[Did dinosaurs actually exist?]
Yes, but not nessicarily on our planet. When God created it, he may have used material from other planets, and they just happened to have old bones in them.

So...what you are saying is there was a planet with dinosaurs somewhere else in the universe, but when God was making Earth he used pieces of dirt of this planet that had dinosaur bones to make the Earth? By using that logic, then this planet existed before Earth and managed to have dinosaurs inhabit it for thousands of years until they died out and become fossilized over eons. In conclusion, dinosaurs existed before God, as according to the Bible God only needed 1 day to create the universe, and the other 5 days to make Earth and its inhabitants.
.......Yep. Someone get some hungry squirrels because this guy is nuts.
When you reached up your ass to pull this little nugget of fail out, did you perchance pull out some brains too?
(can be construed two ways- 1: they have shit for brains, or- 2: they reached in so far that they somehow managed to get all the way up into the cranium)
My vote's for No. 1
I saw an episode of Star Trek once...oh, hell, LOL what? Can't do this.... i need a copious amount of alcohol, a good fuck, and... oh, hell never mind! You ever thought about becoming human? BTW, do you think a T-Rex would be good in bed ... or am I just wishing I could have shagged Marc Bolan? Pity I was too young.
So these planets that existed before Earth, were they created by some other god who predated your god? Where did the earlier god come from and where did it go? Did your god kill the earlier god, and if so did that not break one of your god's commandments?
Also, your Bible says "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth," so how were there other planets to plunder for material if Earth was created "in the beginning"?
And last but not least, were you dropped on your head as a kid? I'm guessing you were. A lot.
"When God created it, he may have used material from other planets, and they just happened to have old bones in them."
And then never bothered to mention it to anyone.
Come back when you can spell and have formulated a more reasonable idea.
"Yes, but not nessicarily on our planet."
This is truly one of the most bizarre statements I've ever seen. Anywhere.
"When God created it, he may have used material from other planets, and they just happened to have old bones in them."
Ok, ignore the above. I wrote it before I'd read this gem.
Anybody who can claim to believe Genesis 1 and Genesis 2, may as well go ahead and swallow raiu's version of Genesis 3.
This other planet...is it the one where all the water from the flood and the firmament splashed up onto?
raiu, dude, you owe me a new keyboard. Mine is clogged with snot and saliva, thanks to your little... statement... there.
"When God created it, he may have used material from other planets, and they just happened to have old bones in them."
But, but ... my fundie brother claims that Satan put those so-called "fossils" underneath the ground to fool people.
Can't you idiots even get your bullshit stories straight?
Ok, raiu, thanks to this post, you are going to hell. There are at least two reasons for this. First, you have offended your God by insinuating he isn't omnipotent (else he wouldn't have need to recycle) and omniscient (else he would have known about the bones). Second, you have just added to the Bible, which is sort of worse than any other mortal sin you can name (since you suffer punishment both in this life and afterwards). But, there are good news as well. You will be in a good company in hell, you won't have to worry about heating and food, and there will be a lot of sex there. [/fundie passing judgement]
Ohhh ... I get it. He's saying that dinosaurs lived on another planet and then they died, and then God used the old planet to create the earth so that's why we find dinosaur fossils and ...
No, actually, I don't get it. Why would God do that? Why?? There's just no reason. And it contradicts the sort of Biblical literalism someone would need to adhere to in order to come up with this answer. Because the universe wouldn't have been made in seven days, let alone the earth if there were creatures that survived for millions of years on other planets.
And "nessicarily"?
That's what I'll name my new religion. And we'll worship the Loch Ness Monster who cares for all of us that she came from space and then, millions of years later, rose from the dead. Nessie cares about you! She cares about you that if you don't have faith in the Loch Ness Monster, she will be forced to eat you and you will spend all of eternity burning in her stomach acid.
Genesis 1:1: In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Your own big book of fairy tales says that there were no other planets from which the magic sky pixie could have used materials to make the earth. Either you believe in it, or you don't.
Sounds like someone read a lot of Hithhikers guide to the galaxy (where earth was assembled at the huge planetyards of Magratea)...
well, I can assure you that Magratea (you don´t need to call the Magrateans "god") only used previously unused material to create earth, after it got the order from the mice
;)
Well the Mormons do teach that dinosaurs roamed the earth until God wiped them out to make room for his creation. Maybe rain here is a Mormon?
Edit: meh, I was beaten to it.
I smell a Molly Mormon!
Seriously, this is a Mormon explanation for dinosaur bones. Earth was created from other dead planets by Heavenly Father and that's where all these fossils and such come from.
Don't quote this as offcial Mo doctrine because it's not; This "theory" has been passed around for a few decades in the Mormo culture.
"When God created it, he may have used material from other planets, and they just happened to have old bones in them."
Which kinda fucks up the whole Genesis thing, eh? If that was the case, why wasn't this 'fact' that God had created life on other planets beforehand pointed out in the Bible? Or even that he'd done so before he'd created the Earth, hmmmmmm? Because that would again fuck up Genesis. And thus the whole basis of your 'beliefs'.
So, the dinosaurs existed before God created man? Does this mean the dinosaurs came into existence naturally, then died, and then God used their planet to make Earth?
If so, you just invalidated all of the Genesis account, and lent credence to evolutionary theory and abiogenesis.
So, this theory, however crazy, is fine with me.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
