The question is not "how did the dinosaurs go extinct" but
"did the dinosaurs go extinct?"
AFTER THE FLOOD
Dinosaurs were faced with a hostile world,
the canopy was gone and the climate changed.
Man began to hunt them for food and
because they were becoming a menace.
The word "dinosaur" was invented by Sir Richard Owen in 1841.
Before that time they were known as dragons.
600 B.C.
The walls of the old city of Babylon
(rebuilt in recent times under Saddem Hussein)
had hundreds of pictures of dragons on them
300 A.D.
The men of Alexander the Great were scared to death by dragons.
200 A.D.
Roman mosaics showed two long-necked dragons fighting.
1000 A.D.
The Viking's ships had dragon heads on them.
1572 A.D.
An Italian peasant killed a dragon bothering his cows.
A scientist documented it.
400-500 YEARS AGO
The definition of "dragon" in dictionaries from 400-500 years ago
stated that "they are extremely rare though still living today."
The town of Nerloc, France is named for a man
who slew a dragon which was said to be
"bigger than an ox and had long sharp horns on its head."
There are pictures of dinosaurs carved on the walls of the Grand Canyon.

"There is no question man and dinosaurs lived together."

DINOSAURS IN THE BIBLE
Job 40:15-19
Behemoth - long-necked dinosaur
(There are 13 varieties)
Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee;
he eateth grass as an ox.
Lo now, his strength is in his loins,
and his force is in the navel of his belly.
He moveth his tail like a cedar:
the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.
His bones are as strong pieces of brass;
his bones are like bars of iron.
He is the chief of the ways of God...
(NOTE)
Verse 16 His strength is in his belly.
Verse 17 He has a tail like a cedar (front legs 20 feet tall).

He is the chief of the ways of God.

THE BIGGEST SWAMP
In Africa, the Likouala Swamp is 55,000 square miles
and dinosaurs still live there today.
THE DEVIL
Could not fool Adam or Noah, because they lived with the dinosaurs.
1,000 years ago dinosaurs were rare, but people still believed in them.

they did not believe in them.

of dinosaurs in this century.
