    many just cannot Larry Dale Steele Neil Steven Lawrence

  2. William Mc Sr. says:

    it is scarely said in genisis 6 chapter; there was giants in the land. to get a good understanding you mus t read the book of enoch. good placed 200 angels over the earth to protect man from saton and his crew.the people of god look pleasing to the sons of god[ angels]. they went into them even the animals which caused mutations some animals grew as high as 400 feet. it came to the point that was not enough food them so they began to eat the people. they cried out to god and in his mercy he sent four of his mighty angels to destroy them. the off springs of them are called demons.

  3. Caleb Backholm says:

    There probably were dinosaurs on the ark. Why do you assume there weren’t?

  4. Wisdom Demilade Ayodele says:

    The gap theory is false and untrue, thought out to reconcile natural reasoning in science with the Bible. If one would believe the as the infallible Word of God, the “in the beginning” definitely shouldn’t be questioned or impugned.

  5. Timothy Harrod says:

    Young dinosaurs would be smaller and live longer, why assume they’d put gigantic fully grown dinosaurs on the ark!?

  6. Kenny Laatz says:

    …..dinosaurs were probably not hot or cold blooded creatures and so would not have survived in the post floods changed climate on the earths …….

    …..God also knew that they needed to consume vast amounts of green vegetation …..which would not have been readily available post flood…..?

  7. Keith A. Smith says:

    why would you bring fully grown anything onboard? but especially massive somethings?

  8. Patrick Matthew Parisi says:

    100 foot long animals on the ark? Would have been much easier to bring babies and not full-grown adults.

  9. Matthew Ellis says:

    Well, old earth creationism would suggest that the dinosaurs were extinct by that time so no worries there?

  10. Michael Spicer says:

    Who says there weren’t dinosaurs on the ark

  11. Matthew Burns says:

    Easy. Genesis Day 5 included the period covering the Cambrian Explosion and the evolution of flying creatures and “gadowl tanniyn” (aka great reptiles, which is your dinosaurs). Day 6 covered the period including the evolution of mammals and eventually hominids.

    Those who hold to a young earth creationist view based upon a surface reading and absolute literal interpretation in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary do the biblical text, and the faith, a great injustice.

  12. Andrew John Laatz says:

    The atmosphere having different oxygen content and atmospheric pressure would not have supported their little lungs and gigantic bodies, nor would there have been enough greenery or mammals initially to sustain their appetite.

  13. John Lappin says:

    If you think there was a 450 foot long boat that had 7 pairs of “clean” and 2 pairs of all the “unclean” animals on it – all adult size – a male and his mate the bible says – then you are not living in the real world.

  14. Chris Krumlauf says:

    Obviously, it would make zero sense to have water dwealing Dino’s on a boat. As far as the others, I’m pretty sure that all animals onboard would have been babies. Noah was smart like that.

  15. Joshua White says:
  16. Joseph Benhardt says:

    How do you know? Were you there?

  17. Jackson Lim says:

    Noah prolly carried baby animals and dinos with them. dinos were hunted down in the last centuries due to its threat and mere size. There are cultures that include dragons with them. Dinosaur word were invented only last 1841. They were called Dragons.

  18. William Mc Sr. says:

    `troy day I can not read your post and prove me wrong I am not a novice I have been a minister for 36 years studing the dead sea scrolls; the book of enoch and other lost books of the bible.old testament genesis 6-4 there was giants in the earth inthose days ; and also after that ,when the sons of god came in unto the daughters of men and they bear chilren unto them ,the same might men which were of old , men of renown.

  19. David Huckabay Jr says:

    The Bible says animal after it’s kind was on the ark, that includes the animals we now call dinosaurs. Though the Bible doesn’t say so, but it is logical that each animal may have been young and everyone fit on the ark. In the Bible there are animals mentioned and described such as livathon and behemoth. Those may have been what we now call dinosaurs. Nearly every culture has stories of what they call dragons, they might have been what we now call dinosaurs. What happened to them? Likely they went extinct from environmental conditions, disease, or being hunted into extinction by man.

  20. Paul Norman Hanover says:

    Read the chapter on dinosaurs in the free pdf or paperback book, After the Flood. Google “after the flood pdf”

  21. Michael Howell says:

    It’s call eggs and babies.

  22. Karl Ernst Von Buddenbrock says:

    No not sure. But the Old earth types can’t explain why dinosaur bones have been found with blood still in them and why the American Indians drew petroglyphs of them on cave walls. These things were around very recently. Certainly not “100 million years” ago, like Carl Sagan says.

  23. Cl Ing says:

    1. Dinosaurs still exist. Alligator, Crocodile, Gila
    2. Some Dinosaurs may have been on the arc. We do not know the list of animals.
    Hints: Start with authentic biblical and architectural evidence, ignore hearsay, check reliability resources on Creation Science, not made up myths of evolution. Ignore the jackal goofballs as they will certainly lead you off to ridiculous vain tangents.

  24. Emanuel Mullen says:

    You are in the wrong lane! Theology= God; Paleontologist=dinosaurs

  25. Alex Wong says:

    Dinosaurs likely were on the ark… where did they go? They likely were hunted into extinction…

  26. Pierre Desjardin says:

    Dinosaurs existed millions of years prior to your flood story

  27. Madison Willoughby says:

    Answers in Genesis says that the animals on the ark were babies so they wouldn’t take up so much room and require nearly as much food as grown animals. If dinosaurs were on the ark then they got off of it when everyone/everything else did. I read somewhere that several species of animals went extinct after leaving the ark because they didn’t have an adequate food source. To me, this makes no sense; why would God preserve them from the flood only to let them starve afterward? That’s crazy.

    Personally, and this is my opinion, I’m inclined to believe that God placed the dinosaurs in the fossil record when He made the earth. It explains why no human remains are found in the same geologic strata as the dinosaur remains. It explains why there are no living dinosaurs today (If God provided a food source for everything else, why not dinos?). Nor, does my position contradict the young earth theory by feeding into evolution.

    I’m aware of two arguments people can claim against my position. First, that God made every beast of the field and brought it to Adam to be named (Genesis 2:19). When you go to the Hebrew language to learn the definition of ‘beast’ you find that it means ‘fresh.’ Well, if God placed dinosaurs in the geologic column they wouldn’t have been ‘fresh’ and present for Adam to name. Nor would they have been on the ark which does away with the need for an event to make them extinct.

    Second, while Job does mention the Behemoth (40:15) and Leviathan (41:1) these are defined by the Hebrew as a ‘water ox such as a hippo’ and a ‘wreathed animal, a serpent (esp. a crocodile), respectively. Additional references to these creatures in Psalms and Isaiah have the same definitions.

    Well, why did God create dinosaurs, but tell us so little about them? In my opinion, God created them to test mankind. Three different times in scripture, Garden of Eden, Job and Jesus in His wilderness experience, God tested people. God is always testing people. Dinosaurs are a perfect test to determine if man will trust what he sees or if he will trust what God says. For example, people who don’t want to believe in God love to use dinosaurs as their fall back ‘proof’ that the earth is billions of years old. When they believe this, it allows them to laugh at the Genesis account of creation which, of course, means they fail the test of trusting God.

    Ham’s pet Rex is too big to fit inside?

  29. Max Gooche says:

    still NO other explanation Rodolfo Manzano

  30. David Butler says:

    1. There was no ‘ark’
    2. It couldn’t have been built in the time period even suggested
    3. It wouldn’t have been even pondworthy, much less seaworthy
    4. The notions of ‘kinds’ more or less refers to livestock and some familiar animal species common to the area, rather than the entire biosphere of the planet.
    5. There was no global flood
