Yes, I'm curious as to the line of questioning of this as well. Obviously, some great thing happened in the earth. Possibly it was the splitting of the continents that created earthquakes and tsunamis and volacnoes and all sorts of world-altering events. Maybe it WAS a giant meteor that kicked up enough dust to blot out the sun. Maybe God had had enough of these creatures and finished them off to make room for us. I don't know. I can't even begin to guess. But I'm curious as to where you're going here.

I dunno. I never really took a big interest in it myself. I'd say a meteor is likely, but there are several major theories out there. Where are you going with this?

I believe it had to do with their physiology and the Changes in the earth's atmosphere after the flood. They couldn't breath right...

There are a multitude of theories, but the most logical explanation is that the dinosaurs went the way the garden of eden did, which is they were all killed of by the great flood... what better why to destroy a entire species than a world wide flood?

Dinosaurs are mentioned in the bible. Job 41 portrays the Leviathan. The Bible describes a sharp-toothed, scaled creature whose habitat is the mire and deep waters. Some parts even mentioning that it breaths fire. And the Behemoth, also in Job, which had a tail that moved like ceder and was "chief in the ways of god.

"And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon ...And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth:" (Revelation 12:3-4).

Hm...I was always under the impression that it was a meteor. I mean, the worldwide flood that the Biblical account is based on occured only a matter 10,000 years ago or so. The dinosaurs were extinct long before that.

You do realize that Leviathan and Behemoth are both demons, right? They are defined as demon generals in Catholic demonology, actually.

I don't think Revelation is the best book to be using in this case...

10, 000 years ago? most dont realize that carbon dating is only accurate back a few thousand years (and scientist do admit this) after that its only speculation, a guessing game.

Lets look back at genesis. The Bible clearly states that all land animals and man were both created on the sixth day of creation. Many don't realize that this would also include the dinosaurs.

Maybe our earth is not as old as we are taught to believe (but thats a debate for another day...)

Job: Behemoth (was chief in the ways of God)... i really dont think god would let giant demons roam the earth.

Job: Behemoth (was chief in the ways of God)... that statement wouldn't make since if they were demons...
