Do Dinosaurs Exist?

The reason why most believe in Dinosaurs is because of the evolutionist view of how the world began. According to them, Dinosaurs evolved long before man, around 235 million years ago through a big bang. Thus, it is said, that no human being ever lived with dinosaurs. They established their history through the record of deposited fossil layers on Earth, wherefore the dinosaurs ruled the Earth for millions of years. Accordingly, around 65 million years ago, something happened—the dinosaurs disappeared. Most evolutionists believe some cataclysmic event, for example, an asteroid impact, wiped them off the face of the earth.


Nevertheless, some quarters don’t accept this, the evolutionists call them religionists or creationists, the well-known counterparts of whom are Bible-believing Christians who believe in an intelligent designer who created everything. The Christians are mainly divided into two, those who believe in the existence of dinosaurs and those who do not, however, both are non-conformists to the knowledge of evolution.

First, to those dinosaur believers. Accordingly, the Bible gives to them the context for explaining dinosaurs in terms of thousands of years of history, not billions of years. Resolving the mystery of their existence based on the Bible, dinosaurs could have come along with the other land animals on Day 6 of the Creation Week (Genesis 1:20–25 & 31). On this basis, dinosaurs would have lived at the time of Adam and Eve—not separated by eons of time. The Bible says God made all things in six normal days, inclusive of all land animals, And so with the dinosaurs as well. (Genesis 1:24–25) The start date would be around 6,000 years ago—the estimated date of creation obtained by adding up the years in the Bible. They based its being, mainly on Job 40:15–24.


To the non-dinosaur believers, however, though they accept the Genesis account as the factual basis of creation, nevertheless they do not accept dinosaur existence, meaning these were never created on Day 6. For them, a mere generalization statement of the animal kingdom is insufficient justification for their inclusion. As such, saying that they were, would appear to be conjectural, a mere product of imagination. Hence, their existence would demand absolute physical evidence, just as the prevailing animal kingdom species known today has proven its existence. Thus, without proof, Job 40:15–24 remains a figurative language, the subject of myths and tales of cultural heritage, such as dragons and whatnot.


Further, as the actual records would have it, the evolutionists' fossil records[1] merely corroborate the false tale of the theoretical existence of the world through evolution—and nothing more—which to the dinosaur believers were acceptable proof of its existence— flawed pieces of evidence they may be. Until now, no one knows the actual appearances in the flesh or natural characteristics of the fossil species found; one can only surmise given such a mere skeletal system or structure. Having been unproven knowledge[2], i.e., billions of years, questionable evidence shouldn't be used to substantiate even the existence of such things.
