To the Creationist/ID jackoffs, what years were dinasaurs on the planet?
Edited on Mon Sep-17-07 03:29 PM by Rabrrrrrr
I was just thinking about it - if the world is 6500 years old, and for those Creationist/ID jackoffs who don't think fossils were put here by Satan or God for the express purpose of fucking with our minds, they must have a pretty specific range of years in which the dinosaurs existed.

Instead of the more scientific "150 million to 65 million years ago", the Creationist/ID jackoffs have to be able to pinpoint it all pretty exactly, like "They existed from the years 182 to 421".

I've read (brain-numbingly ignorant though they are) a fair amount of Creationist/ID jackoff mumbo jumbo propaganda, but never come across any real dates for dinosaurs, other than "Noah had them" and some other jackoff idiocy.

Have you come across any specific dates?

4. When the bible was written. Duh.
Revelations mentions a leviathan (or something) and that's clearly a stegosaurus.

Also St George slew a dragon, which eyewitnesses identify specifically as Fred Flintstone's pet Dino.

What I want to know is how they explain the size of the universe. Do they claim that there are no objects more distant than 6500 ly or were the photons created in transit?

17. I know you plebians tend to have bought the naive "T-Rex" translation,
but we experts know that the Aramaic should actually be more rightfully translated as "Triceratops".

But you probably went to a B-level seminary, not an A-level one like me.

I do thank you, however, for the clarification of the rest of the verse's true translation.

20. did you get your theology degree from Bob's College of Small Engine Repair?
why would the original verse include a reference to a herbivore, when clearly the carnage and havoc which only a T-Rex is capable of is implied throughout book?

I'd ask your "A-level seminary" for a refund.

I know A-N is still teaching that particular falsity. Sad, really, but not surprising; A-N's never been known for its students' or professors' scholarly abilities.

39. Creation Science for kids
http://www.christiananswers.net/dinosaurs/home.html




http://objectiveministries.org/kidz/

Spiritual Safety Tip

What should you do if you find an Atheist?

If you find an Atheist in your neighborhood,
TELL A PARENT OR PASTOR RIGHT AWAY!

You may be moved to try and witness to
these poor lost souls yourself, however
AVOID TALKING TO THEM!

Atheists are often very grumpy and bitter and will lash out at children or they may even try to trick you into neglecting God's Word.

Very advanced witnessing techniques are needed for these grouches. Let the adults handle them.

64. This website is the living shit.
MAR 28, 2003: "ROCK CHIP REPAIR" SCAM
Dr. Troy Franklin, OBJECTIVE occult expert, has brought to our attention a disturbing new danger to weak-spirited Christians and unsaved persons that we feel needs to be reported.

As he tells it, while out at a local supermarket shopping for food for his cat, Dr. Franklin noticed one of those small tents advertising "Free Rock Chip Repair" that have been springing up in our nation's parking lots. Curious, he went to enquire about getting a ding in his windshield sealed, only to learn that the person manning the tent had other intentions, namely to try and recruit Dr. Franklin into a cult!

Fortunately, the good doctor has become quite immune to cultic recruiting ploys from his years studying their tactics, and thus he was able to extricate himself from the situation with his soul unharmed. However, those less skilled in their Faith -- and especially those of false faiths or no faith at all -- would have soon found themselves back at the cult headquarters doing all manner of unspeakable rites and blasphemies... or maybe even brainwashed into manning a tent of their own.

For the safety of your soul, do not be tempted by the lure of impulse rock chip repair from strangers in parking lots. It may say free, but it could cost you your soul! If you need your windshield fixed, go to a qualified Christian repair shop.

77. I just watched "Before the Dinosaurs" on the Discovery Channel
The Fundies would really have their heads spinning over that one... especially since it stated that life on earth started when a comet collided with our dead world and the two combined to form a world that could support life (with a remaining piece of the comet becoming the moon)

I guess they could say that God caused the comet to hit the earth.

86. Yes, it is very well done
I fell for it at first, probably because it so closely tracks other fundy sites.

46. Giddy Up!


The kids run past that and around a corner, where stands another, smaller dinosaur.

Which is wearing a saddle.

It is an English saddle, hornless and battered. Apparently, this was a dinosaur used for dressage competitions and stakes races. Any working dinosaur accustomed to the rigors of ranch work and herding other dinosaurs along the dusty trail almost certainly would wear a sturdy western saddle.

48. ridiculous!
the Creationists make such fools of themselves coming up with these absurd theories. Why is it so hard for these people to just say that the Biblical account of creation is an abstract notion? Then they can permit what modern science has validated into their beliefs. They can believe that the age of the Earth is around 4 billion years old, and that evolution occurs, and still believe God created this stuff....

83. From Creation to the Flood

Noah couldn't fit them on the ark.

All of the animals were created during the first week of creation.

The dinosaurs died in the flood, since they weren't on the ark.

They got buried in mud, and that's where fossils come from.

Don't you knowz Siense?

87. No idea, but ask the next fundie asshole you meet this question...
If God created dinosaurs and all the other ancient reptiles, and they were supposedly wiped out in the Flood, then why don't we still have plesiosaurs, icthyosaurs, pliosaurs, mosasaurs, and other marine reptiles?

Key points to make them babble and stammer as logic squashes their feeble minds:

A flood's not going to trouble species that already live in the water their whole lives (most marine reptiles were viviparous). Shit, a flood would be like Thanksgiving for them -- plenty of corpses floating around for them to feast on.

The floodwaters drying up and stranding them all wouldn't have been an issue, because the texts specifically say the waters took a long time to dry out. I haven't read the Old Testament in over ten years, but I still remember that.

89. Good question!
Edited on Tue Sep-18-07 08:38 PM by Liberalynn
One I always had is how the whole world got started from one family. I mean where did the child bearers for Cain and Able's kids come from, if the only other woman was their own mother? Did God just make a couple more women for them, and then more people for their grandkids to marry? Probably a bunch of really stupid questions but they never explained any of this in Catholic school, and it always bothered me but I was afraid to ask for fear of getting smacked with the ruler. LOL.
