dinosaurs

Okay, no it doesn't. But on the Archeology proves the Bible thread, Kurious_Kathy had cited Bill Cooper's "After the Flood" (http://ldolphin.org/cooper/contents.html) as evidence for the Bible. I read the chapter on Beowulf with great interest and mounting horror. I knew creationists argued...

This is a recommendation to everyone in this Forum: If you have the chance to see "Walking With Dinosaurs" -- the live show, whether they call it "the Arena Show" or "the Live Experience" -- go see it!!! I saw the first engagement in the US in Tacoma last year, and got sooper secret advance...

While browsing the JREF forum, I found a young Earth creationist website with information concerning dinosaurs. I was amazed at the arguments being presented. I searched for a topic about this on the JREF forum and found no information supporting or discrediting it, so I decided to make my own...

This is from Malta Today, October 2007, so apologies if it's been up before. http://www.maltatoday.com.mt/2007/10/14/n5.html Can't argue with this logic....

It's quite a read. Let's cut to the chase at the end of chapter 3: To produce an effective buoyancy force on dinosaurs the Earth's atmosphere would have to be thick enough to have a density comparable to the density of water. By summing the forces acting on a typical dinosaur such as a...

The latest full episode posting at the NOVA TV program website is "The Four Winged Dinosaur" (http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/microraptor/), which concerns the controversy surrounding a late "missing link" between dinosaurs and birds uncovered in China. The "microraptor" is a small dinosaur with...

Creationists say that the discovery of dinosaur bones in Alaska that are not obviously fossilized are proof that humans and dinosaurs lived at the sane time. Organs and other tissue from these creatures have apparently been discovered. What are the scientists saying about this? I see very...

So much for funding the national parks: http://groups.google.com/group/parklandsupdate (BTW: the positions cut were a museum curator & geologist, rather than 2 paleontologists, but both worked with the fossil collections as noted). (for info on the park, see www.nps.gov/dino)

I've been reading some old threads on the subject here, and it's clear that we have some very knowledgeable amateur prehistoric reptile experts here. My own interest is long-standing but seriously lapsed - although keen from age 4 or thereabouts, my academic efforts all went into the...

http://www.canada.com/topics/news/national/story.html?id=e5123710-3333-49c3-8ab7-270433c16992&k=37675 Really big ancestor of the triceratops found in canada. Short article but with this brilliant quote, "Basically, it's a road kill. It looks like somebody ran over it in a Cretaceous Hummer."...

http://objectiveministries.org/creation/dinoexpedition.html Man and dinosaurs are contemporaries, thus proving that the Flintstone -- NOT Darwin -- is an accurate imagining of the way of the world. Of course, as the article admits, the photo is not very clear.

When a former student of mine told me he was on the road crew for this show, I looked at the title and groaned. Geez, did my student turn into a fundie and is this a creationist extravaganza? Thankfully, he didn't, and it's not. It's actually a pretty amazing display of show engineering...

So, where's oil (petroleum) come from? I was told that petroleum is basically massive quantities of organic materials, that somehow ended up 100's of miles beneath earth's surface, and there turning into the oily substance called petroleum. (Stone Oil) That always seemed weird to me. I mean, I...

Really hate to post one thread after another, but this has been bugging me for quite a while; this might have been asked before, and if so, sorry about that. A lot of Fundies like to claim that dinosaurs lived with cavemen, and that Noah even had some on the Ark. Could someone please explain...

"Honey, where is my raptor suit?"

...more or less...

Oh, please.... Good, God. They'll do ANYTHING to advance this warped world view.

http://www.reuters.com/article/domesticNews/idUSN2621240720070526 Hmm...Kentucky, isn't that the home of our new Surgeon General nominee? http://72.32.2.238/forumlive/showthread.php?p=2630595#post2630595 Then it must be true. http://www.creationmuseum.org/ is the new museum's website:

As a lay reader of evolution, I have bought into the conventional wisdom that the extinction event 65 million years ago basically wiped out the dinos. This, in turn, allowed mammals to "bloom". At least I thought that was (is?) the conventional wisdom. But this article suggests otherwise. I...

http://www.guardian.co.uk:80/g2/story/0,,1946323,00.html The aussie creator figured Australia wasn't ready for this, so it's been built in the USA instead. Have fun guys!! I guess if god IS real, then so are dragons.

Just In: Plesiosaurs Look Like Nessie! At least according to 1 AP reporter. "Five-foot-long animal would have resembled Loch Ness Monster" I think the fossil itself is worth noting. However, if one has to use myth to generate interest, interest would have been better served by saying the...

I apologize if this has been discussed before, but I just found this_thread on the Flat Earth forum and thought everyone might like to take a break from 9-11 for a bit. Enjoy. Oh, and keep in mind that dogplatter is entirely serious...

It's theorized that some dinosaurs survived the extinction and evolved into a humanoid form (like the one above), and they now manipulate people.....I think? Do real, sane people actually believe this ****? How does this link to 9/11 or Bush? Edited, breach of Rule 10. Please do not curse in...

I had to read. A Creationist museum event. "Like most natural history museums, this one has exhibits showing dinosaurs roaming the Earth. Except here, the giant reptiles share the forest with Adam and Eve." Great, Jurassic Park does exist now. And further - "Scientists say fossils and...

One of the arguments that creationists make is that there are no "transitional fossils". What about the feathered dinosaur fossils that have been discovered? Anyone know what the "there are no transitional fossils" crowd make of them? I am going to guess that they respond with a special...

I remember a little while ago when this issue was still unresolved an ornithologist called Alan Feduccia was very much of the opinion that birds were not derived from dinosaurs. It was never very clear exactly what he thought they were from. His negative argument and lack of a properly...

Another palaeontological question... We now accept that birds descended directly from dinosaurs, but are birds actually dinosaurs? What I mean is that, with modern animated reconstructions, it is very easy to see dinosaurs as very birdlike, but if birds are not dinosaurs what are the taxonomic...

Revueltosaurus skeleton unearthed at Petrified Forest upsets dinosaur tale Berkeley - The fossilized skeleton of a small crocodile relative excavated last year at Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona throws a wrench into theories of how and where the dinosaurs arose more than 210 million...

http://internet.ocii.com/~dpwozney/dinosaur.htm All evidence of the existence of dinosaurs is created by a vast conspiracy, and this man has the bold text to prove it!

They have been successfully cloned from the genes in amber, no? Maybe I'm ahead of my time with my little "save the dinos" pressure group?
