Dinosaurs and humans did not co-exist.

Where is your evidence. If you read the Bible there are various passages about dragons and the leviathan. Dinosaur is a relatively new term invented in the 1800s I believe,

Carbon dating does tell us how old organic material is.

But it is frequently misused and is inaccuarate over a certain number of years

Light travels at a set speed, and millions of years must have passed for us to see starts that are millions of light years away.

Tere is evidence that the speed of light has slowed from the mid 1800s and if calculated backwards is near infinite 6000 years ago.

Do you think that, maybe, just maybe the reason for the 'slow down' in c is because we have much better equipment now that is much more reliable and has far greater accuracy?

Well, as anti-evolutionists are keen to point out, you cannot prove a negative. (You cannot prove that God didn't create the world, for example) But you can have enough evidence to make any rational person believe a negative has been disproved. In this case, the overwhelming evidnce (and lack of evidence to the contrary) would lead any rational person to believe that humans and dinosaurs did not co-exist.

"Dinosaur" may be a recently new term, but humans have seen the evidence of giant lizard fossils in the ground for millenia. The only mention of Dragons in the Bible is in Revelation, which is a vision interpreted as a prophecy.

Frequent misuse does not mean it is wrong. I frequently misuse my calculator; that doesn't mean the calculator is wrong.. And apparently science has figured out that it can be inaccurate after a certain time period, and thus we know when and when not to rely on it so we're not being fooled.

Well, first of all, I think that measurements of the speed of light were not quite as accurate in the 1800s as they are today, so I'm not persuaded it has changed. And second, that's quite a leap to say it was infinite 6000 years ago without presenting an awful lot of observations and math.

For me, it all boils down to this: If you've ever been around scientists, you know they are always testing and criticising and poking holes in theories. The search to understand the world around us. That's the point of science. If there were credible evidence of creation in six days 6,000 years ago, you better believe the science world would publish and recognize it. It's just irrational to believe that hundreds of thousands of scientists have for centuries been involved in a consiracy to distort evidence in order to deny the biblical account of creation.

Dinosaurs and humans did not co-exist.Where is your evidence. If you read the Bible there are various passages about dragons and the leviathan. Dinosaur is a relatively new term invented in the 1800s...

If dinosaures and humans co-existed cave paintings made by early man would show them hunting T-Rex and Diplodicus as well as mammoth and bison.

The word dinosaur was coined in the 1800's to describe the ancient and gigantic bones that were being unearthed. Before the 1800 many great dinosaur fossils were found and destroyed by people who picked them up and didn't know what they were. Just because something didn't have a name didn't mean it did not exist. The term automobile didn't exist until they actually had to name it.

[Dinosaurs and humans did not co-exist.]

Where is your evidence.

You mean *besides* all the evidence showing that dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago, and no humans of any kind existed before 2-3 million years ago?

If you read the Bible there are various passages about dragons and the leviathan. Dinosaur is a relatively new term invented in the 1800s I believe,

Well, since the evidence that dinosaurs died out looong before humans existed is about as ironclad as anything can be, you have two options here:

1. The Bible made a mistake.

2. The Bible is talking about creatures other than dinosaurs.

Your choice.

Here I thought the Cretinoids had already reached their intellectual nadir and you show up!

Or is that back again?

"There is evidence that the speed of light has slowed from the mid 1800s and if calculated backwards is near infinite 6000 years ago."

You're kidding us, right?
