Apparently, Noah took dinosaurs on the ark…
May 5, 2008No, seriously. I’ve found a website that claims to look at historical/archeological evidence as well as biblical (?) evidence that Noah took dinosaurs on the ark. Check it out…
http://christiananswers.net/dinosaurs/j-ark1.html
It claims that since the Bible tells us that “Pairs of all creatures that have the breath of life in them came to Noah and entered the ark” (Genesis 7:15), then dinosaurs “must” have been included. The author of the website also goes on to explain (for those of us who haven’t yet thought this through, obviously) that Noah probably took young dinosaurs, since it would have been foolish of him to waste space on the ark with fully grown adult dinosaurs. And of course, Noah probably only took a carefully selected species of each main dinosaur type, which is probably why dinosaurs didn’t get back to the same kind of numbers they had experienced before the flood.
In fact, why let my paraphrasing cause you to miss out on this valuable educational information…here’s a direct quote from the website:
“Perhaps God just included the basic types of dinosaurs He first created; not every variety that had developed since Creation. Young dinosaurs would be small and easier to care for and would use less food. It would have been foolish to fill up space on the Ark with the oldest, biggest adults.”
The website also goes on to talk about man’s sinful nature and the fact that the final few dinosaurs were probably made extinct because of humans hunting them either for meat or for sport.
So, he says, his groundbreaking realisation calls for serious changes to the world’s erratic teaching in schools about the extinction of the dinosaurs.
Hmmm…
(I don’t come across as skeptical, do I?)
Ever saw figures of Dinoglyfs & Dinolits documented by man in the historical era:

I’m well aware of them, but it doesn’t mean dinosaurs were on the ark, does it?
at work we sometimes get emails from people wanting us to publish their books. one lady outlined the children’s book she had written about noah’s ark.
she was a very lovely lady and very sincere – but her sincerity did make me giggle at points -here is an extract from her story outline:
‘Noah has a tender, albeit distant, relationship with the Behemoth (a Diplodocus or something similar) and the Leviathan (a Dragon). He has many one-sided conversations with them, and is very sad when God tells him that he has to leave them behind – they may not go on the ark.’
so according to her story they didn’t quite make it on the ark….!!!
