If the earth according to bible is 4k-8k years old, did dinosaur ever existed??

No one knows if dinosaurs existed, what we know is that fossils of dinosaur bones exist.  The sensible explanation is that dinosaurs did exist and their bones became fossils, but why do you care about what is sensible?  According to the bible the earth was created in 6 days, that is wrong to.  The only time the bible is right is by accident.  Snakes use to talk in the bible.  You have to admit the bible leaves a lot out.  Like if Adam and Eve had 2 sons, and no daughters, where did Cain and Abel's wives come from?

About 250 million yrs.\n\nOne lap ago was the age of the dinosaurs.

Actually, there's a very simple explanation.\n\nDinosaur fossils have been around for tens of millions of years.  They include fossilized bones and teeth, but also fossilized impressions of skin and footprints.  \n\nThousands of years ago, our ancestors stumbled uppon such fossils just as we do today.  They knew nothing about bones turning to rock and they certainly had no idea about the age of these things.  The fossils could have been a month old or a decade.  Still, they never saw any living dinosaurs.\n\nThey made the best assumption that they could - there were huge lizard beasts that used to be common but now were rare.  All of them - some with feet, some without, some with wings, some without - got lumped together, thrown into the blender of folklore and came out as dragons.\n\nAnd since dinosaur fossils are everywhere on earth, dragon myths are everywhere as well.\n\nNow, doesn't that make sense?

The Earth is 4,570,000,000 years old, approximately; though many Creationists think it to be only 6000 "without proof otherwise" they are wrong: we have proven it using gravitational measurements of other planets, measurements of solar brightness over time, radioactive dating, continental drift, and many other factors. If you want to  force religion on people, don't do it in a SCIENCE forum! You will only cause heated debates and great offense from both sides.

Check out the source below, there are great animations there as well as the following information:\n\nThe origin of the Earth\nThe age of the Earth was once, and still is, a matter great debate. In 1650 Archbishop Ussher used the Bible to calculate that the Earth was created in 4004BC. Later on in the mid-nineteenth century Charles Darwin believed that the Earth must be extremely old because he recognised that natural selection and evolution required vast amounts of time. \n\nIt wasn't until the discovery of radioactivity that scientists began to put a timescale on the history of the Earth. Rocks often contain heavy radioactive elements which decay over long periods of time, the decay is unaffected by the physical and chemical conditions and different elements decay at different rates (These rates are slow and half-lifes of several hundred million years are not uncommon)\n\nThroughout this century the race has been on to discover the oldest rocks in the world. The oldest volcanic rock found so far has been dated at 3.75 billion years old, but this is not the whole story. Meteorites created at the same time as the Earth hit us all the time, radioactive dating shows that they are about 4.55 billion years old.\n\nTHE EARLY ATMOSPHERE\n\nThe present composition of the atmosphere is: 21% OXYGEN \n 78% NITROGEN \n 0.04% CARBON DIOXIDE \n ~0.9% ARGON \n\nThe atmosphere wasn't like this when the Earth was created over 4½ billion years ago.\n\nTHE FIRST BILLION YEARS\n\nThe Earth's surface was originally molten, as it cooled the volcanoes belched out massive amounts of CARBON DIOXIDE, STEAM, AMMONIA and METHANE. There was NO OXYGEN. The STEAM condensed to form water which then produced shallow seas. \n\nEvidence points to bacteria flourishing  3.8 billion years ago so this means that life got under way about 700 million years after the Earth was created. Such early forms of life existed in the shallow oceans close to thermal vents, these vents were a source of heat and minerals. \n\nTHE NEXT BILLION YEARS\n\nThese primitive life forms then took the next evolutionary step and started to PHOTOSYNTHESISE (using sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water to food energy and oxygen). This was an important turning point in Earth history because the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere was being converted to oxygen. \n\nThese green plants went on producing oxygen (and removing the CO2).  \nMost of the carbon from the carbon dioxide in the air became locked up in sedimentary rocks as carbonates and fossil fuels. Carbon dioxide also dissolved into the oceans. \nThe ammonia and methane in the atmosphere reacted with the oxygen.  \nNitrogen gas was released, partly from the reaction between ammonia and oxygen, but mainly from living organisms such as denitrifying bacteria. (remember that nitrogen is a very unreactive gas and it has built up slowly).  \n\nTHE LAST 2½ BILLION YEARS OR SO\n\nAs soon as the oxygen was produced by photosynthesis it was taken out again by reacting with other elements (such as iron).This continued until about 2.1 billion years ago when the concentration of oxygen increased markedly. As oxygen levels built up and then . . . . . . \n\nThe ozone layer was formed which started to filter out harmful ultraviolet rays. This allowed the evolution of new living organisms in the shallow seas.

both are right.. in science studies, they only proved that dinosaurs came first. but in the bible, we cant question it bec its gods words

The Earth is assumed to be about 4.6 billion years old, and unlike what everyone else said, it's not based solely on anything contained on Earth, including carbon dating. The oldest solid material found on Earth is about 4.1 billion years.\n\nThe guess -- and that's all it is, a guess -- is based on the rate of radiological decay of material on Earth and in meteorites found on Earth and around the solar system.\n\nIf you assume that the entire universe is formed from a common pool of matter (the essence of the Big Bang theory is that all material in the universe came from a single, supercondensed source that exploded); if you assume that therefore, all the matter in the universe has been equally distributed in all directions; if you assume that the rates of decay in all radiological material in the universe are consistent regardless of time, their position in the universe, etc.; then you can derive, by comparing the same kind of radiological material from celestial bodies that were not formed in our solar system, bodies that were part of our solar system when it formed, and that material now on Earth, the age that the Earth must be at the time it began to take solid form.\n\nThe paticular materials used to get that age is Lead-206 / Lead-207, which are the products of decay in Uranium-238.\n\nThis is further supported by temperature measurements of the universe and the evidence of background radiation from the timing of the Big Bang, which is assumed to have occurred about 15 billion years ago; given the rate of expansion of the universe visible to us, and the rate of change in both the speed of that expansion, the temperature of the universe and the density of space, we can verify the assumptions of the Earth's age to be within the estimation of a "young Earth" of 4.6 billion years old.\n\nAlso, to the person who said "The Bible": If you derive the history of the Earth from the Bible, as countless theological scholars have done through extensive research, it's about 6,000 years old; no scholarly Biblical research places the age of Earth at more than 10,000 years old.\n\nIf you want to believe that, in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, that's fine. But you should at least agree with your evidence before citing it.

Dinosaurs are mentioned in the Bible, I will tell you where but first before Noah’s flood people live to be very old for example: From Genesis\n“{5:21} And Enoch lived sixty and five years and begat\nMethuselah: {5:22} And Enoch walked with God after he\nbegat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and\ndaughters: {5:23} And all the days of Enoch were three\nhundred sixty and five years: {5:24} And Enoch walked\nwith God: and he [was] not; for God took him. {5:25} And\nMethuselah lived an hundred eighty and seven years, and\nbegat Lamech: {5:26} And Methuselah lived after he begat\nLamech seven hundred eighty and two years, and begat sons\nand daughters: {5:27} And all the days of Methuselah were\nnine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died.\n\nSo you see life spans were very long, now let’s look at animals of today such as the Gila monster, alligators and crocodiles. They all grow as long as they live, the alligator can live to be 80 years old and grow up to 35 feet long. Now lets think how big they would be if they lived 800 years, they would be lets say a “terrible lizard” wow imagine that, that’s exactly what the word dinosaur means. After Noah’s flood God says man time will be three score and ten years, 70 years.\nNo let me show you the dinosaur in the Bible God is speaking to Job.\nJob 40:15 “Look now at the behemoth, which I made along with you; He eats grass like an ox.\n40:16 See how his strength is in his hips and his power is in his stomach muscles.\n40:17 He moves his tail like a cedar; the sinews of his thighs are tightly knit.\n40:18 His bones are like beams of bronze, his ribs like bars of iron.\n\nSome foot notes in Bibles say that the behemoth is an alligator but I don’t know of an alligator that eats grass, other versions say it’s a hippopotamus but have you ever seen a picture of a hippopotamus it has a very small tail and couldn’t be mistaken for a cedar.\nOther Bibles say that is “A large animal, exact identity unknown.” To me there is no doubt that what God is describing is a dinosaur.

It depend if you are a religions person or believe in facts. Me, as a geologist I believe in facts and science.\nThe earth forms 4.6 billions years ago. How did we know? By using the radioactive decay method. \nNobody really knows how it form but you can get differrent references. Try historical geology books. \nEarth solidifies around 3 billion years ago, how? From the dated rocks namely Banded Iron Deposits. Life began at PreCambrain era. Meaning 512 millions years ago. Dinosaurs came to life at least 100 million years ago and died 65 miilion years ago because of  a comet hitting the earth.\nActually there are a lot more happend but for your satisfaction try to look for a Historical geology book. A very interesting book.

It doesn't.  The dinosaurs existed millions of years before mankind. They died off around 65 million years ago.

I believe it is about 6,000 years old, based on a plain sense reading of the Scriptures alone.  The Bible also explains dinosaurs very well. Dinosaurs are land animals. Land animals were created on Day 6, thus dinosaurs were created on the same day as Man, and Man walked with dinosaurs originally. The dinosaurs, like all the others, were vegetarian in their diet. There was no death before the fall, and all ate plants and fruits. The sin of Adam changed many things, and perhaps carnivory began after the fall. Two of each kind of dinosaur went up the Ark (the rest died in the flood waters), they left the Ark, and many went extinct like any other animal that has gone extinct. We have stories and legends of men dueling and killing monsters or dragons which are most likely based on the encounters with surviving dinosaurs. You won’t find the word “dinosaur” in our Bibles because it was a word invented in 1842, after the Bible was translated into English. Instead we have words like Behemoth and Leviathan which are descrined in detail in Job. And when dinosaur bones are being dug up, there are no tell tale labels about how old they are. In fact, scientists have found red blood cells and muscle tissue when they cut opened the T-Rex fossils. The implication of this finding is that the fossils aren’t millions of years old.

your question sounds less like a question and more like a rant against the people you're asking to answer it. I suppose it is crazy to think that God created dinosaurs as well as the rest of the world.  I mean, if I'm brave enough to believe God made an entire universe out of nothing, why are dinosaurs so hard to add to the equation?  \nand there are Christians who believe in the day age theory, or theistic evolution. Ancient Hebrew, which the creation story was written in, is very poetic, and can be difficult to translate exactly/literally. So when they refer to days, some scholars say a day could refer to any period of time, such as an age, one thousand years, etc.  \nand Christians aren't the only ones capable of being narrowminded. you don't sound like you accept other peoples' right to believe something different than you and still be intelligent humans. that's called hypocrisy.  I'm christian, and I respect your ability to believe something different, even if I think you're wrong. and I don't immediate assume you're stupid for doing so.  so I guess you're in the same club as the ones you criticize.

before 4570 million years !!!!

its only like 6,000 years old because it has been about 2000 years since Jesus came to earth and about 4,000 years before God created the world and the universe check with some bible experts
