Question
Hi Eric,

Seems there are some folks out there, mostly fundamentalists, who insist there is a body of evidence in the bible(old testament) proving that man and dinosaur co-existed. Sounds rather doubtful to me, but what do you think?

Thanks very much

Rob

Answer
Greetings Rob,

I do not find any support for biblical statements regarding man and dinosaurs co-existing, unless "leviathon" and the "behemoth" were dinosaurs. There's not much information about this subject in the bible, so this is my best answer I can give.

Hello to you! I love discussing many doctrinal subjects regarding God`s rationale for creating us like he did and our value to him. Also, I enjoy discussing things from the Atheist`s perspective too. I take the view that the Bible is not inerrant, that it has errors which are easy to prove, but I also believe that much in the Bible is God`s Word to humanity.

Experience

I have spent over 30 years studying the Bible and related materials. Though I am a layman, I feel confident about my knowledge of the scriptures and welcome all points of view and will treat you with the respect you deserve.
