Re: Did homosexuality kill off the dinosaurs?

So I take it that you do? You were there the day god created the earth and the day dinosaurs died?

Obviously not, you big silly, nobody lives for 6000 years. But God was and He made sure it was all written down perfectly as it happened with no errors. And it was a shame and all that that the dinosaurs never made it past the flood, but once the world went bad they'd have been a pain to live with anyway.

So what you're saying is that dinosaurs and humans lived at the same time? It would be quite strange to write down their existence while humans didn't exist yet.

There is some debate here, some say that all of the dinosaurs dies because of the flood, others such as Answers in Genesis say that some of the dinosaurs were on the Ark.

"How Did Those Huge Dinosaurs Fit on the Ark? Although there are about 668 names of dinosaurs, there are perhaps only 55 different “kinds” of dinosaurs. Furthermore, not all dinosaurs were huge like the brachiosaurus, and even those dinosaurs on the Ark were probably “teenagers” or young adults."

But there is no doubt that dinosaurs lived side by side with the pre flood folk.

Re: Did homosexuality kill off the dinosaurs?

I am new on this forum and this subject actually fascinates me. I always believed the Arc Of Noah to be an interesting topic.

If 2 animals (male and female) of every species were put on a ship for 150 days, how were they fed? What about fish, were they on the boat too? How big was the boat? There are over one million species on this planet, it's kind of hard to fit them all on a ship, is it not?

The flood itself is kind of interesting too actually, I mean, where did the water go after 150 days? It just magically disappeared?

Topic related: I think it's highly unlikely dinosaurs died out because of homosexuality, primary instincts would have prevented that from happening.

Welcome to the forum, Danny. Please start a thread of your own in the introduction forum and tell us what church you go to, what your favorite Bible verse is and how you came to find Jesus.

Noah took seven of every clean animal (Gen 7:2) and two of every unclean. The simple answer to your questions (How did all the animals fit on the ark? Where did all the water go?) is that God did it. The Flood itself was a supernatural event, and God can do all things.

I have seen the rules regarding the introduction forum and it seemed unfair for me to start a thread there because I am actually an atheist.

I am however very open to discussion about the matter because I am very eager to learn about the beliefs regarding True Christianity. The "simple" answer you give me doesn't quite satisfy my need of information. I can understand that you believe God did it, but how did he do it? How did he fit all those one million species on one boat? As you just told me, even more animals should have been on the arc than I originally thought. I'm unsure about the meaning of a "clean" animal, but there should have been an estimate of 2.000.000 - 7.000.000 animals on board, how did He fit them all on that boat?

You should still make an intro thread because we're here to talk about God.

But first, we like to emphasise that Noah took representatives from every kind on the ark. Because evolution hadn't been invented in Noah's day, he wouldn't have understood the modern concept of species, although he did apparently understand the difference between clean and unclean animals about 1,000 years before God gave the dietary laws to Moses.

Gen 6:19-20 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every [sort] shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep [them] alive with thee; they shall be male and female. Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every [sort] shall come unto thee, to keep [them] alive.

The verses above make it clear Noah took only terrestrial and avian animals on the ark. He didn't take any fish. God miraculously preserved maritime life from the rapid decrease in salinity caused by the Flood and freshwater life from the rapid increase in salinity.

There are many questions that the Bible doesn't clearly answer. We're not told how many kinds of animals there were, although there were probably more in Noah's day because the dinosaurs hadn't become extinct yet. We're not told how God stopped all the predators from killing all the other animals or what they ate or how the territorial animals managed managed to get along or how they were fed or how sanitation was maintained. For the questions the Bible doesn't answer, I usually go to Answers in Genesis. They have a lot of answers for things the Bible doesn't actually say. But the Genesis account of the Flood makes perfect sense if you believe in an all-powerful God. It only doesn't make sense if you remove God from the picture.

Very well, I shall make one later.

I'm confused here, I thought True Christians didn't believe in evolution what so ever? I'm quite confused on the idea of inventing evolution as well, how does that work?

I see no mentioning of the 7 animals he took from clean species? Is it mentioned in another verse perhaps?

On the fish matter, not that it is of high importance but o well, is it not more likely that they evolved (since evolution was already invented?) to be able to live in salt water? I'm just curious because I accidently killed my salt-water fish by putting it in a regular aquarium.

How come they have the right answers to the questions the bible doesn't answer? Anyway, thank you for the honest answer that you do simply not know, because I have seen a lot of people on this forum who seem too arrogant to ever admit such a thing. But that's not the point, I'm just curious how you can find answers to whatever the Bible doesn't say, because I've read along the lines on this forum that His Word is the only True Word?

Re: Did homosexuality kill off the dinosaurs?

We most certainly do not believe in evolution. I just meant that when the Bible says "kind" it may mean something different from the evolutionary idea of "species."

I'm quite confused on the idea of inventing evolution as well, how does that work?

Some guy who wants an excuse to reject belief in God writes a book about how we evolved from monkeys, and life and the universe came from nothing. And then the idea catches on among other people who want to continue to live in sin and so they fabricate fossils like Piltdown Man and Nebraska Man. And then they take God out of schools and teach this theory to children as if it's fact and they get brainwashed into believing it. It's that simple really. I could invent a theory like that myself.

I see no mentioning of the 7 animals he took from clean species? Is it mentioned in another verse perhaps?

Ah, yes. That's a later verse.

Gen 7:2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that [are] not clean by two, the male and his female.

On the fish matter, not that it is of high importance but o well, is it not more likely that they evolved (since evolution was already invented?) to be able to live in salt water?

I said evolution hadn't been invented. Anyway, I thought according to evolution theory freshwater fish evolved from saltwater ones.

Well, not everything AiG says is true. In fact, if you visit their site, they have a whole list of arguments that they used to use that they now say shouldn't be used anymore. But their heart is in the right place. They exist because atheists, like yourself, keep asking us Christians questions that just aren't answered in the Bible, and so we have to have someone to provide possible answers for us which they may retract in the future. People go to AiG for answers, not for the truth that only the Bible can provide.

Re: Did homosexuality kill off the dinosaurs?

You people actually exist?

Homosexuality killed the dinosaurs? I wasn't there so i can't say it isn't true, but neither can i disprove that jesus dressed up as a banana and killed the dinosaurs with a rubber chicken.

Therefore, dinosaurs were massacred by a chicken-wielding banana-themed jesus. Prove me wrong by using the arguements people use to disprove the "homosexuality killed the dinosaurs"-theory, and see how much sense they make.

And don't quote books on me, aslong as i dont get solid proof that the writer is real, i don't accept them as facts. Use arguements and facts, fight fire with fire.

Exactly! Were you there? No.

This is a Christian forum. We will quote the Bible to you. It is the very foundation of our beliefs. Besides, what other evidence do we have that God exists? Well, there is evidence outside the Bible -- in nature (Rom 1:18-32; Ps 19:1) and conscience (Rom 2:15) -- but if the Bible didn't tell us this was evidence, we wouldn't have known it was.

And if you want proof that the writer of the Bible is real, think about it this way. The Bible is a real book. Someone had to have written it; therefore the writer is real. In fact, the Bible was written by many people over many centuries, but I can assure you they were all real people. And they can be trusted because the words they wrote were not their own but God's (2 Tim 3:16; 2 Pet 1:21). If God didn't exist, how could He have inspired them?

Now if you would please head over to the introduction forum and tell us what church you go to, what your favorite Bible verse is and how you came to find Jesus.

Re: Did homosexuality kill off the dinosaurs?

Lots of animals are gay today so I'm sure there must have been gay dinosaurs but no way did it kill them off. Being gay is perfectly natural and part of god's plan. I'm sure people who write in the bible about it being a sin were mistaken because when I think about Jesus he doesn't disapprove of my wedding plans with Shania at all.
