Jakesmith1995: "Can somebody please explain dinosaur bones to me? Please?"
REPLY: Here are a few facts we need to bring to bear in answering your question, Jakesmith1995:
1. The meaning of 'dinosaur', which I think is derived from the Greek or Roman for 'terrible lizard'
2. Using that definition, it could be argued that some dinosaurs exist today e.g. the iguana or the komodo dragon
3. How do you get dinosaur bones? Only if a dinosaur, or parts of a dinosaur, have been buried instantaneously, or near instantaneously
4. How come huge dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurus Rex, over 60 feet tall, have been buried? How come, in addition, we find massive 'dinosaur graveyards' - fossils of hundred of dinosaurs buried and crushed, all close together, and availabe for us to see today as fossils? There is really only one answer. A massive Flood-type event. Noah's Flood fits the evidence perfectly
5. All radiometric dating other than carbon dating is pseudo-science, based on up to 14 unprovable assumptions, and full of the most massive contradictions. Carbon-dating is only reasonably reliable up to around 5,000 years ago. There is no basis for dating dinosaur bones at any older than 5,000 years
6. On top of all that, DNA has been found in dinosaur bones. I hardly think DNA could have survived 145 million years.
CONCLUSION
Dinosaur bones are the result of Noah's flood.
Dinosaur footprints appear in zones of sedimentary rock which suggest that they were running fast trying to escape the rising floodwaters of Noah's Flood. They were running in a medium approximating to setting concrete, hence their preservation for us to view today.
If this does not answer your question, please post again
