Wow.

I got a chuckle out of their claim that dinosaurs were included on the
Ark. Just how big was that boat, anyway?


Yes. The usual explanation I've heard other places for why there are no
more dinosaurs is they missed the boat....

The ignorance of religion in these science ngs is just stunning.
Doesn't anyone know what metaphors or symbols are?

The stories of genesis and the flood are merely poetic visions
meant to describe the interdependencies within the natural
world, and the role catastrophic change plays in nature.

Are you disputing the truth of either of those ancient assertions?
You'd be a fool if you do. Your only difficulty seems to lie
in the way this philosophy is expressed. Through stories, allegory
and symbols.  No thinking religious person takes these stories
literally.

I keep telling you,jonathan, you need to come here to the bible belt. They *DO* take these stories literally. My point of posting the link was: this is not 'Museum of Religous History'. It is the 'Museum of Earth History'--


If people are erecting museums with fossils in them, and proporting to show how dinosaurs fit into the biblical creation story by including them on the Ark, geoscientists have a stake in knowing the museums exist.
