The Bible can't logically explain dinosaurs

[Slayrix]

In the Bible on day six ALL living things are created. But how can that be if the fall hasn't happened yet? When it says ALL living animals that means carnivores too, but if it's before the fall then death cannot occur, even to animals. So how could things such as carnivores, things like T-Rexes live for thousands, maybe millions of years while Adam and Eve were in the garden, without a single bit of food? That would have to mean in the beginning carnivores didn't exist and instead EVOLVED after the fall, but then that doesn't work either because evolution completely rips apart a bunch of religious ideas. We know dinosaurs exist, we know T-Rexes exist, yet the Bible cannot possibly explain it logically how they came to exist.

Also according to the Bible's logic since carnivores couldn't have possibly lived before the fall, that means the only way T-Rexes could have ever come to be is if humans co-existed with dinosaurs. But we have not been able to find any evidence that humans live even close to the time period of dinosaurs, so how does that work?

Things just don't add up here.

Out of curiosity, why would the bible include the dinos? Remember most religious texts only deal with subjects that matter critically to the story at hand, like Moses going up on the mountain and finding those that came with him when he came back worshiping a Golden Ox is something that within reason makes sense when the Canaanites (a way older religion that I think has largely died off) used actual Bronze-statues of Ox's and cattle calfs as worshiping idols, its believable because to a standard the statue to the Canaanites meant Happiness, dispite what the bible says on it, the reason I bring it up shows that they used the actual item of the Canaanites Golden/Bronze Ox, while not giving details on what they were worshiping to hide if it was indeed Canaanites-based or otherwise.

Dino's have no real actual requirement to be in the story, as Jesus didn't really exist at the time period they were in and lets not forget that the Garden of Eden is a HIDDEN sanctuary, so Adam and Eve would of never seen the dinos if any existed while they were alive, as a matter of fact here's one.

The book uses the Cross which before Christianity was the Roman punishment of Cruxifiction, basically they would put you on two planks of wood and display to the public the prisoners, get this however: in Roman law, you were not allowed to harm these people on the cruxificuses as those on them would either be allowed off of them after a certain time or died on them, those that died were unhooked by Roman solders and given to members of the former prisoners family, hence why the body of Jesus was handed over to his followers, THAT IS ACTUALLY how it would of went down, so they (Sorry to even put it like this) nailed that part of actual roman punishment down rather damn well in the telling of the story, but they left out the parts of those soldiers sometimes tortured those on the cruxificuses as it was not really important to know if Jesus was tortured on the cross or not, we just needed to know he died for our sins.

I am just pointing out how dinos have been proven to have existed absolutely does not match up with what the Bible says.

While I would agree, its worth noting at the writing of the bible, no one knew dinos existed to start with, given the first dino bone ever found was in 1858, thats over 1000 years after Jesus died so at the time of all that went down, no one knew Dinos ever roamed the planet ever anyways xD

Actually, we've always known about fossil bones. Romans thought they were the bones of the Titans and Heroes.

I guess the book got too many plot holes :P

[Angel]

I'm surprised people expect a book with 1200 pages will explain everything over hundreds of millions of years.

[skOsH♥]

I think we just need to give the Bible some time to defy the laws of physics. After all, no one has thought to put one into a particle accelerator. That's sciences fault, obviously

[Pierce Dalton]

The Bible wasn't written to explain anything, its purpose is... well, entirely different.

[Pronoun Paladin ☯]

The bible never specifically mentions the platypus either, doesn't mean the platypus doesn't exist.

in bible men are the strongest and chosen race or stuff like that.. even if ppl would have known about dinosaurs or other old species they for sure wouldnt have included them in the bible

Admit it. You're jealous that Samson slew the last velociraptor in a drunken fist-fight.

It might have been a game of cards and the raptor cheated

I have some bad news if you thought that the Bible should explain anything using logic and reason.

The Bible is NOT supposed to explain anything using logic and reason.

The purpose of the Bible is to teach faith.

Faith is believing in something that transcends any kind of logic and reason.

I keep a copy in the bathroom just in case ..... use imagination.

Now I am in the mood to listen to some Blackmetal and think about what some cool people did in Norway during the early 1990s.

I look at religion as just a collection of ideas that people take on faith to follow. Yes it can have plot-holes but so does anything else in life.

For instance I've never met a person who believes in evolution that doesn't have their own adherence to plot holes.

Intelligent dinosaurs actually existed on the moon billions of years ago.

God made dinosaurs, got bored, smacked them with a comet, and then lied to us about it and went "what're you gonna do, chump?"
