How exhaustive does this evidence have to be? The world God made was absolutely loaded with
big, nasty creatures killing and bleeding over each other.

Interesting!
ABSTRACT—Predatory theropod dinosaurs can usually be identified as such by features of their jaws, teeth, and
postcrania, but different clades of these reptiles differed in their adaptations for prey handling. Inferences about
theropod diets and hunting behavior based on functional morphology are sometimes supported by evidence from
taphonomic associations with likely prey species, bite marks, gut contents, coprolites, and trackways.

Ehh so what's the point? Are you saying that there are people that believe T-Rex played with beach balls and snuggled with veggiesaurs?
Coprolite is fossilized dinosaur poop, for starters.

The point is that official dub teaching is that all animals lived peacably with each other, and all of them were herbivores prior to Adam and Eve's sin in Eden, and only after this did animals start using other animals for food.
This stoopid belief even applies to dinosaurs. I knew a sister who repeated a circuit overseer's opinion (so therefore, it must come from God's mouth) that the dinosaurs existed so that they could eat all the excess vegetation on Earth, preparing it for humans.
It is so easy to believe that the Genesis account is a factual telling of creation, as long as you totally ignore the last 500 years of scientific research, and basically set your brain to the "battery saver" setting.
Veggiesaurus Rex like nothing so much as a nice macaroni salad, but had to settle for miracle-whip instead of mayonaise.
Dear metatron:
Could you please clarify your point regarding this discussion?
The existence of Dinosaurs are an archaeological fact unless
I am missing a point here.
Someone, else offered their viewpoint, but I would rather see
it stated by the article writer.
Respectfully,
Richard
"The point is that official dub teaching is that all animals lived peacably with each other"-CaptainSchmideo
Personally, I do not recall that, however, I do recall
the teaching of animals living at peace with each other
in the paradise earth as Jehovah's Witnesses teach.
Source of information please Captain?
Wanderer..If I remember correctly,animals supposedly lived in peace,in the Garden of Eden..It was a long time ago,it was one of my WBT$ childrens storys................................Coprolite..Petrified Dinasour shit!..LOL!!..Most good rock shops have it..I`ve seen it..I wouldn`t spend money on it though..LOL!!...OUTLAW
Nathan...Here is what Veggiesaurus Rex looked like.
Strangely, no fossils have been found yet tho.
The wanderer....The Society has said that on a number of occasions.
*** w82 6/15 p. 31 Questions from Readers ***
After the flood of Noah’s day, God set out a change from the vegetarian diet that he had outlined for animals and humans in the garden of Eden.
The creation story is clearly that - a story. It tells a tale that modern day christians can still find relevant as long as they stop trying to cram science into a literalisation of a myth.
Adam (each and every human) falls from God to state of mortality and sin. Every one who so chooses to reverse this fall and regain God (but now as God knowing good and evil) has a path mapped out by Christ.
I'm fairly certain now that lack of knowledge coupled with blind faith in false interpretations of non-verified scripture create fundamentalist beliefs that are based on falsehood, argued for dogmatically and at the extreme Darwin's out the least theologically fit with TNT.
IF there is a God we have to bring him within the universe, tie him up with binding natural laws, stop assigning crazy, bad press miracles to Him (no global flood nor paradisical earth devoid of death) and apply faith in anything provable and certain that can be ascribed to Him than merely upon the reports of others found in whichever brand of religious writings we happen to find tucked under our pillow. If God exists let Him manifest himself otherwise we have no real excuse to believe in anything. As far as I can see that means living in a state of hope but low expectation, joy in now not in promised tomorrows, awe in an ordered world amidst fashioned from chaos and continue the search for the hows where and why's using science not superstition.
That said - I'm still rooting for the supernatural. It would be cool if Hogwarts was real.
