Do you believe in dinosaurs or did they ever exists?I personnally believe that dinosaurs never existed. Just come to think of it,they are such a huge animals so if they really existed, under what era? As the bible says, that the earth is created in 7 days, and on the 6th day, He created adam and eve, so if dinosaurs were part of the creation then the could've eaten all the people that lived during that time. Don't you think so?

If you wish I can use the Bible to back the theorm of dinosaurs existence. Giants roamed the earth. Dinosaurs? The physical evidence can not be disputed. You say they are such huge animals...then I take it that whales don't exist, elephants, giant octipi etc. Why is evolution so hard to reconsile with the Bible? God, it says, created heaven and earth and all things thereon...it also says in 6 days he created this and on the 7th he rested. It also says that your lifetime is but a blink of God's eye. How many times do you blink in a day? If you approach Biblical creation and evolution logically you can see how the two fit together very neatly. The Creator is also a planner, archetect and builder. First he made a decision, then he planned, then he implimented. Light was first. Then firmament was brought 'up'. The light dried the firmament didn't it? Like any good builder he prepared his ground. Raising some portions, lowering others, packing loose dirt, loosening dirt too tightly packed. If you were to make a garden you would till the soil, you would add fertilizers, you would shade some of it and allow full light to some of it. If you can do all that why would not a Creator? If one believes in God, one must also believe he has a sense of humor...after all, he created the elephant, duckbill platypus and us. Or so the story goes.

Ways to life on earth is far different than that of what is written in Bible. Bible tells us the story of GOD, but in reality we were not created we were evolved from our ancestors. Dinosaurs did existed. Those animals were the mid age of evolution. They were huge because they had that many resources and spaces to move about. The path of evolution also may had contributed to their hugeness. And so Dinosaurs and Human in no way could had coexisted so there is hard to say who would had eaten whom. Dinos had bigger figures but humans are powered by knowledge.

So you mean that you don't believe in God's creation? Then if we are indeed a product of evolution where did we evolved, from monkeys? let's say we came from monkeys, then where do that monkey came from? who created that monkey?

Yes i do believe in dinosaurs, and yes they did exist, how can you explain the massive bones, fossils, prehistoric fish, etc. that have been found, I believe in god, but i also believe that the bible is written in stories, so that we can learn lessons, when adam & eve were on earth did they write the story of the garden of eden?, if not then who did?, and how can we take these stories as legitimate as there were no records of births & deaths kept (on file), to say that dinosaurs didn't exist is proposterous as there is proof, where is the proof of adam or eve?, or any of their sons/daughters, or indeed any of their sons/daughters, have you ever seen lets say, a letter written from adam to eve? because i have definitely seen dinosaur bones so, yes dinosaurs did exist, although they are extinct now, in a few years when some of the other endangered animals on earth (tigers,elephants,pandas,whales,etc.)die out, although you will still be able to see their bones, will you then say that these did not exist either?

I believe they did exist. Where did all the bones come from, how did they recreate the dinosaurs in the museums?

it's probably the bones of some other type of animals that they exagerates.. cause if they really exists, why did they disappeared?

They existed a lot of time before man evolved from the first mammals. They disappeared 'cause of the last meteorite which falled on the earth, 'cuasing strong earthquakes, powders enhighment in the skies, covering sun, a strong volcanic activity. Most of them disappeared (we have still some little animals from that period, crocodiles and komodo dragons for example). In that period the first mammals started evolving, reaching in millions years, our morphology. Adam & Eve never existed, they are a fable, and the Catholic churce accepted it. The earth didn't born in 7 days, and it is about millions years old.

Of course dinosaurs existed. There's proof that they did. I've always wondered about the bible and dinosaurs as well, but you can't take everything in the bible literally I think.

I believe they were. because science has every proof that they were existing on the earth. even in india few years back scientists have found its eggs. But, we can thank god that they are not existing now.

well first of all you have to decide what to believe-science or religion.if you believe religion or the bible you can continue to believe that there were no dinosaurs. but if you believe in science there are ample evidences that the dinosaurs used to exist on the earth before the existence of man.and they got wiped off the earth before the human race took birth.

Dinosaurs, one of the most successful groups of animals (in terms of longevity) that have ever lived, evolved into many diverse sizes and shapes, with many equally diverse modes of living. The term "Dinosauria" was invented by Sir Richard Owen in 1842 to describe these "fearfully great reptiles," specifically Megalosaurus, Iguanodon, and Hylaeosaurus, the only three dinosaurs known at the time. The creatures that we normally think of as dinosaurs lived during the Mesozoic Era, from late in the Triassic period (about 225 million years ago) until the end of the Cretaceous (about 65 million years ago). But we now know that they actually live on today as the birds. I believe in dinosaurs. Have a great day on mylot!

I think that dinosaurs did exist, but I don't think it was as long ago as other people think. I think that when people say millions and billions of years ago that they are ignorant and don't really know how old the earth is. But when fossils are found there's really no way to deny that they did exist!

DINOSAURS DID EXIST ELSE WE WOULDN'T HAVE GOT THEIR HUGE SKELETONS! THEY GOT DESTROYED MILLIONS OF YEARS AGO DUE TO SOME NATURAL CALAMITIES LIKE EARTHQUAKES, VOLCANOES, HITTING ASTEROIDS AND METEORS, ETC. SCIENTISTS HAVE PROVED THAT. THANK GOD THEY ARE NOT INTO EXISTENCE NOW.

Yes, I'm sure dinosaurs existed because their actual fossils have been discovered.
