaurs died out millions of years ago and Noah wasn't alive back then. How do they explain this?

This Noah comment really made me laugh.

I believe in the creation, but I have no idea how long a "day" was, as mentioned in Genesis. A day can mean a period of time. I don't usually get involved with the evolution vs. creation debate. I don't know how God created the earth and all the creatures on it. I'll just wait until I get to Heaven to find out exactly how the creation happened.

I agree...God will not judge us on what we believe about creation whether we get into heaven or not. Thats based on what we do knowing our sin, Christs suffering and Gods grace.

People need to hear the Truth and our fellow Freepers are part of the great commission.
If evo is true, God did not create, if evo is true, God did not save us.

We can look to Genesis for that answer:
Gen 1:13 "And the evening and the morning were the third day."
God says the same about each day of creation.
Again in Ex 20:
11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore

Ex 31:17 It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.

Cordially,
GE

The point being that perhaps Man is wrong and God is right and these animal species are not that old.

Very Cordially,
