OK. But I was hoping for people that believe in common decent to support the assertion that large insects and man could not live in the same conditions. I'm finding a little bit of information on this, but not much. Where is this assertion coming from?
The world *is* created and still being created . . . through evolution.

Since you dont believe Genesis, heres another revelation for you:
So now you're betting on croc for leviathan?
:rotfl:
Why do so many of you have such insistence these passages must not refer to dinos? You do realize that even if they were some kind of remnant population of dinosaurs, it wouldn't disprove evolution, right?
No, it's not.
Great! The Bible says the world was created in six days.
Wow, TracerBullet, this is the first post I've ever seen from you that is a good post. You make a good point, and this is something I'll have to look into more.
I am asking for pictures or other evidence from the fossil record. Scripture mentions lions and sheep and wolves and horses and you can find me an example of each of those animals thus the real world is in line with what scripture says. Therefore, you should be able to find is an example of the leviathan as described in Job.
As with behemoth, we don't know exactly which creature is being described, but it does seem like a dinosaur. *With Leviathon, again we don't know which creature is being described but here arw some suggestions.
Better take a look at Job's description again:
| Job 41 12 “I will not fail to speak of Leviathan’s limbs, its strength and its graceful form. 13 Who can strip off its outer coat? Who can penetrate its double coat of armor[b]? 14 Who dares open the doors of its mouth, ringed about with fearsome teeth? 15 Its back has[c] rows of shields tightly sealed together; 16 each is so close to the next that no air can pass between. 17 They are joined fast to one another; they cling together and cannot be parted. 18 Its snorting throws out flashes of light; its eyes are like the rays of dawn. 19 Flames stream from its mouth; sparks of fire shoot out. 20 Smoke pours from its nostrils as from a boiling pot over burning reeds. 21 Its breath sets coals ablaze, and flames dart from its mouth. 22 Strength resides in its neck; dismay goes before it. 23 The folds of its flesh are tightly joined; they are firm and immovable. 24 Its chest is hard as rock, hard as a lower millstone. 25 When it rises up, the mighty are terrified; they retreat before its thrashing. 26 The sword that reaches it has no effect, nor does the spear or the dart or the javelin. 27 Iron it treats like straw and bronze like rotten wood. 28 Arrows do not make it flee; slingstones are like chaff to it. 29 A club seems to it but a piece of straw; it laughs at the rattling of the lance. 30 Its undersides are jagged potsherds, leaving a trail in the mud like a threshing sledge. 31 It makes the depths churn like a boiling caldron and stirs up the sea like a pot of ointment. 32 It leaves a glistening wake behind it; one would think the deep had white hair. 33 Nothing on earth is its equal— a creature without fear. 34 It looks down on all that are haughty; it is king over all that are proud.” |
Very good!
None of those possibilities breathed fire or had interlocking armor on their back that were so tight even air could not get through thus, they fail to meet the description that Job provided. We have a significant amount dinosaur fossils yet nothing in those fossils even remotely resembles what Job described. A few folks have thrown up a few dinosaurs they feel might be a behemoth but nobody can produce anything that even remotely resembles what is, for lack of a better term, a fire breathing dragon. That is a problem for you.
