When the dinosaurs ruled the earth, the largest mammals where the size of rats. Dinosaurs where long gone millons of years before the first human walked the earth.

You were there?

One does not have to have "been there" to know that the last dinosaurs perished approximately 65 million years before Biblical times. One need only examine the scientific evidence with unbiased, unclouded eyes.

It is indeed interesting to see people respond to questions about the, to put it extremely mildly, fanciful logistics of the story of Noah (Loading the animals, caring for them, assembling the sheer number of them, etc.) with "God did it; it was a MIRACLE!!".

If that were true, why did He even need the ark OR Noah in the first place?

The Bible is an excellent and heartwarming source of morals and principles to live by, as well as cautionary tales. But it's not a history or scientific text, regardless of how hard some attempt to make it so.
