When I was a kid I was really interested in Dinosaurs but the only info I could get on them was from an evolutionary perspective (which is essentially non-information), so I lost interest, but reading the literature of Christian scientists is like a breath of fresh air, and has restored my interest.

I can't put my finger on it, but something is just "off" about this quote. It's too pat, too perfect ...
...I'm thinking it's a Poe.
On the other hand, you can never be sure ...
Ahh, deviantART, that ever-reliable source of objective, rational information about the Universe... NOT! Do you realize, jmsnooks, that "Xtian scientist" is a contradiction in terms?
"When I was a kid I was really interested in Dinosaurs but the only info I could get on them was from an evolutionary perspective (which is essentially non-information),"
Strike one! Facts are not "non-information."
"so I lost interest,"
Strike two! Losing interest because the facts don't align well with one's preconceived notions is a sure sign of a dullard.
"but reading the literature of Christian scientists is like a breath of fresh air, and has restored my interest."
Strike three! You're out! Having interest only when fed information of one's liking regardless of the dubiousness of the sources of that information brands you as an idiot.
Next batter.

Why? Because they tell you stories from the Flintstones about Dinosaurs and humans living together?
Do you mean when you were 9, the books were too hard to comprehend, but now that you're 10, you've found an easy way out? You can read "behemoth", and make it anything you want. GEL beat me to it, rats.

IOW, "I don't like those stories! I like these stories better!"
Only your lot think that our version of Dinosaurs are not cool. In your world T-Rex eats coconuts, in ours he is a lean, sleek, murder machine...
(If they were all vegetarians why are so many of them armed to the teeth?)
I wish I had a TARDIS so I could slip us both back in time and watch you try to:
1. Breathe in the super-rich carbon dioxide atmosphere
and
2. Pet a dinosaur and feed one of the carnivorous ones an apple
I love this fucking line he wrote underneath his art:
The point is Christians do not need to be ashamed of a literal interpretation of Genesis, Dinosaurs and man have always lived together, and still do in some parts of the world.
Go back to fucking Alaska, Sarah Palin. Better yet, why not go live wherever dinosaurs are still alive and fuck off already? I'm sure a nutjob like you'd have no problem finding the place.
YOU CAN'T LOSE INTEREST IN DINOSAURS!!!!! DINOSAURS ARE UNIVERSALLY AND INFINITELY COOL!!! sorry for the all caps, I just needed to get my point across. really though, how can you "lose interest" in dinosaurs? they're just the coolest living beings ever to have lived on earth. Even if you don't buy the evolution thing, they're still amazing. if anything, they would be even cooler if you were a young-earth creationist because then you can imagine dinos and humans living together and probably fighting each other. The one thing that could possibly make it cooler would be fighter jets. In conclusion, I haven't slept in over 24 hours.
What kid bother itself with whether it's valid information or not? For a kid, fairy tales and biology books are just as interesting (if they have lots of pictures in them, and easy-to-read text). That's part of why it's so easy to brainwash kids...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
