If there's one thing scientists seem to play as their trump card it's dinosaurs. How many times do we see earnest atheist kids come charging into God's favourite forums yelling "What about the dinosaurs, eh? Yeah, explain those!" etc etc.
Of course, God has plenty to say about dinosaurs in His marvellous reference book to all things: the Bible.
Job 40:15-24
15Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.
16Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.
17He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.
18His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.
19He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.
20Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play.
21He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.
22The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.
23Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.
24He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.
So it can come as no small surprise that scientists once again can't make their minds up about dinosaurs. Except, of course, scientists are always changing their minds!

Dinosaurs must have lived in water, scientist claims
Professor Brian J Ford said the prehistoric creatures “just don’t work” in the way palaeontologists have understood for decades.
He believes their tails were too large and cumbersome for them to hunt or move with agility, and said they could not have consumed enough food to sustain their energy needs.
Instead, he claims they must have lived in water where their environment would support their bulk successfully.
Appearing on BBC Radio 4 ‘s Today programme this morning, he described how an shallow water landscape would have been “sympathetic” to their size.

Yes, that's right, folks, once again scientists can't stick to their guns and be right about something. It's like they think the Truth® is constantly up for grabs and can be moulded to fit their needs as they see fit. No wonder they constantly look for excuses to have anal sex.
Here's what passes for evidence from the scientist. It's clearly a drawing from the imagination of some unidentified person, making things up to meet what he thinks must have been going on in the past.

The huge creatures 'actually lived in water' - and their tails were swimming aids
We know huge dinosaurs once roamed the Earth - but their little feet and huge bulky tails don’t look ideal for getting around.
A Cambridge scientist believes he has the answer – claiming that dinosaurs actually lived in water.
The creatures would have spent most of their time splashing through lakes between 15ft and 30ft deep, and their huge tails helped them swim.
He says thinking of them as aquatic creatures explains everything, and means a major reassessment of the ‘Jurassic Park’ idea of them roaming grassy plains.
Brian Ford, a cell biologist, believes this explains why archaeologists have unearthed dinosaur footprints for the dinosaurs, but there is no sign of tailmarks as if they wasted large amounts of energy holding their tails in the air.

Yes, you heard that right. Dinosaurs lived by rivers and lakes. Does this sound familiar? Check the description of behemoth from the book of Job. This bumbling fool of a scientist appears to have magically stumbled upon what had been staring him in the face all the time. God was right all along! Who would have thought it!
So are other scientists taking this lying down? Obviously not! In a display of infighting reminiscent of Catholics arguing over who gets the new altar boy first they are slagging off the heretic. Where have we seen this before? Every time a scientist comes up with a "theory" that guides us back in the direction the Holy Spirit is directing the satanic science conspiracy closes ranks and brands the outsider as a crank. Shameful behaviour!

However Dr Paul Barrett, a palaeontologist at the Natural History Museum in London said the theory does not stack up.
He said: ‘This idea was very popular from around the 1920s, but since the 1960s we have demonstrated with the help of engineering work on load-bearing structures, that dinosaurs had more than enough muscle strength in their legs to get around easily on land. They were engineered for it.
‘You run into more problems when you put them into water as they would have had trouble breathing, and would have been slow to move around in squelchy mud. They may well have lived near water or gone into it sometimes to cool off, but I just don’t buy the theory that they lived in it.’

You can almost taste the prejudice against ancient wisdom that has stood the test of time and is regularly confirmed by True Christian scientists unafraid to be controversial and prepared to search for God's wisdom writ large on His creation.
GLORY!
