Dinosaur?

Here is a combo deal of questions and answers for evolutionary scientists, and what the Bible has to say about dinosaurs. What does the word "dinosaur" mean exactly? When did that word come into existance? What were large creatures like dinosaurs called before that word existed? Here are some excellent passages from the Bible that deal with those questions from a creation point of view. Nehemiah 2:13 "And I went out by night by the gate of the valley, even before the dragon well, and to the dung port, and viewed the walls of Jerusalem, which were broken down, and the gates thereof were consumed with fire." Job 30:29 "I am a brother to dragons, and a companion to owls." Job 40:15 "Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox." Job 41:19-21 "Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap out. Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron. His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth." Psalm 44:19 "Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death." Psalm 74:13 & 14 "Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters. Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gavest him to be meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness." Psalm 91:13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet." Psalm 104:26 "There go the ships: there is that leviathan, whom thou hast made to play therein." Psalm 148:7 "Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:" Isaiah 13:22 "And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry in their desolate houses, and dragons in their pleasant palaces: and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged." Isaiah 27:1 "In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea." Isaiah 34:13 "And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be an habitation of dragons, and a court for owls." Isaiah 35:7 "And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes." There are many more times dragons or the "dinosaurs" of the Bible are mentioned, and I will be telling of those in a future post. Take time to read the Bible you will find a great deal of good information about our earth, and yourself.

Balance in Natural Science

According to what I have learned about evolution, caios is the solution to bringing about order and advancement of all things. One part of the theory is that it all started with a "Big Bang." What was there before the "Big Bang?" As life evolves on the earth into different animals, this evolution continues in animals by mutations in their genetic codes over time turning them into different animals. The reason and need for these mutations is because of dramatic changes in the environment in which they live requiring them to change for survival. The eventual "extinction" of the old type of animals is the result of the "survival of the fittest." Scientific theories such as these that make up the whole of the "Theory of Evolution" are suposed to bring about a greater balance to our natural world.

Let us then explore some questions to the areas of science that have been proven over and over again. I would like for someone from the scientific community to answer these questions with as much detail as possible. What is the natural tendency of objects (living or non-living) to do over time? What would happen if just one planet in our solar system were to be thrown off balance in it's orbit, even if just by the tiniest bit? What happens to an animal or plant when it's genetic code is changed in any way? What happens to the earth if it gets hit by a meteor that knocks it just the tiniest bit closer to or further away from the sun? Ok that should be enough questions to allow for some good discussion about how evolution works or doesn't. I await your answers, so that everyone reading is able to have some food for thought.
