Dinos were real in the bible. they were called dragons. They did exist but only a few thousand years ago.
You need millions of years for your "THEORY" to have happened and that's simply not the case.
You people see only what you want to see. That's not reality!

It's been several years since I read the Bible cover to cover, but I still know it fairly well given my faith (or lack thereof).
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but is it just me, or were there no damn dragons in the bible?
@Polymerase there was this seven headed dragon. But he/she/it hasn't shown up as of yet.
And if dinosaurs lived only a couple of thousand of years ago, why haven't we got any detailed paintings, etches of even sketches of a tyrannosaurus "dining" on a small village?

He probably means the creature descriphed in book of Job.
At least that what fundies like to refer to when speaking of dragons.
Dragons do exist. They live on the island of Komodo an its surrounding islands. They are decidedly not dinosaurs, they do not fly, and they do not breathe fire. I also doubt that anyone who wrote any part of the Bible had ever heard of them. I don't think any of the creatures described in the Bible resemble either dinosaurs or dragons.
Dragons are mentioned in passing in several areas in the Bible (Isaiah 27:1 and Psalms 74:13-14 for example).
That being said, I seriously doubt the writers meant T. Rex or some other dinosaurs, since they'd never have known about them.
Blame Hovind for this twit.
Dragons are mentioned in the bible:
32 The great dragon Vermithrax did rise from the lake of fire for it hungered for the flesh of virgins 33 And the beasts head was crowned with many horns 34 And when it found its young slain, the great beast let forth a mighty wail, for it was the last of its kind 35 And the beast did take unto the sky on leathern wings, and cast its fury down upon the townspeople 36 And from its mouth did issue a great stream of fire that set alight the straw in the fields 37 But the ashes of the Great Sage were taken to the lake of fire, and there he did awake from his slumber as like the phoenix 38 And the Great Sage did call forth lightning from the Heavens that did strike the great dragon Vermithrax 39 And the great dragon did grasp the sage in its mighty claws and did carry him to the skies where it sought to tear him assunder 40 But Lo! That guy from LA Law did crush the magic amulet and the beast was destroyed with a mighty blast and its offal did rain upon the village 41 And the king of the land did plunge his sword into the carcass and say unto the people "Hearken unto me! For I have slain th great beast and so spared your lands!"
Book of Disney 12:32-41

1) Judging by your emphasis of the word "theory", I'm going to take a wild guess and say you don't understand the meaning of "theory" in a scientific context. Hint: it doesn't mean "wild guess".
2) Any evidence that the Earth has only been around a few thousand years? Because everything we know about geology and atomic physics tells us otherwise.

Mirror, mirror, on the wall ... who's the most delusional of all?
"That's not reality!"
How would you know?
It's under the "You Fail Biology Forever" index for a reason.
Edit: and the theory has clearly happened, or we wouldn't be discussing it. The question is whether events have occurred in accordance with the theory of evolution by natural selection, and all evidence points to the conclusion that they have.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
