""Because the bible is about man's relationship to God in human history; it isn't about geology or dinosaurs or aerodynamics.""

1. That dinosaurs existed is irrefutable (we have the bones to prove it).

2. The evidence for dinosaurs existing at the time of the events described in either version of genesis is entirely absent in those accounts.

3. That evidence is also absent throughout the father to son record, of which the Old Testament consists.

4. No mention of any form of creature, from dinosaur to ice age megabeast appears anywhere in any biblical text.

Strange indeed, if the bible is an inerrant divine explanation of the period from Creation of the Universe to the time of Christ (some 4000 years), and not, as the idiot comment above states, ""about man's relationship to God in human history;"".

Where is the mention of strange huge reptiles and woolly "elephants", flying lizards and sabre toothed cats marching aboard the ark. They would certainly be sufficiently outstanding to warrant comment in such a historical document.

They don't feature, not because they have no relevance to said document, but because they predated its existence by millions of years.

Belief in Young Earth Creationism is a perfect example of the triumph of successful brainwashing over sanity and logic.
