What is the creationist belief on dinosaurs?

 

Nothing close to universal on this.

There is a creature in the book of Job that sounds a lot like a dinosaur, or even what we would imagine as a dragon. I do know that much.

What about water dwelling dinos?

 

No idea, again not something I dwell on a lot or worry about. What's happened happened, and it doesn't really change my faith in Christ. When exactly and how dinosaur's died isn't a key fact to what Jesus Christ did for me.

I'm a creationist and I don't know, if that tells you anything.

Would this boil down to every specific species? For instance, were there both the African Elephant (Loxodonta africana) and the Asiatic Elephant (Elephas maximus) on board? Or was it just two "elephants" and the species diverged post-flood?

 

Not really sure, I've honestly not thought it out that far. As I stated not something I've fleshed out a lot or dwelled on, just some general thoughts I've had in passing over the years.

If we take the Creation Museum as the voice for the creationist beliefs then dinosaurs were indeed on the ark and also around when humans were.

Fair enough. I can remember actually asking these kind of questions in Sunday School.

There were actually more than two of every animal. Seven of every kind of clean animal & bird were to be taken.

I'd need to know the specific dimensions of the ark to determine the feasibility of it.

 

There's no feasible way to have one, let alone two, of every species on the ark given the dimensions given in the Bible.

Do you remember the dimensions given in the Bible?

God is the Creator of the world and the humans that inhabit it. I personally believe in seven days, but not dogmatic about that viewpoint.

What are "clean" animals and birds?

 

I'll pose the same question to you as I did to HT. How literal do you take the two of every animal? I'll use the same elephant example.

Seven days, as in how we currently perceive a day?

Do you remember the dimensions given in the Bible?

 

450 feet long, 75 feet wide, 45 feet high.
