God creates and populates the world with lots and lots of massive dinosaurs for 180 million years, and didn't bother to tell anyone in his ghost written autobiography🤔

They're trying to work around that by saying the Behemoth and Leviathan were dinosaurs.

It didn't mention the dodo bird either. Get out of town... He must have been proud of and happy with his dinosaurs, he kept them all around for 180 million years. Much longer than poxy humans. I think the answer you are looking for, is the people that made the bible up weren't aware of the existence of dinosaurs. Ps. Dodos were dinosaurs, all birds are. |

By that argument, the Bible should have been about the Adromeda Galaxy.
As an aside, if all birds are dinosaurs, doesn't that mean the Bible discusses dinosaurs?

More importantly, are there any discussions of raccoons?

We've only known birds are dinosaurs relatively recently. The people who wrote the bible were not even aware dinosaurs ever existed... Which is why they didn't include them in their 'creation' myth. |

It does mention dinosaurs in the Apocrypha--The Book of Fred.

Give an old tooth to a team of paleontologists and they can fabricate an entire dinosaur skeleton from it.
Fossilized tracks indicate the existence of large reptilian creatures, however. Maybe they were dinosaurs, or maybe they were something else. In any case, dinosaur is a modern word. Seems like it wasn't coined until the 19th Century.

I remember when I was way younger I had a friend whon said something along the lines of "God shrunk the dinosaurs and today we call them lizards!". I thought that was a rather odd claim to make.

They must've really pissed off god, so he probably didn't even want to give them a mention. I mean, God threw an exploding rock at the planet in order to get rid of them...flooding the earth, in contrast, seems like kind of a lite sentence.

Yes, we've had a lot of lies and deception since my time, and your thread is proof that it's still hanging on, but more tenuously that it was a few years ago.  |

If it was, he would have said to Satchmo or whoever wrote bits of his book "Hey! Hey youse! Behave yersens. Look what I did to my last creations that got on my tits. Big fucking space rock. Consider yersens telt the noo". |

The fact that, as Erjen already noted, the word 'dinosaur' is fairly new in origin may also have something to do with also...?  |

God preferred to carpet bomb punishment onto the world as opposed to precise, laser-guided divine justice. |
