I will say this tho...I dont believe that all manner of baby dinosaurs were on that ark, as so many creationists would have me believe..

The Lord created the Earth? Could he not have also created bones to test your faith? Think Job. :)

I hope you are not going to get into where I think you are going....because this has been discussed before on FR

Here is what I have said on other threads....

I have acquaintances, who do not believe that dinosaurs ever, ever existed...they tell me, with a straight face, that the devil put those bones there to deceive man...

Or if that argument does not fly, they will then lapse into their second line story, which is that God himself put those dinosaur bones there to either, a. play a joke on man...b.devise a special secret plan to trick man, thus all those falling for the trick are to be condemned by God...

And then there are those who will tell me that the people in the Bible, actually lived and worked and survived living side by side with herds of great dinosaurs...

Just tune into the Creation Network(which states that one of its purposes is to convince us and prove to us that evolution is a lie)one of these days, and watch and listen as the speaker takes us through a 'wee walk through history', as he puts it...he will show us how the Leviathan in Job, was really a monstrous sea serpent, exactly mirroring one of the monsters whose bones have been found..then he will regale us with tales from people long gone, who have written dinosaurs into their peoples tales, these dinosaurs being very real, not myths...

He will show us slides of art work from different peoples, which show artistic renderings of dinosaurs, which proves dinosaurs exist(does this man think that because most people who draw space aliens which ressemble each other, that somehow proves space aliens are real?)

And then he goes on to tell us that the tale of Beowulf, was not just a 'tale', but an actual factual historic rendering of some sort of dragon or dinosaur living side by side with man...

Nothing you can say, will be something I have not heard already...and discounted...

Are you suggesting, then, that God is deliberately deceiving us? I was not aware that Christian theology held that God was also the father of lies.
