Did Jesus Ride on a Dinosaur? Oh, my…
Does the Bible say that Jesus rode on a dinosaur?
That question might sound completely ridiculous to some of you, but others among you have heard of this and thought, Wow, those Christians sure are stupid.
And, why shouldn’t you think that?
A saddled Triceratops is on display at the Creationist Museum. Why? What does this have to do with Christianity? Wait, it gets better.
Jesus probably rode on a dinosaur? Since when? If Aristotle and other Greeks spent so much time cataloging animals, why didn’t they make up a category for the dinosaurs and describe any? If they were around in Jesus’ day, why don’t we have paintings and descriptions? We have them for every other animal.
OK, now to get my hands really dirty.
Is it possible that man once lived with dinosaurs at some point? I think it’s remotely possible in isolated incidents – but that’s not saying much . There’s a lot we don’t know, like why African tribes tell stories of a Brontosaurus, or how a T-Rex managed to have soft tissue in it’s bones after 10 million years. Not all of the questions about the universe have been answered.
Is it relevant to my faith? Not really. I don’t think being a Christian has much to do with this stuff. Christianity is about my connection to God, not dinosaurs.

I don’t think it necessarily has much to do with faith, BUT it can. For example the false teachings that God used evolution and that the world was created in anything other than a literal 6 days. If you don’t believe the literal Genesis account of creation then you don’t believe in the right God.
Did dinosaurs survive the flood, yes (see reference in Job 40:15-24). Were they still around by Jesus’ time? I sincerely doubt it. They were, for whatever God’s reasons, chosen for extinction. The fossil record screams that many of them were wiped out with the flood.
I do find it funny though that we don’t question the existence of other species who went extinct and we find their fossils… ha…
but with ridiculous stuff like that cartoon, its no wonder no one fears God. Apparently “Christians” don’t fear Him either.
Oh that they would hear His voice and tremble with Holy fear before He has all He can take of us…
I’m sorry, but what ELSE do you expect Jesus to ride???
Awesomest. Picture. Ever.
your funny. but for the wrong reasons.
