I have a religious friend who believes it is possible that dinosaurs and humans may have existed...?
I have a religious friend who believes it is possible that dinosaurs and humans may have existed at the same time. If he is right, then does anywhere in the Bible it state that Jesus was human and not a velociraptor?
I realize he's crazy for saying it, that is quite obvious. I was hoping that there may be some religious person on here who believes the same thing is possible and would provide me with some kind of evidence that Jesus was, in fact, a human being.

Dinosaurs were created on day 6 along with all the other land animals, including Adam and Eve.
Those that think the dinosaurs died out millions of years ago are perhaps unaware of the large amount of evidence indicating that they lived recently alongside man.
There are many written accounts and depictions of dinosaurs.

Remember that the word dinosaur was invented in 1841. Before that people used names like dragon.
People from all over the world have accounts of dinosaurs: the Chinese who have incorporated it into their lunar calendar, The Welsh who have the dragon in their flag; The account of the Saxon Beowolf; The native american thunderbird; and other stories from many other nations. The Romans even made mosaics of them. The temple of Angkor in Cambodia has a carving that is clearly a Stegosaur – presumably 800 years ago it was a familiar animal to them. http://creation.com/angkor-saw-a-stegosaur
The Bible (the book of Job) has graphic descriptions of two creatures (Leviathan and Behemoth) which do not exists today and are almost certainly what we would now call dinosaurs. The Behemoth had a tail like a cedar tree.
In the Old Testament, the Hebrew word תנין , tanniyn, appears some 15 times—some
modern English translations translate it as ‘monster’, ‘serpent’ or ‘jackal’, while in
the King James Bible the word ‘dragon’ is used. Tanniyn could refer, at least in some
contexts, to large reptiles/dinosaurs.
Furthermore, dinosaur fossils have even been found containing blood cells - hardly 65 million years old.

But check the evidence for yourself - don't by brainwashed by dogmatic evolutionists who don't want us to think for ourselves :)

“To resist the huge reptiles, new humans would need to be big enough and strong enough to run faster, jump farther and set traps to use them as an alternative food supply. As the new humans evolved and grasped the concept of limited resources, they would use those same death traps to eliminate the huge reptiles as competition for available vegetation.”
Natalie asked, “How big would the new humans become, if they had to compete with huge reptiles?
Gabriel continued, “New humans would evolve to the maximum size for humanoids. The average woman would be about 8 feet tall and the average man near 9 feet tall. If they were any taller than that, the law of diminishing returns would be evident in their stature, physical dexterity, design of their bodies, and even their biology. Gravity and a different weight distribution would slow them down if they were any larger than that; due to the need for thicker, stronger bones, much heavier vital organs, and a wider support base; bigger feet and more legs.”
God asked, “What are the chances of that happening?”
Gabriel replied, “About 70%. But being smaller instead of larger would be a better survival mode by simply avoiding the huge reptiles; the cockroach syndrome. But the new humans would probably have an inclination to dominate or at least to control their habitat, not to simply survive.
God declared. “The huge reptiles must die. We have no choice; we must

Jesus is a human man not a dinosaur. Dinosaurs and humans did co exist. Where do you think all the dragon legends came from? The dragon descriptions sound very much like dinosaurs. Sure the details may have been exaggerated a little.

Dumb previous Sara Palin. How did she ever get to be Governor of Alaska and a vice presidential candidate? doesn't she recognize that that's a scientifically shown shown truth that dinosaurs lived 50 million years before apes all started replacing into men. How did she get via 12 years of public preparation and under no circumstances recognize that? I recommend particular there are the fairy memories we learn at church about God and six days of introduction yet what knowledgeable individual believes that still? doesn't Sarah do not ignore that each little thing contained in the universe replaced into created via the "massive Bang" about three hundred billion years in the past? before that there replaced into no longer some thing and out of that nothingness via some unusual twist of medical destiny the " massive Bang " got here about. Cant she see that? Is she so dumb that she questions that type of medical evidence? She in simple terms desires to have slightly extra " faith" contained in the those who quite recognize what's occurring in this international. Her mind might want to under no circumstances understand the complexities of the evolutionary procedure so she desires to easily go away that to higher minds. She possibly doesn't believe in global warming both . Any fool can see that the polar bears are dropping like flies from the nice and comfy temperature. the subsequent element you recognize she will possibly say that she doesn't believe in acid rain.

You think your Jesus was velociraptor ...now how does that fit.. It would have made those old Romans job difficult hoisting that up and nailing it to a large lump of wood.
You could be onto something there perhaps yet another dam religion. Large lizard lord.

Well, there is a lot of ancient art/cave paintings/ ledgends in ALL historical cultures about men and "dinosaurs" living together but the word dinosaur is a relatively new term hence the "dragon" ledgends and laviathon and other varying terms. Look into it. Decide for yourself.

Hahaha ok well, you've opened upa nice old can of worms here...
I've heard the same nonesense myself and they will tell you tha "Behemoth" as described in the bible is the "evidence" that man had run-ins with old Barney.
If it was written in the book, it must be... in that case, I'd better lock my door at night, or all of Dr. Seuss creatures will come after me offering green eggs and ham....

Your religious friend is a moron.
The big dinosaurs died out around 65 million years ago.
Had they not died out, mammals would have remained dessert.

Well... he's wrong. Really - there's just a bunch of religious morons who feel left out - so they make this crap up. The world is full of stupid stories these morons create out of thin air.
