Question
Thank you for your reply.  I am a christian, though also a geologist.  I've never quite understood this aspect, yet would not dismiss it in an instant as "myth."

Best regards
Paul

Could you please give me your understanding of this:  If man brought sin into the world, and up until that point, the lion and lamb could sit together, how come the dinosaurs used to eat each other, the dinosaurs being on the earth long before man?  Thanks, in anticipation.
Answer -
Paul,

Presupposing your own religious belief in the mythological evolutionary time scale rather negates your question. I am sure you are perfectly aware that there is counter interpretations of the evidence pointing to a young earth and the contemporaneity of man and dinosaur.

All I can offer you is the admonition that the blood of Christ Jesus cleanses us from all sin, believe on his name and thou shalt be saved. Possibly in the future this knowledge may be of aid to you.

Answer
Paul,

I am not a scientist nor technically knowledgable to a degree where I can debate the evidence one way or the other. However, I am no fool and know with out doubt that there is a God and that he is the God of the Bible. Knowing God's word is the first requirement to the study of any subject.

Evolution is a religion, it is taken on faith; the hope that there is no God. Though many try and claim that it is neutral to the question of God, it and the Bible are mutually exclusive. To accept one is to reject the other. The acceptance of evolution has diminished all moral authority, without God there is no right or wrong, good or evil. All that is left to man is desire and opinion and whomever has the power to force his on others.

There is much information concerning creation science on the Internet. I would suggest you check out some of the sites. However, Even some of these go beyond fact and hypothesize erroneously not knowing or holding to Scriptures. I hold to the Bible, Authorize Version of 1611, King James Version. It is the only standard to go by.

If you have trusted in the death, burial and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ and have a desire to study all things in the light of his word then feel free to correspond. I would enjoy the conversation.

Your Servant In Christ Jesus,
