last september the evolutionist community finally couldnt deny the truth any longer: the T-rex never existed. they've known it for 8 years, but their credibility was at stake. sorry guys, there's no such thing as a t-rex. look it up for yourselves.

WOW.. just WOW. I have been reading some of the quotes on this site.. great site, btw.. and I am floored by the idiocy out there. Do these people actually breathe for themselves or do they have someone with them 24/7 to remind them? Maybe that's what their "god" does?
No T-Rex, huh? I'm just shocked at the stupidity, really.
It's always amazed me that T-Rex was essentially a freak of evolution. Its direct ancestors were the ornithomimidae (gallumimis, struthiomimus and other ostrich-like dinosaurs). Other carnosaurs (Allosaurus, etc) were from a different evolutionary path: the theropods. So T-rex is actually a great example of convergent evolution! (I'm not entirely sure if this information is still relevant. I'm remembering this from a 10 year old Discover article).
In any case, I think it is disgraceful for Christians to be so ignorant of the world around them. It's not so bad that such a person is mocked for his stupidity. What makes it so shameful is that by his actions, he makes all Christians appear as fools and subsequently our beliefs as foolish. Without even understanding it, they cause more harm to the body of Christ than any of the perceived heresies they fight so diligantly against.
Tyrannosaurus Rex did, in fact, exist; several skeletons of the species have been found. The existence of Jesus, however, is not nearly so well documented and is, in fact, open to considerable doubt; in short, dinosaurs certainly existed, but it's possible that Jesus didn't.

cerebulon. You were pretty close on that one. Actually, while Tyranosaurs was a coelurosaur, it's part of the transitional family that lies between the tetanurae family and the true orithomimuses. So in short, the tyrannosaurs are a transitional group that didn't quite evolve into the bird mimics and instead found their own niche as top predatory/scavanger. But all carniviourus dinosaurs belong to the theropod order.
As for you tismyrock

You're right, there is no such thing as T-Rex. Well, not a living one. They've been extinct for 65 million years.
However, the big fella sure as heck did exist back in the day when the planet's inhabitants were either too dumb or too smart to invent gods. And I'd like to know which "evolutionist community" suddenly denied the existence of the T.Rex back in September 2002. I know it's been almost ten years, but I think I'd have remembered.
tismycock & all his ilk: still in that river in Egypt about the fact that we Atheists have the evidence. We win .
Your 'God' never existed; we've known for far more than eight years, but your credibility was at stake nine years ago.
Sorry guys (no we're not! XP ), there's no such thing as your 'God'. See for yourselves.
And as Lewis Black pointed out, one word:
"Fossils"
Not Noahs Ark, Jesus' Cross, ark of the covenant or dreamed up bullshit. Evidence.
Now we all know evidence, actual physical proof of something existing or having existed means nothing to you people when it collides with your myth but "there's no such thing as a t-rex. look it up for yourselves" is a lie. The evidence does exist. As where: YOU HAVE NOTHING!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
