God created all creatures.

In genesis it said god made the earth in 6 days.  the hebrew word used for days is used also for a period of time, so you can conclude that god took longer than 6 literal days to create the earth. Who's to say we aren't still in the "seventh day" of gods rest from creating.  And dinosaurs and humans did co exist, a scientist in south america.  has found stones that have ancient depictions of triceratops and \nt-rex from 1000's of years ago.

As humans evolved, many phenomenon on earth could not be explained, e.g. volcanoes, planets, etc., so we created gods. We still cannot explain what happened before the big bang, so it is possible that god created this space and time (and therefore,ultimately, us).

Dinosaurs were here before Adam and Eve. The bible didn't focus on the creation of the earth. Genesis focused mainly on the creation, rise, and fall of man.

There aren't any dinosaurs in the bible. They just look back at comments about dragons and say 'See dinosaurs! We knew it all along.'. Um, no. \nBy the way, there are unicorns in the bible:\n\nNum 23:22 God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn. \n\nWell, now we all know that unicorns exist. Thank you informative and fact filled bible.

I am sure that God created the universe in only 6 "days". The question is, how long were these days? One day at that point in time could actually have spanned millions of our years. This would explain dinosaurs and evolution and a few other questions. I don't think Lucifer was banned to Hell until after Humans were made and I think he was a human who died and went to Heaven and then was bannished to Hell. He could of even walked with some of your ancestors. (Creepy, huh!)

It will make sense to say that dinosaur were first than men so man will have something to eat?, though I don't believed in such theory at least you will keep the Boy, mind a bit busier. although no to fur from the true in God creation God create everything that man will need to survive, and the final act of his perfect creation was man, and of course from his ribs, Literally?), his companion woman. so if he miss something and becomes a believer he can continue in the right path. Question, other wise I will be very careful to answer any different in case he is trying to fit some religious believed with the idea of evolution?. and/or the prehistoric era?. I don't know how old is your Son but know  a day's children's are a bit smart than the regular and ever so popular baby boomers.---- try not to allow room for him to cough you in a big lie----Remember the old  saying : "The thruth will set you free"

Ha! finally a question i can actually answer and know 100%! In the beginning, God created the earth, along with the heavens. He said it, and it was done. Pretty sweet, eh? lol...he's pretty good, made it all, in the matter of 6 days...

No the word "dinosaur" is not in the bible. Neither is kangaroo, or hippopotamus. But, check out Job 40:15-18\n15  Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. \n16  Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. \n17  He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. \n18  His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.\n\nSounds like a dinosaur to me.

Simple...God created all things...including evolution.

As it seems this question has raised yet another debate, I'd like to add my 2cents. As the father of paleoboy, and a Christian, I believe I have raised my son well. Because I have not fallen into the ignorance, as I will call it, of pre-empting God. Evolution is merely a theory, man should  not be assumed to be included in this factor. In fact, there exists more questions  of man's progress than proof of any evolution. \nThe animals however, and lower life, could have been designed by God in many numerous ways. Who are we to question the means, or claim to know as to how God works? He works, as we know, in mysterious ways! Could he not have in fact, by design, created species that could evolve and adapt to earth changes, if for no other reason, to allow clues behind for the event of man to discover, to weed out those that would choose to use this information, to disprove His existence?\nTo claim we have all the answers to the mysteries of God is to fall into ignorance as Christians. I back up my son's answer, as an open, unquestioning mind as to the works of God. Paleontology is a science, based on evidence, and a great deal of theory, which is always subject to change with newly discovered evidence.

Darwins initial theory of evolution has some truth to it, the part of adaptation is essentially true.. the part of making something out of nothing and having it evolve is false .. only the Creator can do that.. as far at the earth being billions of years old.. that is also false... dinosaurs existed with man.. if you read Job it tells you that the giant animals were in existence and not all dinosaurs were giants.. there is a lot of information out there to research concerning your question.. the first book I would suggest is the Bible... it will essentially answer all of the above question.. if that doesn't satisfy you I would suggest checking in a Christian bookstore on evolution.. Darwin had some good ideas, but his predecessors ran with it in the wrong direction.

This is a hard question though it does not say specficly that dinosaurs was created in the Bible, God did give Adam the authority to name every living creature..\n\n\n\nThe Bible refers to many the common animals we know today. The list includes lions, wolves, bears, sheep, cattle and dogs along with various kinds of birds, rodents, reptiles, and insects. What is interesting is that this extensive list includes three animals that we no longer recognize. These three are (in the original Hebrew language) tanniyn, b@hemowth (yes, it’s spelled correctly—at least as close as we can get in Roman characters), and livyathan.\n\n\nAlthough we alter the spelling of behemoth and Leviathan slightly, we still use those same words in bibles today. However, tanniyn is always translated into another word when we write it in English. Tanniyn occurs 28 times in the Bible and is normally translated “dragon.” It is also translated “serpent,” “sea monster,” “dinosaur,” “great creature,” and “reptile.” Behemoth and Leviathan are relatively specific creatures, perhaps each was a single kind of animal. Tanniyn is a more general term, and it can be thought of as the original version of the word “dinosaur.” The word “dinosaur” was originally coined in 1841, more than three thousand years after the Bible first referred to “Tanniyn.”\n\n\nBehemoth has the following attributes according to Job 40:15-24\n\n\nIt “eats grass like an ox.” \nIt “moves his tail like a cedar.” (In Hebrew, this literally reads, “he lets hang his tail like a cedar.”) \nIts “bones are like beams of bronze,\nHis ribs like bars of iron.” \n“He is the first of the ways of God.” \n“He lies under the lotus trees,\nIn a covert of reeds and marsh.” \nSome bibles and study bibles will translate the word “behemoth” as “elephant” or “hippopotamus.” Others will put a note at the edge or bottom of the page, stating that behemoth was probably an elephant or a hippopotamus. Although an elephant or hippopotamus can eat grass (or lie in a covert of reeds and marsh), neither an elephant or a hippopotamus has a “tail like a cedar” (that is, a tail like a large, tapered tree trunk). In your kid’s dinosaur book you will find lots of animals that have “tails like a cedar.”\n\nWe would expect behemoth to be a large land animal whose bones are like beams of bronze and so forth, so whatever a behemoth is, it is large. A key phrase is “He is the first of the ways of God.” This phrase in the original Hebrew implied that behemoth was the biggest animal created. Although an elephant or a hippopotamus are big, they are less than one-tenth the size of a Brachiosaurus, the largest (complete) dinosaur ever discovered.[1] A Brachiosaurus could therefore easily be described as “the first of the ways of God.”\n\n\nLeviathan has the following attributes according to Job chapter 41, Psalm 104:25,26 and Isaiah 27:1. This is only a partial listing—just enough to make the point.\n\n\n“No one is so fierce that he would dare stir him up.” \n“Who can open the doors of his face, with his terrible teeth all around?” \n“His rows of scales are his pride, shut up tightly as with a seal; one is so near another that no air can come between them; they are joined one to another, they stick together and cannot be parted.” \n“His sneezings flash forth light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning. Out of his mouth go burning lights; sparks of fire shoot out. Smoke goes out of his nostrils, as from a boiling pot and burning rushes. His breath kindles coals, and a flame goes out of his mouth.” \n“Though the sword reaches him, it cannot avail; nor does spear, dart, or javelin. He regards iron as straw, and bronze as rotten wood. The arrow cannot make him flee; slingstones become like stubble to him. Darts are regarded as straw; he laughs at the threat of javelins.” \n“On earth there is nothing like him, which is

Technically speaking, should 'God' exist, which logically is unlikely, and this deity created the planet, surely it's within its rights to destroy whatever it has created.\n\nAccording to popular Western religion, God created the earth in a similar way to, say, Leonardo da Vinci creating one of his paintings. It's known that da Vinci painted over a number of his works to create the more famous pieces we see today and nobody complains about that. If we are in fact the creations of some 'higher being' then God is perfectly within its rights to dispose of us, the dinosaurs and whatever else it may choose to create. However, since there is no evidence for or against the deity theory, the conundrum is largely a hypothetical and ultimately useless one.\n\nNevertheless, since we regard ourselves as sentient beings and the destruction of life is regarded as genocide, this would seem to indicate that God is indeed guilty. But only from our point of view.\n\nReally am gonna have to stop expressing my opinions on the internet!

No one. God is eternal. Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." The beginning of our time. Time itself was created by God - He exists outside of our realm of comprehension.

Creation was created by God. \n\nGod has provided many evidences of His existence. One of these is the testimony of His creations: “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork” (Psalm 19:1). \nHave you ever looked in awe at the night sky with its millions of stars? Or studied the intricate details of a leaf or flower? Or marveled at the miracle of a tiny new baby? These beautiful and complex creations didn’t come about by chance. They are the creations of God, your Heavenly Father. They can remind you of His existence and of His love for His children. \n\nAn ancient prophet declared: “All things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth . . . and its motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator” (Book of Mormon, Alma 30:44). \n\nIf you want to know HOW God created all of His creations you can read all about it in the Bible. It is in the Old Testament Book of Genesis in chapters one and two.\n\nGod bless you in your search for the truth.
