And then there&#039;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ocii.com/~dpwozney/dinosaurs.htm&quot;&gt;the worst kind of idiots who claimed dinosaurs never existed&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#8230;&lt;/p&gt;

						 <p>There are idiots like Ken Ham who claims dinosaurs once lived with humans. Never mind the complete absence of human and dinosaur fossils together in the fossil record. And then there's <a href="http://www.ocii.com/~dpwozney/dinosaurs.htm">the worst kind of idiots who claimed dinosaurs never existed</a>&#8230;</p> <blockquote> <p>What would be the motivation for such a deceptive endeavor? Obvious motivations include trying to prove evolution, trying to disprove or cast doubt on the Christian Bible and the existence of the Christian God, and trying to disprove the “young-earth theory”. Yes, there are major political and religious ramifications.</p> <p>The dinosaur concept could imply that if God exists, he may have tinkered with his idea of dinosaurs for awhile, then perhaps discarded or became tired of this creation and then went on to create man. The presented dinosaur historical timeline could suggest an imperfect God who came up with the idea of man as an afterthought, thus demoting the biblical idea that God created man in His own image. Dinosaurs are not mentioned in the Hebrew Bible.</p> <p>Highly rewarding financial and economic benefits to museums, educational and research organizations, university departments of paleontology, discoverers and owners of dinosaur bones, and the book, television, movie and media industries may cause sufficient motivation for ridiculing of open questioning and for suppression of honest investigation.</p> </blockquote> <p>The stupid! It burns!! I first learned of such doofuses when mom told me about one individual calling up a Christian radio talk show and make the stupid claim that there's no such thing as dinosaurs. I laughed it off at first. But when I was forced into being mentally tormented by creationism years ago, I became real angry at those denialists the same way I became real angry at the creationists who on religious grounds force feed lies and idiocy posing as fact down the throats of people whether they like it or not. How dare they say dinosaurs don't exist and that paleontologists simply fake the bones to get people to turn away from God and the Bible!? Oh sure. Never mind the bones unearthed being 100% real. Never mind paleontologists being poor and underpaid in comparison with the dumb lying creationists and the televangelists who parade hate, lies, and propaganda, spew flowery, godly speeches, and mooch their followers into giving them millions upon millions of dollars to buy expensive cars, mansions, gold jewelry, etc. Just make believe that paleontologists faked all the bones and put them up in museums as a conspiracy to turn people away from God. This is just as bad as saying President Barack Obama is an anti-Christian leading America away from God without one proof of it being true.</p> <p>To tell you the truth, I did visited the site, but that was long ago when I was searching for sites and essays debunking the claims about Behemoth being a sauropod dinosaur paraded about by creationists who lie about dinosaurs living with humans. Today I don't really want to see such sites anymore due to multiple instances of the billions of brain cells being killed reading this kind of crap and not being able to resist reading this crap out of curiosity and the fact that I go ga ga over dinosaur pictures whether they're accurately drawn of not. But thankfully that's changing now that I'm developing a real discernment over how accurate the dinosaurs are drawn based on the latest in fossil discoveries and studies of their bone structure. Believing that the earth is flat and is the center of the universe is bad enough, but denying the existence of dinosaurs and their prehistoric contemporaries is even worse.</p> <p>(Hat tip to <a href="http://www.skepticblog.org/">Skepticblog</a> for this one)</p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057195" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>

				<title>That&#039;s No Dimetrodon!</title>
				<link>http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/blog:that-s-no-dimetrodon</link>

&lt;p&gt;Image alleged to depict Dimetrodon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img src=&quot;http://academic.reed.edu/humanities/110tech/romanafrica2/pompei%26herc2.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;pompei%26herc2.jpg&quot; class=&quot;image&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Forgive me for the long wait. I was tired and bored with blogging so I decided to give myself a long rest for awhile before I go back to blogging again. Anyway I just got an email from a creationist who send me a photo of an old Roman style painting he thinks depicts Dimetrodon, a mammal-like reptile that lived 280 million years ago during the Permian Period in what is now Texas, living among humans that were appearing to capture the beast as the other hunters became viciously attacked by an artist&#039;s representation of a hippopotamus.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The real restoration of Dimetrodon based on fossil evidence (From Wikipedia)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img src=&quot;http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a2/Dimetrodon8DB.jpg&quot; width=&quot;500&quot; alt=&quot;Dimetrodon8DB.jpg&quot; class=&quot;image&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I got news for him - That&#039;s no Dimetrodon! This is an artist&#039;s representation of the crocodile. An African native is seen on its back helping some hunters fish out and subdue the croc. It is indeed a crocodile. For there&#039;s no way can a human ride on Dimetrodon&#039;s back without breaking its tall spines. The crocodile in the painting is seen to have a flat, slightly rounded head with its jaws opened to reveal only one set of teeth. Dimetrodon has a real round curved head with mammalian style teeth in its mammalian jaws. It has two sets of teeth which is how Dimetrodon get its name meaning &amp;quot;Two Different Teeth&amp;quot; When the crocodile is commonly sighted in Africa, remains of Dimetrodon have been found in North America and Europe. None of its remains have been found in Africa. Besides every time paleontologists dug up remains of the likes of Dimetrodon, they find no traces of human remains in and around the Permian strata let alone all rock stratas dating back before the Pliocene Epoch. Even if that&#039;s what the creationists claim to be, that do not explain why there&#039;s no human remains found alongside remains of the likes of Dimetrodon.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Creationists target children with dinosaurs because they know they are fascinated by them, and they like to take advantage of it. To indoctrinate children into ignorance, lies, and flat-out denial of evidence pointing to the fact that dinosaurs lived millions of years ago before there was any humans around, creationists would sometimes create idiot dinosaur books containing cartoon characters that appeals to them. Sad. And John &amp;quot;Moronic&amp;quot; Morris of the Institution for Creation Research and that Idiot Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis created &lt;em&gt;What Really Happened to the Dinosaurs&lt;/em&gt;&amp;#8230;&lt;/p&gt;

To indoctrinate children into ignorance, lies, and flat-out denial of evidence pointing to the fact that dinosaurs lived millions of years ago before there was any humans around, creationists would sometimes create idiot dinosaur books containing cartoon characters that appeals to them. Sad. And John &quot;Moronic&quot; Morris of the Institution for Creation Research and that Idiot Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis created <em>What Really Happened to the Dinosaurs</em>&#8230;</p> <img src="http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/P/0890511594.01._SS500_SCLZZZZZZZ_V1056505273_.jpg" alt="0890511594.01._SS500_SCLZZZZZZZ_V1056505273_.jpg" class="image" /> <p>&#8230;a book starring an explorer named Tracker John and his sidekick Dj, a small dinosaur with tennis shoes on his feet, to do just that.</p> <img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5309/5770104298_bf0f7dced5.jpg" alt="5770104298_bf0f7dced5.jpg" class="image" /> <p>They both take the reader through a journey to the fictional world of Planet Earth 6,000 years ago where dinosaurs once lived with humans and everything was wiped out in the fictional worldwide Flood. I have <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/what-really-happened-to-the-dinosaurs">a short essay</a> debunking the claims found in the book to which this post will be its supplement that shows you a few cartoonish scenes scanned from the book depicting dinosaurs drawn the wrong way.</p> <img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2409/5770068520_7e226c25ca.jpg" alt="5770068520_7e226c25ca.jpg" class="image" /> <p>What appears to be a Brachiosaurus looked more of a plumped diplodocid than a brachiosaur. BTW the brachiosaur head on the front cover and the intro page is nothing more than a copy of the pseudo-brachiosaur as seen on the front cover of Paul Taylor's <em>The Great Dinosaur mystery and the Bible</em></p> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3192/5770104084_0a8c37b53c.jpg" alt="5770104084_0a8c37b53c.jpg" class="image" /><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5021/5770103862_22a2a3cc1e.jpg" alt="5770103862_22a2a3cc1e.jpg" class="image" /> <p>Either that's a hadrosaur frolicking in front of an Middle Eastern type farmhouse or that's a Psittacosaurus fully blown up. Still the same old upright tail-dragging &quot;person in a monster suit&quot; kind of a design that just won't go away. Anyway according to the paragraph, the Bible allegedly tells us that dinosaurs were created on the 6th Day of Creation Week&#8230;. Hmm that's funny. All the Bible really says that God made the &quot;beasts of the earth&quot;, the cattle, and &quot;creepy things that creep upon the earth&quot;. The Bible doesn't say anything about dinosaurs being included in the mix. So, it's obvious the creationists shoehorned dinosaurs into the &quot;beasts of the earth&quot; and the &quot;creepy things&quot; passage out of ignorance of the passage containing no reference to dinosaurs at all; the original text was written thousands of years ago during the time dinosaurs were completely unknown and unheard of.</p> <p>Of course the King James Bible does have dragons in various passages of the book. But that only refers to snakes, wolves, and jackals, not dinosaurs. But tell that to the creationists who invented the lie about dinosaurs once being called dragons that people saw alive at one time as depicted in this final idiot scene I'll show you below.</p> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3362/5769564437_9268d1dba1_b.jpg" alt="5769564437_9268d1dba1_b.jpg" class="image" /> <p>In reality this is all the direct result of creationists <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/dragon-dinosaur-fabrications">fabricating dragon legends</a> by taking folklore out of context, shoehorning the word &quot;reptile&quot; and other similar words into the stories, and throwing out parts of dragons that don't describe dinosaurs (i.e. multiple heads, poison breath, etc.) and keeping the parts that do.</p> <p>Well that's it for now. Have a great weekend.</p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057195" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>

But as we know, this is false thanks to the numerous scientific evidence that points to the fact that our world and the universe is billions of years old - far older than what Archbishop James Usher have thought when he attempted to determine the age of the earth though biblical dates and some other historical events. But that doesn&#039;t stop some people from believing that the fictional 6,000 year old earth is fact because the Bible allegedly tell them so.&lt;/p&gt;

						 <p><strong>(Update: Finished!)</strong> According to Ronald Numbers book <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Creationists-Scientific-Creationism-Intelligent-Expanded/dp/0674023390/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1306978450&amp;sr=8-1">The Creationists</a></em> The Seventh Day Adventists founded young earth creationism though Ellen G White, the founder of the Seventh Day religion, who claims to have seen a vision from God allegedly telling her how God made the universe in a 6-24 hour fashion, 6000 years ago, just as creationists would like everyone to believe. But as we know, this is false thanks to the numerous scientific evidence that points to the fact that our world and the universe is billions of years old - far older than what Archbishop James Usher have thought when he attempted to determine the age of the earth though biblical dates and some other historical events. But that doesn't stop some people from believing that the fictional 6,000 year old earth is fact because the Bible allegedly tell them so.</p> <p>From the local library's website, I ordered and checked out this dinosaur book written by a SDA member named Elaine Graham-Kennedy who published <em>Dinosaurs: Where did they come from&#8230; and where did they go?</em> in 2006. Here she's not really telling the reader what to believe about dinosaurs, she's just presenting only two different points of views about the dinosaurs and allows the reader to decide which side to believe in and which side to reject. But knowing the creationists' habit of distorting and ignoring evidence for scientific reality pointing to the world billions of years old as well as display all sorts of hate and fear mongering, it would be better to side with the scientists who correctly teach that the earth is billions of years old and that dinosaurs lived long before humans came to earth.</p> <img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61Z7765R77L._SS500_.jpg" alt="61Z7765R77L._SS500_.jpg" class="image" /> <p>Because this book presents only different points of views and it's not made to brainwash readers into the author's point of view, I'm not going to do a page by page rebuttal to this book, but a short review of it instead.</p> <p>Like any YECreationist and the SDA which spawned this form of creationism, she's an anti-evolutionist who believes everything the Bible says about the Creation Story and gives out the usual creationist canards throughout the book along with plenty of photos of dinosaur skeletons taken from various museums throughout the western areas of the united states, including this terribly inaccurate skeleton of a dromaeosaur build in a 4-legged pose reminiscent of the various toy dinosaurs that portrayed dromaeosaurs like Velociraptor as a four legged dinosaur. This is taken from the <a href="http://www.grisda.org/">Geoscience Research Institute</a>, a Seventh Day Adventist organization founded to address the conflict between scientific reality and creationist fairy tales as believed by the SDA which founded the young earth cult.</p> <img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5221/5788446390_a348a64689.jpg" alt="5788446390_a348a64689.jpg" class="image" /> <p>You can easily tell they don't know a real Velociraptor skeleton from the fictional movie raptor made for <em>Jurassic Park.</em> Here's the real skeleton of the Velociraptor, a small 80 million year old dromaeosaur from Mongolia!</p> <img src="http://www.healthstones.com/dinosaurstore/dinosaurskeletons/velociraptor/velociraptor.jpg" alt="velociraptor.jpg" class="image" /> <p>This book is very informative about dinosaurs but that doesn't stop the author from making all sorts of creationist-style remarks like.</p> <blockquote> <p>&quot;Did you know that most of the people who read and write about dinosaurs know more about dinosaurs than they know about God? That's terrible! If we're going to talk with those people about dinosaurs, we need to know the basic facts. When they see that we know about dinosaurs too, they might listen when we talk about the God who created them.&quot;</p> </blockquote> <p>Lady, there are most people who know lots about both God and dinosaurs together, including myself. Apparently you bought into the biblically-unfounded canard that anyone who disagree with you and your SDA beliefs is not a Christian. In fact you are no different than all cult-groups out there including young earth creationists who claim that anyone who disagrees with their idiot views is not a Christian, let alone a true one.</p> <p>She mentions lot of creationist canards (i.e. fossils formed by Noah's Flood, dinosaurs died out after the Flood, etc.) in the book to which she rightfully says they cannot be proven, they're only made up based on faith&#8212; faith no different than having faith in believing in Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, gnomes, etc. I suppose.</p> <p>Other canards mentioned in the book include the Ecological zonation fallacy which claims the Triassic, Jurassic, and the Cretaceous layers were formed as a result of animals fleeing to higher ground to escape the Flood. Dinosaurs found in the Triassic layers is claimed to to the first ones to die in the Flood while others in the Cretaceous layers were the last ones to go. Never mind the absolute flaws behind the claim such as how did these animals find themselves pile up on top of each other and how did a terrestial ecology came to be transported on top of a marine ecology, such that fine details such as footprints, burrows, and paleosols were undisturbed and such that the layer extends over hundreds of square miles (<a href="http://talkorigins.org/indexcc/CH/CH561_1.html">as discussed here</a>)? And the all-dinosaurs-including-theropods-were-herbivores-before-the-Fall-of-Man canard were all made up by the way the Bible is interpreted out of ignorance of no mentioning of any references of animal death in passages where only human death and salvation from sin is referenced and discussed in, such as the oft-used, out-of-context <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans%208&amp;version=NIV">Romans 8</a> passage where only human death and salvation though Jesus Christ is mentioned for example.</p> <p>She flat out denies that birds are living dinosaurs. She thinks dromaeosaurs cannot be the ancestors of birds because bird fossils have been found in rock layers below the rock layers where the dromaeosaurs have been found. Have she ever heard of common ancestry and the fact that the birds that are found below the Cretaceous strata look more of theropods than modern birds? Does she know that Dromaeosaurs have hips that resemble the hips of modern birds and that they have feathers? Does she know about the abelisaurs, such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majungasaurus#Respiratory_system">Majungasaurus</a>, processing the ability to breathe like a bird? Apparently not.</p> <p>She also acknowledge that there are no human remains found alongside dinosaur remains (including footprints), but this doesn't stop her and the likes of her from believing that one day, real evidence for humans and dinosaurs together will be found. Chances of finding such real evidence is nil. It's a pipe dream made up by people who wanted such a scenario to be real despite the odds of such things happening being slim to none.</p> <p>Though this book is written by a YECreationist, this book is extremely rare. A one of a kind creationist dinosaur book that displays no fear or hate mongering, no proselytizing, no threats of Hell or slandering non-creationists. It is only made to present two different points of view about dinosaurs in a non-threatening, non-intimidating way. She created this book to allow readers the freewill to decide what they wish to believe about dinosaurs after presenting different point of views about them both from a &quot;Christian&quot; and a &quot;non-Christian&quot; perspective.</p> <p>And so, since she has given us the freewill to decide, it'll be no problem for us to decide on embracing the so-called &quot;non-Christian&quot; point of view that says the earth is billions of years old and that dinosaurs lived and died long before humans came along. And that's nothing based on faith, but actual scientific evidence pointing to such facts.</p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057195" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>

&lt;p&gt;It&#039;s been a week since I posted here. I&#039;ve been busy with work and harp and stuff, so. At least today is my day off from work because of course today is Memorial Day and I personally thank all of the men and women who served our country for all of the selfless efforts to keep our nation safe and secure. Now onward with Idiot Dino Art of the Week (IDAotW)! This week is all about David Unfred&#039;s classic &lt;em&gt;Dinosaurs and the Bible&lt;/em&gt; a late 80s&#039; book that&#039;s cock load of inaccurate illustrations of dinosaurs. It&#039;s especially infamous for the advocating of a set of alleged human foot tracks found alongside dinosaur prints in Glen Rose, Texas now declared a hoax created by practical jokers who carved those poorly preserved dinosaur prints into human prints to attract tourists.&lt;/p&gt;

						 <p>It's been a week since I posted here. I've been busy with work and harp and stuff, so. At least today is my day off from work because of course today is Memorial Day and I personally thank all of the men and women who served our country for all of the selfless efforts to keep our nation safe and secure. Now onward with Idiot Dino Art of the Week (IDAotW)! This week is all about David Unfred's classic <em>Dinosaurs and the Bible</em> a late 80s' book that's cock load of inaccurate illustrations of dinosaurs. It's especially infamous for the advocating of a set of alleged human foot tracks found alongside dinosaur prints in Glen Rose, Texas now declared a hoax created by practical jokers who carved those poorly preserved dinosaur prints into human prints to attract tourists.</p> <img src="http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/51T440ZRH7L._SS500_.jpg" height="248" width="248" alt="51T440ZRH7L._SS500_.jpg" class="image" /> <p>What I'm going to show you here is a few collection of images scanned from a copy that's not in a very good condition. I could get a better copy ordered from the library website but it's all they have available so I have to make do with this copy of the book which unfortunately contains torn pages and weak binding in a few spots. Like all creationist materials, much of the dinosaurs in the book are illustrated wrong; sauropods are still portrayed as swamp dwellers despite the fossil evidence showing us that sauropods were terrestrial animals living a lifestyle similar to a giraffe and an elephant.</p> <img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5021/5769602703_40bf10b716.jpg" alt="5769602703_40bf10b716.jpg" class="image" /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2185/5770163446_2cff5b4345.jpg" alt="5770163446_2cff5b4345.jpg" class="image" /> <p>Although there's no indications of earthquakes, volcanoes, and meteor showers being found in the bible, Unfred and many other creationists just had to thrown all of it in there to explain evidence of volcanic, earthquake, and meteor showers found in the fossil record that actually occurred each in separate occasions over a period of time. This image shows what's supposed to be an Ornithomimosaur in a foreground with a beakless mouth, upright posture, and &quot;slapper arms&quot;.</p> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3246/5770143976_14b33e2276.jpg" alt="5770143976_14b33e2276.jpg" class="image" /> <p>If you want to know how creationists explain evolution, get a load of this strawman illustration.</p> <img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5022/5770142084_4576a60d67_b.jpg" alt="5770142084_4576a60d67_b.jpg" class="image" /> <p>Anything to make evolution look bad. What is illustrated is all made up out of ignorance of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whale_evolution">how whales really evolved</a> based on fossil evidence.</p> <p>Now this last image is full of laughs. When paleontologists states that Tyrannosaurus rex can open its mouth so wide that it could swallow watermelons whole, creationists took advantage of this and pretend that T.rex once ate melons before the Fall of man.</p> <img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5183/5769627973_ebd21220af.jpg" alt="5769627973_ebd21220af.jpg" class="image" /> <p>And stupidly compared the sharp teeth of the T.rex with the teeth of a mere spider monkey, never mind the monkey teeth being thin, smooth, and blunt. Mammalian Teeth with canines, incisors, and molars, like the spider monkey's teeth, cannot compare with the actual teeth of T.rex and other carnivorous dinosaurs with only one set of teeth that's thick, conical, and deep rooted. Unlike mammalian teeth that can be replaced only once, dinosaur teeth can be replaced multiple times.</p> <p>It seems no one could resist drawing T.rex in an inaccurate upright, tail dragging pose, incorrectly showing three fingers rather than two on each hand even in the face of the actual evidence revealing T.rex to be like a walking teeter-toter. Plus unlike the T.rex in the image, T.rex cannot twist its arms like we do. It can only processed &quot;clapper arms&quot; which are so small they can barely reach the tyrant's mouth.</p> <p>To view a full rebuttal to <em>Dinosaurs and the Bible</em>, <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/dinosaurs-and-the-bible">Click here.</a></p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057195" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>

&lt;p&gt;Sunday was rough for me. Much of the day I had a very hard time trying to upload scanned images from my PC onto either Flickr or Photobucket and none of them were uploading right. I had to shrink the images doing to file and image size to make them work. Now it&#039;s been finally done. All of the images I want are uploaded and ready to go. Now I can concentrate on introducing to you readers Idiot Dino Art of the Week, a weekly blog post containing idiot dinoart scanned from various idiot creationist dinosaur books made by those who don&#039;t appeared to know how to draw a dinosaur right based on the latest studies of their skeletal structure, prefering to instead draw a dinosaur straight out of a cartoon or a science fiction comic.&lt;/p&gt;

						 <p>Sunday was rough for me. Much of the day I had a very hard time trying to upload scanned images from my PC onto either Flickr or Photobucket and none of them were uploading right. I had to shrink the images doing to file and image size to make them work. Now it's been finally done. All of the images I want are uploaded and ready to go. Now I can concentrate on introducing to you readers Idiot Dino Art of the Week, a weekly blog post containing idiot dinoart scanned from various idiot creationist dinosaur books made by those who don't appeared to know how to draw a dinosaur right based on the latest studies of their skeletal structure, prefering to instead draw a dinosaur straight out of a cartoon or a science fiction comic.</p> <p>Anyone who claims the dinosaur images found in creationist books and websites to be accurate depictions of dinosaurs knows absolutely nothing about dinosaurs. Period. Creationists, even in the face of accuracy based on the latest studies of the dinosaurs' anatomy, never, ever get their dinosaur imageries right no matter what. And this collection scanned from Paul Taylor's <em>The Great Dinosaur mystery and the Bible</em> proves it. What you will see here is the first collection of Idiot Dino Art I scanned and uploaded from Paul Taylor's book I debunked (<a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/the-great-dinosaur-mystery-and-the-bible">Read</a> <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/the-great-dinosaur-mystery-and-the-bible-part-2">the</a> <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/the-great-dinosaur-mystery-and-the-bible-part-3">whole</a> <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/the-great-dinosaur-mystery-and-the-bible-part-4">essay</a> <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/the-great-dinosaur-mystery-and-the-bible-part-5">right</a> <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/the-great-dinosaur-mystery-and-the-bible-part-6">here.</a>) which contains some of the most horribly drawn dinoart ever made. Done out of ignorance of the actual anatomy of dinosaurs based on the latest study of their bone structure, these drawings are made as if the artists couldn't tell a cartoon/comic book dinosaur from an actual dinosaur made by a professional paleoartist under the direction of a professional paleontologist.</p> <p>Here's the first image I scanned from the book.</p> <img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2438/5746977979_9557cbe65f.jpg" alt="5746977979_9557cbe65f.jpg" class="image" /> <p>This is claimed to be a Scelidosaurus according to the book's index. If so, this has got to be the worst drawn Scelidosaurus ever made. There's no bony studs on its body and the posture is more of bipedal than quadruped. Even the number of toe digits are wrong. It seems Todd Tennant, the one who illustrated many images for the book, including the cover, never actually saw Scelidosaurus at all. He just whipped up this pseudo-dinosaur being at the mercy of the Fictional Flood and branded it as Scelidosaurus out of ignorance of the real Scelidosaurus never being exactly what the image depicts.</p> <img src="http://www.wikidino.com/wp-content/uploads/Scelidosaurus-Arthur-Weasley.jpg" height="300" width="500" alt="Scelidosaurus-Arthur-Weasley.jpg" class="image" /> <p>Here's the next one. Can you tell what's wrong with this image?</p> <img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5027/5746937361_42a7d968c5.jpg" alt="5746937361_42a7d968c5.jpg" class="image" /> <p>These &quot;vegetarian&quot; Dilophosaurs look cartoonish. Their heads are drawn wrong, looking more box-like than what the actual head of Dilophosaurus looks like. The real Dilophosaurus was a meat-eating dinosaur with a head that resembled Coelophysis. It lived 180 million years ago in the Early Jurassic Period, preying on various animals including Lufengosaurus and Scutellosaurus.</p> <img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fe/Dilophosaurus_wetherilli.jpg/800px-Dilophosaurus_wetherilli.jpg" width="400" alt="800px-Dilophosaurus_wetherilli.jpg" class="image" /><img src="http://www.georgealozano.com/photos/stamps/Dilophosaurus.jpg" alt="Dilophosaurus.jpg" class="image" /> <p>Now look at this.</p> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3165/5747515820_71d3fcc18f.jpg" alt="5747515820_71d3fcc18f.jpg" class="image" /> <p>These 2 Acanthopholis are bad knock-offs of a Neave Parker Painting.</p> <img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3401/3210762214_c70701a555.jpg" alt="3210762214_c70701a555.jpg" class="image" /> <p>Both dinosaurs have only 3-toed feet and lack a beak. Never mind the real Acanthopholis that looked none like the two above. Acanthopholis is a nodosaurid that lived during the Early Cretaceous Period in what is now England. It never pulled chariots in real life.</p> <img src="http://ageofdinosaurs.com/images/acanthopholis.jpg" alt="acanthopholis.jpg" class="image" /> <p>Now this is one of the worst dinosaur images ever!</p> <img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2676/5747407244_4fe760d07c.jpg" alt="5747407244_4fe760d07c.jpg" class="image" /> <p>This is a very badly drawn Brachiosaurus made by Gary Webb, another illustrator who made real bad drawings of dinosaurs for the book. This dinosaur is horribly drawn wrong with splayed toes and a &quot;Brontosaurus&quot; body. Even the teeth is drawn wrong. This is not the only badly drawn Brachiosaur found in the book. The Brachiosaur on the front cover, drawn and painted by Tennant, is drawn badly wrong, too, with short, crooked front legs and a &quot;Brontosaurus&quot; body. It to me seems these illustrators received such dinosaur knowledge only from kindergarten, never bother to look at a Brachiosaurus skeleton to know that this Jurassic dinosaur has a giraffe body and front legs with compact, one-clawed, toeless feet longer than its hindlegs with compact elephantine feet.</p> <img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d9/Brachiosaurus_DB.jpg/800px-Brachiosaurus_DB.jpg" height="300" width="550" alt="800px-Brachiosaurus_DB.jpg" class="image" /> <p>Here's one more.</p> <img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2635/5747190019_33ab1c91c4.jpg" alt="5747190019_33ab1c91c4.jpg" class="image" /> <p>This is the worst drawing of Edmontosaurus made to allegedly match an alleged dinosaur carving on a rock wall. Never mind what the real Edmontosaurus looks like based on fossil evidence. This image above is a very bad knock off of an Edmontosaurus from a painting by Neave Parker. Look at how bad the drawing looks with a droopy two-fingered arm and a pot belly. The real Edmontosaurus never looked like that at all.</p> <img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f0/Edmontosaurus_BW.jpg" height="280" width="530" alt="Edmontosaurus_BW.jpg" class="image" /> <p>Well that's it for now. After all the hard times I had trying to upload scanned images to Flickr and Photobucket, I could use a well deserved break. Ciao for now.</p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057195" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>

&lt;p&gt;It&#039;s all over the media world. The world will end tomorrow. Don&#039;t believe it. There has been multiple instances of people like Harold Camping predicting that the world will end on a certain day. The day came and nothing happened. So will this prediction and the 12-12-12 prediction which claims that according to the Mayan prophecies the world will end on December 12, 2012. Don&#039;t believe it either. For Jesus says in Mark 13:32-37 (NKJV),&lt;/p&gt;

						 <p>It's all over the media world. The world will end tomorrow. Don't believe it. There has been multiple instances of people like Harold Camping predicting that the world will end on a certain day. The day came and nothing happened. So will this prediction and the 12-12-12 prediction which claims that according to the Mayan prophecies the world will end on December 12, 2012. Don't believe it either. For Jesus says in Mark 13:32-37 (NKJV),</p> <blockquote> <p>“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is. It is like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch. Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming—in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning— lest, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping. And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!”</p> </blockquote> <p>When Jesus said that there will be those who make false predictions about His second coming, He wasn't joking.</p> <blockquote> <p>“Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. See, I have told you beforehand. Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it. For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together.&quot; (Matthew 24:23-28 NKJV)</p> </blockquote> <p>It's foolish for anyone to cry wolf when one makes a prediction that the world will end on a certain day only for that day to never come. Unfortunately that's what happening with Pat Robertson, Harold Camping, and other religious bozos out there.</p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057195" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>

						 <p>Pages 60-64: Anyone who thinks and says it's wrong to embrace evolution and millions of years even in the face of physical evidence for them is one mentally sick puppy. The last idiot age, Fiction, proves beyond doubt that Ham is just that. He treats everything science and evolution as fiction in the face of evidence confirming science and evolution to be fact. What a psychopath Ham is! Claiming that this book is “non-fiction” while there's not a single shred of evidence supporting his so-called “true history of the world.” This book explains nothing but make believe fantasies that are the direct result of creationists imagining things, putting them into writing, and expect everyone to accept them as truth because the Bible allegedly tells them so and treat everything else that don't agree with their idiocy as fiction even in the face of evidence supporting evolution and “millions of years.” This is the final part of the book riddled with hypocrisies, slander, proselytism, and strawman claims such as,</p> <blockquote> <p>They [secular scientists and the other supposed “sinners in need of salvation” who don't believe Ham's fairy tales] believe somehow matter, or “goo,” or “slime” [*facepalm*] produced life, and then one kind of creature changed into another kind of creature over millions of years [just like Ham's imaginary “created kinds” but in a very slow pace]. They believe dinosaurs evolved around 200 million years ago [That's 230 MYA, Ham!], and then eventually evolved into birds. Then 65 million years ago dinosaurs [sic] supposedly died out for some mysterious reason [Try meteorite, Ham!]. Then they believe that around 2 million years ago [four million years, Ham!], ape-like creatures began evolving into humans – and here we are today.”</p> </blockquote> <p>What Ham rants about here is not an act of rebellion against the Creator, but an act of trying to find out just how life really began through physical evidence. Even Christians with common sense acknowledges that there's truth to what scientists are claiming all along with it comes to dinosaurs living millions of years ago and that all modern humans are descended from hominds, ape-like creatures that first appeared on earth 4 million years ago. It is around 200,000 years ago when <em>Homo sapiens</em> or modern man came to be. And it's all because of physical evidence supporting evolution and the old universe and earth that's billions of years old.</p> <p>It is the Christians of the 18th and 19th centuries who discovered the world we live in to be far much older than 6,000 years just by observing and uncovering physical evidence supporting such a concept, not some secular group who schemes to lead people away from God though lies, make believed claims, and distortions that cause people to be lead astray from the Creator – this is stuff creationists have been known to do themselves, and yet deny this.</p> <p>Every creationist idiocy features the worthless encouragement to look into the Bible for scientific understandings and solving of dinosaurs mysteries you will never find in there. There is no bibilcal worldview about dinosaurs. What is called biblical truth is all nothing more than lies, ignorance, denial, stupidity, and slandering anyone who dares to question their teachings. Questions about dinosaurs cannot be answered in Genesis and in the Bible because there's none in there. There's no answers in Genesis when it comes to dinosaurs and other prehistoric life. But of course tell that to Ham and he'll vehemently defend his idiot pseudo-answers in the Bible to his last breath just like all others like him.</p> <p>He denies there's ever such a thing as feathered dinosaurs. Take his idiot claims about “A Belief that Just Doesn't Fly” for instance. In this drivel, he states that in order to prove Darwin's theory of evolution, scientists have long sought what they call transitional fossils. In Ham's eyes, these are fossils believed that they will supposedly show a link between two unrelated fossils – proving that one creature evolved into another. Well guess what, Ham? <a href="http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-transitional.html">There are hundreds of such fossils found!</a> And what about the fossils that transitions a dinosaur into a bird? Well, Ham pretends that no feathered dinosaurs, let alone any other fossil that proves this supposed idea of dinosaurs evolving into a bird, have been found to date. And that Archaeopteryx, a primitive bird from the Jurassic Period, that was long shown to be the “missing link” between dinosaurs and birds is now considered to be just a bird (Never mind its theropod skeletal structure and primitive wishbone) and that it is shown to be much older than the dinosaur fossils it supposedly evolved from (Never mind it actually being a very close relative to dinosaurs like Troodon and Deinonychus rather than a “missing link” between such dinosaurs and birds). And finally, the dinosaur fossils from China that once appeared to have feathers have turned out to be woven skin fibers – all a result of a misrepresentation of one paleontologist's conclusion made after seeing just a photograph of a fossil specimen bearing hair-like feathers. The skinned fiber concept have been disproven and discredited by paleontologists who actually saw the fossil and discovered that the so-called skinned fibers on the fossil is actually preparation markings and primitive hair like feathers that amazingly carry colored pigment that for the first time ever gives paleontologists an idea of what color was <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinosauropteryx">Sinosauropteryx</a> when it was alive and living in China 121 million years ago. Contrary to Ham's denial, it makes a ton of sense to say that birds did evolved from dinosaurs like Deinonychus and Velociraptor due to so many features similar to one another such as backward pointing saurischian hips, hollow bones, bird-like lungs, feathers, bird like arms, and primitive wishbones.</p> <p>Ham's book is all fiction – exactly what scientists allegedly present that's simply a guess or doesn't follow the alleged truth of God's Word according to Ham. Everything Ham claims in his book is downright unproven and false themselves. He gives no references to all of his claims. Every scenario, including ones depicting animal behavior inside the ark, all dinosaurs being strict vegetarians before the Fall of man, and dragons being dinosaurs people once saw alive is entirely made up without any bases of truth in them. Even the dinosaur art in the book do not have any bases of fact in them. Everything is entirely made up to proselytize gullible children and those who lack any knowledge of science. And that's what the last part of the book does – proselytize. Getting people to convert to Christianity in a very worst way, using lies and deception to get people to believe in God. But once the truth about creation is known, then, sadly for the people who realized that they've been duped to believe in a deceiving God who created the world 6,000 thousands of years ago without any physical proof whatsoever, it's deconversion time!</p> <p><strong>Real Age 7: Enthrall</strong> Contrary to what is shown on pages 60-61, children, and especially adults, enthrall the dinosaurs. Sure they scare up a lot of kids and adults, too, but that's all overshadowed by the enthrallment of seeing these majestic beasts whether in a museum or at a traveling exhibit. All over the world, people of all ages, race, and nationality gaze in wonder and awe at the skeletal displays of dinosaurs every time they visit natural history museums from the American Museum of Natural History in New York City to the Los Angeles Museum of Natural History in California. There's no stopping to the great fascination of these Mesozoic Majesties. At a rapid pace, new dinosaur discoveries are being made with no end in sight. On average, new dinosaurs are being discovered every few weeks. And old favorites are getting new looks thanks to new fossil specimens showing what was never before known on a familiar favorite such as Stegosaurus' pebbly throat pouch and Diplodocus' single row of spines. Scores of dinosaur discoveries have been made that answered a lot of questions about dinosaurs that have baffled scientists for many years, and yet such discoveries create more questions about dinosaurs that can only be answered when more physical evidence is found in the future that would answer them. There's no guessing to it. The science of dinosaurs is all real and factual in the face of physical evidence supporting the fact that dinosaurs lived millions of years ago long before there were any humans on earth, unlike young earth creationism which contains nothing but lies, deceit, slander, fabrications, distortions, and or course fiction and made up fairy tales.</p> <p>And that concludes the rebuttal of Ken Ham's idiot book <em>Dinosaurs for Kids</em>.</p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057195" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>

				<description>

&lt;p&gt;I changed the theme again to look relevant to what this site deals with when it comes to creation idiocy on dinosaurs. I added cartoon coloring images of dinosaurs, animals, Adam and Noah to the background, mostly from Ken Ham&#039;s 2 idiot books for children &lt;em&gt;A is for Adam&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;D is for Dinosaur&lt;/em&gt;. The rest are from &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.christiananswers.net/kids/clr-indx.html&quot;&gt;The Great Dinosaur Mystery&lt;/a&gt; coloring pages. I wanted the theme to look catchy, eye friendly, and have a clean look. The cartoons, well, it&#039;s another thing. Looking at the cartoonish images could gives one the impression that these don&#039;t need to be colored. There&#039;s too much black shadings on them. Apparently the creationist who illustrated the book never got the time to look at actual coloring books for children to get a much better idea of what coloring pages should look like without any black shadings on them.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Is there any bases for anything Ham and other creationists claim in all their materials from crackhouse displays to books? The clear answer to that is “No, they don&#039;t.” Everything creationists claim from how animal behave inside the ark, what the ark looked like inside and out, what&#039;s life like in the Garden of Eden, and what happened after the alleged worldwide Flood is entirely made up. Creationists made everything up - point blank - with no bases of truth and reality and expects everyone to accept what they made up as truth without question. This is what I call dictatorship. Not to mention hypocrisy when it comes to creationists themselves being exactly what they claim “secular scientists” do when it comes to making things up and guessing at everything.&lt;/p&gt;

						 <p>Is there any bases for anything Ham and other creationists claim in all their materials from crackhouse displays to books? The clear answer to that is “No, they don't.” Everything creationists claim from how animal behave inside the ark, what the ark looked like inside and out, what's life like in the Garden of Eden, and what happened after the alleged worldwide Flood is entirely made up. Creationists made everything up - point blank - with no bases of truth and reality and expects everyone to accept what they made up as truth without question. This is what I call dictatorship. Not to mention hypocrisy when it comes to creationists themselves being exactly what they claim “secular scientists” do when it comes to making things up and guessing at everything.</p> <p>Page 46-47: More wrongly illustrated dinosaurs on Page 47 include Triceratops with 3 digit toes on all four feet and large pointed spikes on their frills and a lizard-like dromaeosaur with no feathers and slapper hands. If what creationists claim about Noah's ark is true, then Noah's ark should be regarded as the Ark of Death which creationists use in comparison with Jesus Christ, the so-called Ark of Salvation, in the very worst way. The idiot age of Faded is presented with this scenario – Noah's ark as the Ark of Death, promising to save anyone inside from the Flood only to bring them out into their death in the alleged “Post-Flood” world&#8230;. SUCKER!</p> <p>In the imaginary Post-Flood world, according to Ham, everything changed dramatically. An Ice Age came to the world after the Flood. According to Ham it is because of the warm waters of the Flood and the cool land and ash in the atmosphere from volcanoes. Never mind the fact that there will be no ice age at all if that happened. The air would be scalded under the hot ashes of the volcanoes covering the sky and land will be flaming hot from volcanic activity. Even the Floodwaters would boil and evaporate with all that heat engulfing the area. Every living being that have survived the Flood would be fried to a crisp in this not-so nice world. Stupidly and desperately Ham blames sin, the Fall and curse, and the Flood on the dramatic changes that occur on earth after the Flood ended from dramatic weather changes to of all things “people clearing land” (*facepalm*) and animals eating each other (Yeah, sure if all animals were carnivorous.), which is his reason why many animal “kinds” (including dinosaurs) would struggle and eventually become extinct. Does he have any bases for all this? Except in his head, no. Creationists made it all up their reasons to why did the dinosaurs let alone other extinct animals like the early Cenozoic mammals and the Permian amphibians all died out.</p> <p><strong>Real Age 5: Extinction</strong> 65 million years ago, all dinosaurs of non-avian types faced extinction. All over the world, dinosaurs of all non-avian types, like Tyrannosaurus, Anatotitan, Ankylosaurus, and Majungasaurus, due to the aftermath of the massive impact of the meteor that occurred in what is now the Gulf of Mexico, died off, leaving behind a huge treasure trove of fossilized remains including bones, eggs, and skin and feather impressions for paleontologists to unearth and wonder about the baffling prehistoric monsters that make up the remains.</p> <p>Page 48: In all of his ignorant, delusional glory, Ham declares that these on the following two pages are evidence of humans living with dinosaurs. They're not. For none of them can explain why no humans remains have been found in and around the remains of dinosaurs in the fossil and archaeological records. In all creationist literature on dinosaurs, creationists take great delight in suckering children into believing that the two mythical monsters of Jewish mythology, <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/the-truth-about-behemoth">Behemoth</a> and <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/the-truth-about-leviathan">Leviathan</a>, were dinosaurs people once saw alive while hiding the fact that Leviathan is an fish-like monster with impenetrable armor and fiery breath unlike the Mesozoic Marine reptiles that had no such thing. And Behemoth is a mammalian monster and the “tail like a cedar” in Job 40:17 actually describes the movements of the monster's genitals.</p> <p>Page 49: This all sums up in one word – <em>fabrications</em>. The direct result of creationists stupidly taking dragon legends told from around the world and twisted them about to make them as if they're live dinosaur sightings while in fact they're distorted fairy tale folklore distorted by creationists who threw away every part of the dragon (or any other mythical monster) in the story that never describe dinosaurs, such as women's genitals to multiple heads, and keep the other parts that do, then turn around and say that they're live dinosaur sightings that have changed over the years and that what was called dragons back then were now being called dinosaurs today. A simple tactic creationists invented as part of their creation scheme to fool people into never suspecting that the so-called stories of live dinosaur encounters are in fact the direct result of creationists fabricating mythology and folklore by taking out what don't agree with their idiot views and keeping the parts that do.</p> <p>Page 50-53: Two pages is told of how fossils are formed, unearthed, and studied. Half of page 50 and all of page 53 discuss dinosaur eggs along with this blatant lie,</p> <blockquote> <p>“Regardless of the many things we don't really know about dinosaurs, we do know that there is no link between dinosaurs and birds (even though both lay eggs), just as there are no link between crocodiles (which lay eggs) and modern day birds.”</p> </blockquote> <p>Never mind the recent scores of evidence pointing to the fact that there is a huge link between birds and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maniraptora">maniraptorian dinosaurs</a> with feather imprints, hollow bones, primitive wishbones, backward pointing saurischian hips, everything that gives us the true impression that birds are indeed living descendants of the dinosaurs. Anyone who says there's no link between bird and dinosaurs is flat out lying. An incorrect painting of a embryo one that is in fossilized form and the other in living form that looks emaciated is shown on the four pages. No feathers and both hands and feet show 4 long fingers and toes. No hallux.</p> <p>Page 54-55: The idiot age of Found is discuss here. This is where Ham claims that dinosaurs remains were “rediscovered” in the early 1800's after long being thought of by the ancients as giants or “supernatural monsters” from a bygone era. As a matter of fact, this is really how mythology came about in real life. Any mythical story involving dragons and monsters originated from finding fossils of prehistoric life, mostly mammalian fossils dated to the early Cenozoic Era. Other mythical monster stories came from only sightings of live crocodiles and snakes made by remote villagers who never saw them before. Thus, you might say that prehistoric fossils were indeed rediscovered by people who after a long time of pondering finally figured it out what these strange bones embedded in the rock are. Before dinosaurs were discovered, people knew nothing of dinosaurs. No one has ever saw them alive (except birds) and they just don't have a clue to what these strange rock markings that resemble bones really are. That was before the early 1800s' when people began to finally come to grips on what these strange bones are. So therefore, fossils that were discovered by ancient people who can't figure out what they are were being rediscovered again. This time by people who correctly identified them as remains of plants and animals that have lived and died long before humans came about.</p> <p>Also parading about on page 54 is the blatant falsehood which claims that the names Megalosaurus and Iguanodon being named by the same man who invented the word “Dinosauria” or “dinosaur” for short – Sir Richard Owen. That's a blatant lie made up out of ignorance of the fact that the name Megalosaurus was invented in 1824 by Sir William Buckland who because the first paleontologist to name and fully describe a dinosaur. The name Iguanodon was invented by Gideon Mantell one year later in 1825 to describe fragmentary remains of a large plant eating “reptile.”</p> <p>In “Too Cold or Just Right?” section, Ham stupidly asserts that the bones of dinosaurs found in the arctic regions either were</p> <blockquote> <p>“&#8230;originally part of a continent that was elsewhere and then rearranged during the [sic] Great Flood. Or the dinosaur bones could have come from a different place and simply been left in that area by the Flood waters.”</p> </blockquote> <p>The truth is <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/oard-s-frozen-folly">neither</a>. Without any shred of evidence, Ham just concludes that the remains of dinosaurs, let alone other plants and animals, were just transported by the Flood waters to the arctic areas they are found in, never mind the fossilized tree stumps complete with roots that stayed put for the past 45 million years since the Eocene Epoch, never mind the dinosaurs' ability to adapt to the surroundings where there's prolonged days of warmth and light that causes plants to grow abundantly and cold, prolonged nights where the plants just lay dormant and the dinosaurs either migrate to warmer areas, hibernate in shelters, or just stayed put and active to toughen it out by developing large eyes to see in the dark and insulation in the form of feathers that kept their body temperature at a stable range, never mind their fossils being found exclusively in the arctic areas and none elsewhere, never mind the continental drift and the ocean currents being different back then than it is now, and never mind the real reason <a href="http://hoopermuseum.earthsci.carleton.ca//forest/eocene14.html">why a 45 million year old mummified forest is well preserved for 45 million years without being rapidly and violently buried</a> by the Fictional Flood of 4,500 years ago. If Ham thinks they where all transported to their respective places by the Flood, then where did they come from? And why are they not found in anywhere else in the world? If Ham can't honestly answer such 2 questions, then it's official: Ham is making it all up.</p> <p>Pages 56-59: The history of Sue, the world most complete Tyrannosaurus Rex, is discuss here. There is an incorrect painting of a T.rex skeleton shown on all four pages featuring the saurischian hip wrongly drawn and painted along with the skull and arm and shoulder blade attachments. In one part, Ham discusses his fictional view of what Sue's tough life would have been like in the fictional sin cursed world where everything allegedly became affected with diseases and ailments right after Adam ate the apple. In another part which talks about museum displays,</p> <blockquote> <p>“Could you tell just by looking that Sue's skull was not the real one? It's hard to tell sometimes in museum displays. And often museum displays either show or talk about details that scientists really don't know are fact, but represent their ideas that they present as the truth.”</p> </blockquote> <p>Just like in Ham's crackhouse. All ideas, no facts. The real truth about Sue's skull is that there is a difference between the actual skull and the cast model. Parts of the real skull have been crushed and broken, and thus appeared distorted. So Paleontologists had to make do with creating an altered cast version of the skull and place it on the skeletal mount. The real skull is kept in a display case for future study.</p> <blockquote> <p>A lot of questions about how dinosaurs lived cannot be answered by the very elaborate displays.</p> </blockquote> <p>Oh yes, it can! A lot of questions have been answered by paleontologists who learn about how dinosaurs lived just by finding clues in the fossil record which tells them how dinosaurs may have lived so many millions of years ago based on what they found in the fossil record. The more they discover about how the dinosaurs lived, the more they learn and understand about them better. The Bible gives no clues at all to the dinosaur's behavior because it says absolutely nothing about dinosaurs, fossils, evolution, everything of science and paleontology. Thus, there's no Biblical truth or worldview about it. The only reason to why creationists claimed there are answers about dinosaurs found in the Bible simply because they shoehorned the answers they made up from their heads in there and call them “Biblical truth”.</p> <p><strong>Real Age 6: Exception</strong> Birds are the only exception when it comes to the dinosaur extinction. They are the only dinosaurs to have survive the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cretaceous%E2%80%93Tertiary_extinction_event">Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction</a> and are seen alive and living 4,500 years ago at the time of the heyday of the Old Kingdom of Egypt where the citizens living at that time have no recollections of any kind of the alleged Worldwide Flood event. 4,500 years ago was the time when the pyramids were being built a while after the Archaic period came to an end and the Age of the Old Kingdom have begun.</p> <p>Concluded next post&#8230;.</p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057196" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>

&lt;p&gt;Ok, here&#039;s part 4 – Pages 38-41: The idiot Fractured Flood age is addressed here. Here we see a few pairs of dinosaurs walking towards what appears to be the ark of a far different designed than the old image of the ark made up of just a box with a large door and 2 rows of windows at the very top. The horned dinosaurs shown on page 39 appears to be Hollywood caricatures of Triceratops with the bony studs along the edge of the frills looking more like huge spikes similar to that of Styracosaurus than small blunt studs, making them look a lot like Earl&#039;s Boss B.P. Richfield from Jim Henson&#039;s &lt;em&gt;Dinosaurs&lt;/em&gt; than the real life Triceratops as shown in the fossil evidence. The ark, modeled by an oil tanker, looks similar to that of the ark model as shown in Ham&#039;s crackhouse with a huge wooden empty rudder and a slanted rooftop. And the T.rex is shown to have slapper hands.&lt;/p&gt;

						 <p>Ok, here's part 4 – Pages 38-41: The idiot Fractured Flood age is addressed here. Here we see a few pairs of dinosaurs walking towards what appears to be the ark of a far different designed than the old image of the ark made up of just a box with a large door and 2 rows of windows at the very top. The horned dinosaurs shown on page 39 appears to be Hollywood caricatures of Triceratops with the bony studs along the edge of the frills looking more like huge spikes similar to that of Styracosaurus than small blunt studs, making them look a lot like Earl's Boss B.P. Richfield from Jim Henson's <em>Dinosaurs</em> than the real life Triceratops as shown in the fossil evidence. The ark, modeled by an oil tanker, looks similar to that of the ark model as shown in Ham's crackhouse with a huge wooden empty rudder and a slanted rooftop. And the T.rex is shown to have slapper hands.</p> <p>If Ham thinks the Flood occurred around 4,500 years ago, then explain why the civilizations dated up to that time were completely unaffected by the alleged worldwide Flood. Why was there no evidence or recollections of such an event found in every archaeological area dating to that time?</p> <p>In every book Ham made is the same ol' same ol' size of sheep, fewer than 50 actual kinds, young adult dinosaur representative falsehoods creationists especially Ham made up to counter another idiot claim about dinosaurs becoming extinct because they were too big to fit into the ark and to have Noah fit all those so-called animal representatives inside without having to burst the boat into splinters. Does Ham have any evidence for the fossil record containing mostly sheep sized dinosaurs? No, he just made it all up out of ignorance of the fact that Dinosaurs came in all sorts of shapes and sizes in which some grew to be as big as a train, a garbage truck, a two story house, a family car, etc. Plus, they don't stay small for long. In a ton of cases, dinosaurs grew from hatchling to adult in a matter of a few months. If what Ham claims about Noah taking up animal representatives to be so, then Noah took up only gorillas and allow the other apes to die in the Flood. He took only lions and allow the other cats to die in the Flood. He took only bloodhounds and allow all of the dogs to die out in the Flood. He took up only Brachiosaurus and allow all other sauropods to die out in the Flood. The list goes on and on. When God told Noah He will send two of every kind of animal into the ark, He meant <em>every kind</em> of <em>fully matured</em> animal to be kept alive so they can reproduce and repopulate the world when the Flood ended, not some animal representatives or young adults or babies that can't survive without their parents. What Ham presents here just comes to show how flawed, false, and stupid the creationists' Fractured Flood Story really is.</p> <p>This book claims to feature drawings of what creationists think the dinosaurs may have looked like, but none are based upon fossil evidence. All the dinosaur drawings in the book are taken from other artists' impressions of dinosaurs created exclusively for science fiction books, comics, film and pop culture. Some are copied from various dinosaur sites featuring well known dinosaur art including the likes of <a href="http://www.joetucciarone.com/joe.html">Joe Tucciarone and his wondrous collection of dinosaur art</a>. Others are copied from <em>Jurassic Park</em> and BBC's <em>Walking with Dinosaurs</em>. Whether they're copied from websites or copied from science fiction films, it doesn't matter. Many of them are outdated by a few years in the light of new evidence and studies showing us that theropod dinosaurs have feathers and &quot;clapper hands&quot; and sauropods have mitten forefeet and fleshy nostrils with openings in the front of their faces and not at the top.</p> <p>Plenty wrong on how the dinosaurs are painted grace pages 40 and 41. On page 40, the Velociraptors are shown to have no feathers, 4 big toed feet with no hallux on them, and slapper hands. The next illustration on page 41 is perfect example of how creationists will rely only on misrepresentations of contradictory scientists, pop art, and science fiction for their dinosaur imagery rather than look at the actual skeleton of dinosaurs based on careful studies of their bone structure out of fear of knowing that the so-called secular scientists are right all along when it comes to “millions of years” and evolution, and see the truth about their creation falsehoods get exposed wide open to the public. One dinosaur is a distorted version of Sinosauropteryx drowning in the alleged Flood. It appears to have a row of spines that supports a sheet of skin stretching from its head to the tip of its tail unlike the real Sinosauropteryx that has hair-like feathers on its body containing remnants of color pigments called melanosomes showing us that Sinosauropteryx is mostly reddish brown and white with colored bands on its tail. The other pseudo-dinosaur is shown to have a skinned neck frill – an invention of Hollywood to make the <em>Jurassic Park</em> Dilophosaurus much more scarier than the real life Dilophosaurus.</p> <p>Paleontologists don't make guesses on how old the fossils are – they use dating methods which creationists stupidly claim to be just as unreliable as the Bible is when it comes to dating fossils. They don't make guesses on how dinosaurs cared for their young either. Only creationists can make unproven assumptions like what Ham thinks about how the mother laid and cared for her eggs.</p> <blockquote> <p>The Oviraptor (“egg-robber”) is a great example of how dinosaur discoveries can be misinterpreted. This dinosaur was once thought by secular scientists to have robbed the nest of other dinosaurs. This assumption was made because fossilized bones of an Oviraptor were found very close to the eggs.</p> </blockquote> <p>Early Paleontologists who explored the Gobi Desert found the nest of eggs featuring Oviraptor, an 80 million year old oviraptorid, lying on top of a clutch of eggs with a crushed head. This gave paleontologists the idea that Oviraptor was caught stealing Protoceratops eggs for food. They thought the eggs belonged to Protoceratops, so they named the dinosaur <em>Oviraptor Philoceratops</em> (“egg thief who loves horned faces”) not knowing that these eggs are actually Oviraptor eggs and the supposed egg thief was only guarding them from a sand storm that overtook the mother and her eggs.</p> <blockquote> <p>After modern technology and other fossil finds showed the eggs were probably those of Oviraptor found with them, secular scientists then began considering Oviraptors to be caring parents. That conclusion just creates more unproven ideas.</p> </blockquote> <p>Such as&#8230;</p> <blockquote> <p>One, there's no proof the eggs were deliberately arranged as a nest rather than hurriedly deposited as the mother sought to escape the rising waters of the Global Flood. And two, just because the fossil of the adult is found close to the eggs doesn't mean they were actively caring for their offspring.</p> </blockquote> <p>Ham, you're a total dunce! Since when is there no proof of eggs arranged as a nest when there's scores of proof of eggs arranged neatly in a nest made of soft dirt or sand found throughout the world. Look at Egg Mountain and see scores of Maiasaura nests containing eggs arranged in neat clusters. They don't looked like they were deposited in a hurried way. Look at the nesting grounds of the Titanosaurs and you'll see the same thing, eggs laid and arranged neatly in many hundreds of nests. Ditto for the nesting grounds of Troodon, Hypsilophodon, Protoceratops, and Oviraptor. They, too, have nests containing eggs arranged neatly in nesting patterns. Some laid by smaller dinosaurs show evidence of brooding. None are laid by mothers who were in a hurry to escape the rising waters of the alleged worldwide Flood that never came.</p> <p>Like today's birds, at least some dinosaurs did look after their young. Dinosaurs like Maiasaura and Oviraptor have been shown to be very good parents. After mating, they build a nest, lay their eggs, and look after them, keeping potential egg thieves away from the nests. Some like Troodon even incubate the eggs by brooding them. Sometime later, the eggs hatched and the mother goes to care for their young which stayed in their nest until they're old enough to leave the nest and look after themselves. However, in some cases, when the babies hatched, they leave the nest immediately. That's because their legs are fully developed in comparison with the likes of Maiasaura whose legs were not all the way developed when they hatched from their eggs. So they had to stay in the nest until their legs become strong and fully developed. Then they can leave the nest and join their mother in the herd.</p> <p>Page 42: According to Ham, there are differences and similarities within the alleged 50 or so dinosaur kinds along with dog kind, camel kind, and other animal “kinds.” This is the way creationists twist the process of evolution around so that their followers won't suspect that what creationists are actually teaching about “variations within kinds” is in fact evolution, the very same thing creationists stupidly regards as a lie, yet turn around and invoke evolution when it suits their idiot purpose. This just comes to show just how flawed, false, hypocritical, and stupid Ham's falsehood about animal species really is. Whenever he makes such claims about there are many varieties of dogs, yet they're still dogs, he actual meant that these animals are in fact cloning machines that have malfunctioned and produced demented versions of themselves over a period of time. Soon such clones find themselves changing into another animal – something creationists don't want their followers to know about lest evolution is proven true and “creation science” is proven false. Thus, Ham and other creationists have to do whatever it takes to hide the fact that the so-called “differences within a kind” is in fact the direct result of an animal changing into another animal, just as what we exactly see in the mountains of physical evidence supporting evolution. Plants and animals changing into different forms over a period of time (i.e. Heterodontosaurus changing into a Triceratops, a maniraptor changing into a bird, an iguanodont changing into a hadrosaur, etc.).</p> <p>More flawed dinosaur images include a naked, scaly-skinned Velociraptor with slapper hands, no hallux, and a Deinonychus head menacing a male Protoceratops and an unknown theropod with four-fingered hands. 3 heads of Looney's ceratopsian impressions are shown on page 42. Each are painted to look the same as the other although they have different horn and frill arrangements. Of course this is the artist way of fooling readers into thinking that this is what Ham is talking about when it comes to “a lot of variation within the same kind” without knowing that this is Ham's way of twisting evolution to suit his idiot teachings.</p> <p>Page 43: There is a mentioning of some unusual foot tracks indicating an attack in progress found at the <a href="http://www.climb-utah.com/Moab/moabdino.htm">Copper Ridge Sauropod Track Site</a> in Utah (more of a stalking in progress than attacking) in which Ham claims he knows to have occurred after sin. Oh, sure! Blame it all on Adam whom creationists use as a scapegoat for all the bad things in this world out of ignorance of the Bible actually saying that Adam was only cursed to till the ground and sweat for his own food. The Bible said nothing about predators occurring right after Adam ate the apple. It only said that Adam had to work and sweat in the fields to grow his own food.</p> <p><a href="http://blogs.smithsonianmag.com/dinosaur/2011/06/dinosaur-diamond-following-an-injured-allosaurus/">In reality</a>, according to Brian Switek, the prints were not made at the same time. The theropod prints were made after the sauropod which is attributed to Camerasaurus had passed in the area. Thus, there were no signs of stalking or attacking being made at all. What Ham claims about the site is entirely all made up.</p> <p>Pages 44-45: What is shown in both illustrations is all imagination. Creationists made everything all up about animals miraculously living in harmony (perhaps at God's command according to Ham) in cages and stables inside the ark and be cared for by only 8 people out of ignorance of the flaws and problems the animals face when it comes to parasites, diseases, lack of food preservation (plants being organic beings are perishable), stress, lack of exercise, and animal wastes littering the floors. Just ask those who operate illegal puppy mills and the people of Africa who was captured, herded on board wooden ships, and were taken to America and into slavery against their will.</p> <p>In the so-called four fast facts section, there is a mentioning of a large ship called the Tessarakonteres (Greek for “40 rowed” or “forty”) which Ham claims to be a massive wooden ship built around the same time as the ark itself. That's false. The Tessarakonteres was a 425 foot long, 80 foot high Greek wooden ship built for Ptolemy IV in 3rd Century BC during the Hellenistic period. This wooden ship was built only to be a showpiece while Noah's ark was built only to save 8 people and a menagerie of animals from the violent waters of the alleged Flood. The Tessarakonteres is often exploited by creationists to build up and counter strawman claims about people rejecting the notion about a large ship being well built and sailed by Noah and his family due to them being “ignorant farmers.”</p> <p>Also in the section, the Ark is claimed to be measured 510 feet long (What happened to the 450 feet long measurements?) and is capable of surviving 100 foot waves. Any proof that the ark can and did survive onslaughts of 100-foot waves? What about 200, even 500 foot waves? If not, then this is something creationists entirely made up out of ignorance of the fact that a wooden boat can never survive onslaughts of waves of any size even when it has edge-jointed planking on them for support.</p> <p><strong>Real Age 4: Explode</strong> After ruling the world for over 160 million years, the dinosaurs suddenly faced <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cretaceous_Extinction">a major catastrophe</a> when a large meteorite fell from space, crash landed on earth, and explode, creating a rippling affect that can be felt for thousands of miles. The meteor, responsible for the creation of the Chicxulub crater, exploded into a massive rain of burning debris that rained on most of the planet, causing a massive firestorm that consumed anything in its path, including the dinosaurs living in the area. The explosion also triggered tsunamis that engulf regions near the site of the impact, washing dinosaurs living in the regions out to sea and trigger volcanoes to erupt, spewing out ash and burning debris that showered much of the area near by, killing and wiping out organisms, including dinosaurs, by the thousands. When it was all over, life for dinosaurs was never the same. Those who are able to survive the impact, face a tougher world where clouds of iridium dust covered the world, blocking sunlight that plants need to thrive and temperatures either rise or plummet dramatically depending on seasons. The formation of the Deccan Traps also played a role in seeing the demise of all non-avian dinosaurs along with pterosaurs, marine reptiles and ammonites. When it was all over, every part of the world became void of dinosaurs like T.rex, Anatotitan, and Triceratops, pterosaurs like Quetzalcolatlus, and marine reptiles like Tylosaurus. Only avian dinosaurs we call birds, mammals, crocodiles, and insects survive the event, paving the way for mammals to come in and take over, filling up the niches the dinosaurs have left behind.</p> <p>Continues next post&#8230;</p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057196" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>

&lt;p&gt;Page 23 (bottom right): I have no patience with creationists. In fact I can never see or listen to their stupid lies without throwing huge screaming, bawling fits. Especially when they enjoy force feeding their idiocy down my throat whether I like it or not. No matter what I do to either shut them up or try reasoning with them, they won&#039;t quit, they won&#039;t listen, they just continue on with their persistence in hopes of winning me to their side. When they try to impose what they claimed to be differences in opinion, I take it as a threat. A major threat to everything I stood for and learned from concerning dinosaurs. Because of what happened years ago when I first found myself exposed to this idiocy, I get afraid that if I started lecturing on the realities of dinosaurs to some schoolkids like I used to in a enjoyable and confident way before I was exposed to this idiocy, some little kid would pipe up, “Where you there?” or similar statements that would quickly raise my ire and compel me to play this insolent game with that child. If this happens to you and to me, rather than playing this game with the child and answering the insolent question, “Excuse me, but were you there?” with what Ham thinks the answer will be, how about we try countering it patiently with this – “Excuse me, but you&#039;re being very &lt;a href=&quot;http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/insolent&quot;&gt;insolent&lt;/a&gt; when you ask me that question. Knock it off.” or other similar statements.&lt;/p&gt;

						 <p>Page 23 (bottom right): I have no patience with creationists. In fact I can never see or listen to their stupid lies without throwing huge screaming, bawling fits. Especially when they enjoy force feeding their idiocy down my throat whether I like it or not. No matter what I do to either shut them up or try reasoning with them, they won't quit, they won't listen, they just continue on with their persistence in hopes of winning me to their side.

If this happens to you and to me, rather than playing this game with the child and answering the insolent question, “Excuse me, but were you there?” with what Ham thinks the answer will be, how about we try countering it patiently with this – “Excuse me, but you're being very <a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/insolent">insolent</a> when you ask me that question. Knock it off.” or other similar statements.</p> <p>Page 24-25: All about Pterosaurs painted wrong and inaccurate. For example, Eudimorphodon, a Late Jurassic pterosaur is pictured to look like a large long-tailed crested pterosaur straight out of Hollywood films and science fiction comic books. Pterodactyl (or more correctly named Pterodactylus) is pictured to look like a tailless Pteranodon than what it's supposed to look like based on fossil evidence. Dimorphodon is pictured to have a flat triangular head while the actual head of Dimorphodon is round and bulky. And since when is it just an idea scientists have when it comes to how pterosaurs like Quetzalcolatlus move on the ground when they're not flying? Sure it is thought that pterosaurs walked on all fours, but that's based upon careful study of the anatomy of pterosaurs, not a mere idea they just thought of from their heads. Thanks to the discovery of pterosaur footprints, it is now known for certain that pterosaurs did walk on all fours rather than two.</p> <p>Page 26-27: Ditto for the marine reptiles in which Ham stupidly claims they're once vegetarians before the Fall of man. Anyone who studies the teeth of these marine reptiles knows beyond doubt that the teeth of these Mesozoic bad boys are ill-equipped to shred poor nutritional plant material. They are built to spear fish, mollusks, cephalopods, and each other. Page 27 on the lower right hand corner shows not Leviathan, but an old image of Tylosaurus, as appeared in so many vintage dinosaur books, stupidly branded as Leviathan and swimming alongside Sarcosuchus, the Supercroc, that is actually a freshwater crocodile from 90 million years ago that lived in lakes and rivers in what is now the Sahara Desert in real life.</p> <p>Comparing animals that produce heat and electricity with extinct animals like Mosasaurus is worthless because not only is there no evidence for fire breathing marine reptiles (let alone fire breathing dinosaurs), this is entirely the imagination of the creationists who pretended that there were such things as fire-breathing marine reptiles and dinosaurs, say that what they imagined is all true, and then invoke the bombardier beetle, lightning bug, electric eel, and the like to justify their imaginary claim and pose it all as fact, claiming these fire breathing monsters are real because the Bible in the Book of Job chapter 41, verses 18-21 allegedly tells them so out of total ignorance of the lack of evidence for the existence of such creatures. Also the actual anatomy of the marine reptiles based on fossil evidence shows that they have far less flexible bodies and have no armor plating on them; that can't compare with Leviathan who is nothing more than a eel-like creature out of Jewish mythology with a fiery breath, impenetrable armor, and a coiling serpentine body.</p> <p>Pages 30-31: Same as comparing theropod teeth with modern animals with sharp teeth. Ham likes to play mind games using certain animal teeth he and other creationists single out to suit them for their idiot teachings. He uses them to prove his falsehood about no death occurring before the fall, featuring this stupid, laugh-riot, imaginary, pretend scenario depicting Adam not being afraid when T.rex opens its mouth to show off its sharp teeth because he allegedly knew that T.rex allegedly ate only plants - certain plants, branches, vegetables, and fruit such as pumpkins and watermelons – anything to get huge gut aches along the way because its stomach was built exclusively to digest only meat, not plants – what a total howler! He and other creationists does this by making false comparisons between theropod teeth and herbivorous/omnivorous mammalian teeth simply because they're both curved, triangular-shaped, and pointed. Never mind the true difference between the two with the mammailian canines being thin, flat, and accompanied with incisors and molars, while theropods teeth are thick, conical, resembling railroad spikes, and in a single set. Dinosaur teeth are built completely different than the teeth of modern mammals, and yet Ham wants you to stupidly believe that theropod teeth are no different than the teeth of modern mammals that engage in either a herbivorous or an omnivorous diet. Pages 30-31 shows silhouettes of dinosaurs and modern mammals with painted images of teeth placed between them. The reader is then told to see which animal has that kind of teeth. This is give the reader a false impression that these teeth of modern animals is no different than that of the teeth of dinosaurs. Dumb guess. Dumb impression. The reality is that none of the teeth match. For example, on the bottom of page 30, there's a curved tooth that resembled that of Tyrannosaurus shown between silhouettes of a Spinosaurus and a pig. Both don't have such teeth. Spinosaurus have one set of teeth that are straight. All the better to spear fish with. The pig, a male version, has long, flat curvy canines and incisors in the front of the jaws while the back of the jaws has only chewing molars. Typical for an omnivorous mammal. Heterodontosaurus (shown erroneously to look like a coelurosaur) has 4 short canine-like teeth. 2 on each front side of the jaw in comparison with a male musk deer has only 2 much longer tusks sticking out in front of its upper jaw. Mosasaurus has only one set of massive sharp, conical teeth while a bear has only 3 sets, molar, flat canines, and incisors. In real life, T.rex has <a href="http://archosaurmusings.wordpress.com/2011/12/04/teeth-like-steak-knives-or-bananas-or-well-tyrannosaur-teeth/">huge sharp, rigged, deep-rooted teeth</a> that can easily penetrate bone as well as skin and flesh. It's worthless to compare that with a simple hedgehog with puny incisors in front of its mouth, just as it is worthless to compare the one set of sharp teeth of Compsognathus (erroneously shown with two fingered hands) with the 3 set teeth of a fruit bat with flat canines, incisors, and molars.</p> <p>Backtrack to Pages 28-29: Here's the second idiot age: Fearless. Here dinosaurs are seen in the Garden of Eden alongside Adam and Eve – all scaly skinned and slapper handed. Two dinosaurs, a T.rex and a coelurosaur, are drinking from a river while what appears to be a sauropod swimming by as pictured in vintage dinosaur books. Either that or it's a serpentine animal made to look like a sauropod. Whatever. Behind Adam and Eve there's what appears to be an upright standing Saurolophus, a Late Cretaceous hadrosaur, looking on while a Pteranodon flies overhead. This is hands down make-believe, entirely invented by creationists who envisioned dinosaurs and other prehistoric life frolicking together alongside modern animals out of ignorance of the fossil record being completely void of evidence for such a scenario.</p> <p>This is Ham's definition of a world that's “very good” where everything is as perfect as what the creationists imagined it to be and wants everyone to believe and accept it as truth with no death (never mind plant death), no sorrow, no predation, no pain, no tears, rainbows, etc. Sorry, Ham. This is a fairy tale. Everything you preach and teach concerning dinosaur history is not to be believed nor to be accepted as truth. Other than your emotional pity parties and your “Byebull”stories, you have not presented not a single trace of physical evidence for this scenario. Thus, we, including myself, reserve the right to 100% reject everything you preach and have pity parties over simply because you lie, slander, hate, brainwash, and abuse Christianity, God and His Word only for money, power, and wealth. Heck. Your &quot;preaching to the choir&quot; is so maliciously slanderous that even <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/blog:ham-gets-kicked-out-by-his-own-followers-ha-ha">your own followers have turned against you!</a></p> <p><strong>Real Age 2: Expand:</strong> During the Mid to Late Triassic Period, dinosaurs were a minority in comparison with large labyrinthodont amphibians and archosaurs such as the phytosaurs, raurisuchans and the rhynchosaurs that were common back then. At that time, all continents were forged together into one big supercontinent called Pangaea (meaning “All Earth”). With no oceans to block their way, Dinosaurs and other land creatures can easily travel all over the world without having to swim across the ocean to get from one place to another. By the end of the Triassic Period, however, so many archosaurs and primitive amphibians have died out probably due to huge volcanic eruptions that occurred as Pangaea began to break apart about 202 to 191 million years ago. This greatly paved the way for the dinosaurs to expand and spread out all over the world starting at the end of the Triassic Period and continuing onward throughout the Jurassic Period and throughout the Expand Age.</p> <p>Page 32-33: More of Ham's fairy tale consists of claims of &quot;secular scientists&quot; guessing on which animal ate what just by looking at its teeth (Never mind the other features paleontologist look at to determine what an animal ate concerning the size of its stomach, leg structure, and position of eyes.) and a chart featuring paintings of plants being compared with fossil impressions of such plants to give the reader the impression that nothing has changed over time and that they're all clones - exact copies of themselves. This is all made up out of total ignorance of such plants being the last surviving species of plants that have manage to survived while all other species have died out. One the bottom of Page 33 is a wrongfully drawn and painted Segisaurus made to look like a two legged lizard with no dew claw (or hallux) and scaly skin. Segisaurus is a small dinosaur that lived 183 million years ago during the Jurassic Period known for a fragmentary specimen that lacks a head. It preyed on insects and scavenged on carcasses. And yet, Ham stupidly asserts that this small dinosaur would have eaten vegetation, which would have given this small one a huge gut ache if that happened.</p> <p>Ham would like to make you believe that predation is all a part of the fictional fallen world made up of diseases, predation, tears, rainbows, worms that survive only on living hosts, anything creationists invent and made up to give a false sense of comfort to anyone bothered by all the bad things in this world out of sheer ignorance of the factual reason that if all these things are bad, then so is God who created and instigated absolutely everything, including what creationists and sensitive people claimed to be bad. Nowhere does the Bible say anything about predation being bad part of the curse. What creationists think some verses mean, such as in Romans 8, actually refers only to humans, not animals, not plants, any any natural force. In fact God actually endorse and support predation throughout the Bible in many spots. In some verses, God sent out lions, bears, and other wild beasts to devour boys who mock a prophet's baldness and people who didn't worship him in exile (i.e. 2 Kings 2:23-24, 2 Kings 17:24-26).</p> <p>Page 34-35: Ham has got to be one of the most emotionally charged creation idiot around. Using emotions and a dinosaur puppet to brainwash people, especially children, into bowing to his idiocy, which he does in the next few pages. He claims the ushering of the third idiot age, the Fallen age, is in his words “the saddest day in the history of the universe.” That's because Adam and Eve out of freewill disobeyed God's command by eating the forbidden fruit from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, thus the whole universe is cursed because of this with natural disasters, predation, disease, every so-called bad thing that in reality make up an otherwise huge, healthy, active ecosystem made up of natural forces shaping and reshaping our resilient world in a most positive way.</p> <p>Pages 36-37: Ham proselytizes the reader into following Jesus and show an example of the alleged results of the fictional saddest day in the history of the universe in form of a painting depiction of dinosaurs being at each others' throat as depicted in so many science fiction films, literature, even in dinosaur books made for children. The reality is that this is a very small fraction compared with the more huge aspects of the dinosaur world that's very benign and docile mainly made up of large herds of dinosaurs wandering about peacefully in search of fresh pastures to crop and browse on. They mate and raise their young every year at a certain time, and above all learn to successfully survive in a scenario no different than what we see in modern animals of today.</p> <p><strong>Real Age 3: Elevated:</strong> The Cretaceous Period saw the dinosaurs elevated into a dominant force. They spread out all over the world, developing into weird and wonderful forms that allows them to adapt themselves into every environment they found themselves in whether in cold or warm climates. It's easy for us to think that dinosaurs only lived in warm lush tropical environments as shown in pop culture. But the reality is that dinosaurs survived in all sorts of environments, including the cold winter regions where it is dark most of the year. Even after the great extinction of the non-avian dinosaurs, dinosaurs that survived continuously prove themselves time and time again to be one of the most elevated, most resilient, most adaptive group of organisms on earth.</p> <p>Continues next post&#8230;</p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057196" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>

&lt;p&gt;Onward to part 2&amp;#8230;. The two dinosaurs and one pterosaur is shown in front of a city background. The Stegosaurus is shown with no throat pouch and 3 toes on each forefoot. The pterosaur that resembled Pteranodon has a beakless jaw with a rounded snout with teeth inside. Corythosaurus is shown to have scale-like patterns on its duck-like beak. These incorrect drawings and paintings of dinosaurs can be forgivable if they&#039;re made for a dinosaur book that deals with reality based on physical evidence, but even if they were illustrated for a dinosaur book that deals with reality based on evidence, they are still wrong. These illustrations are made by Bill Looney (a fitting last name to describe a creationist like Bill and Ken, don&#039;t you think?) who never seem to get his dinosaur imagery right, just like all creationists who draw and painted dinosaurs for their own idiot literature. They only draw what they want dinosaurs to be like, taking their inspirations only from science fiction, mythology, and pop culture, never mind the actual dinosaur imagery based on the studies of their bone structure.&lt;/p&gt;

These illustrations are made by Bill Looney (a fitting last name to describe a creationist like Bill and Ken, don't you think?) who never seem to get his dinosaur imagery right, just like all creationists who draw and painted dinosaurs for their own idiot literature. They only draw what they want dinosaurs to be like, taking their inspirations only from science fiction, mythology, and pop culture, never mind the actual dinosaur imagery based on the studies of their bone structure.</p> <p>In Ham's eyes,</p> <blockquote> <p>“And though the majority of people today might believe that dinosaurs lived millions of years ago, the majority are wrong on this.”</p> </blockquote> <p>Why he thinks they are wrong on this even when the fossil evidence clearly proves that the majority are right all along on this? Simple. According to Ham, the reason the majority of people are wrong in believing that dinosaurs lived millions of years ago is because the Bible allegedly tells us so. Sorry, Ham. That's no reason why we should disregard the truthful fact that dinosaurs lived millions of years ago based on scientific and fossil evidence! In the creationists' eyes, the Bible is true, therefore everything else is wrong – a direct example of creationists being closed-minded bigots who refuses to listen to anything that contradicts scripture, even if they're proven right and the scripture is proven wrong. This kind of attitude is no different than that of Martin Luther, a religious bigot who founded the protestant movement and launched a campaign to exterminate the Jewish people in every way possible.</p> <p>Pages 12-13: A painting of dinosaur displays in a museum is shown here. They're painted wrong. Especially in the hip area. In the background there is a skeleton of Deinonychus with two parts of the pelvic bone missing from the mount. Anything to hide from the kids the fact that dromeosaurs have hips that resembled that of birds. There's a small paragraph below on the lower left hand corner that could raise the irony meter up sky high.</p> <blockquote> <p>“When you visit most museums that feature dinosaur collections, you will see a mix of fact and fiction.”</p> </blockquote> <p>Ken Ham's crackhouse itself has a huge mixbag of fact and fiction – 90% fiction, 10% fact.</p> <blockquote> <p>“Some scientists draw conclusions and make assumptions about the lived of dinosaurs based on very little actual evidence”</p> </blockquote> <p>And such “scientists” are none other than creationists who draw conclusions and make assumptions based only on what they made up from their heads and very little actual evidence that agrees with their idiocy.</p> <blockquote> <p>“They then present that as truth in very detailed multimedia displays.”</p> </blockquote> <p>And at Ken Ham's crackhouse such things do occur. The Creation “Museum” in Kentucky is notorious for displays depicting only make believe based on what they made up from their heads, their distortions and exploitations of the Bible and the fossil record, and present them all as &quot;truth&quot; in every form of multimedia they have from animatronic models to videos showing nothing but slander, falsehood, and propaganda. Anyone who says that the so-called museum is awesome is insane and out of his/her mind.</p> <p>In his distorted way of viewing the Age of Dinosaurs, Ham presents the reader his 7 made-up “ages” to describe his make-believe scenario of dinosaurs and humans thousands of years ago, which I countered with my own version of the 7 ages of dinosaurs based on actual evidence. His ages represent 7&#160;F-words which he thinks are important events that affected the dinosaurs in a big way, formed, fearless, fallen, flood, faded, found, and fiction. I counter this with 7&#160;E-words of reality, evolved, expand, elevated, exploded, extinction, exception, and enthrall in the first part of my essay. I'll give you a much more detail explanation of the 7 ages of reality in comparison with Ham's idiot 7 ages of pseudo-history later.</p> <p>Pages 14: How to be an insolent brat by Ken Ham. Instructions: First you go to the scientists who truthfully claim that dinosaurs lived millions of years ago, say to them in a very nice but insolent way, “Excuse me, where you there?” which translates to “Were you there to see the dinosaurs when they first came to existence? Were you there to see them alive? Where you there to see them die out?” Follow these instructions to initiate displays of insolence in the name of God in front of paleontologists who knows rather than believe without a doubt that dinosaurs did lived and died out millions of years before the first humans came about thanks to scores of actual evidence confirming what paleontologists have been telling people all along. While Ham stupidly parades his not finding any photographs or labels on fossils that tells completely about their appearance and age fallacy (never mind the real work paleontologists do in reconstructing and restoring dinosaurs and other prehistoric life based on fossil evidence, which are made up of not just bones, but footprints, skin, feather, and organ imprints, eggs, and dung, and comparing them with plants and animals which are closely related to them), he deliberately ignores the real life in the fields where every time paleontologists unearth dinosaur remains, they find no traces of human remains and relics in and around the bones, confirming the notion of dinosaurs living millions of years ago before humans is true. They also find traces of decayed radioisotopes within the rock that accompanies the fossils. This allows paleontologists to use radiometeric dating to determine the actual date of the fossil and the rock the fossil is encased in. But of course creationists would step in and say that it is flawed. Only a few examples have been shown to be flawed while all the rest is shown to be right and accurate.</p> <p>Another wrongful illustration on pages 14-17, this time it is of Carnotaurus, an Abelisaurid that lived 100-90 million years ago in what is now Argentina. Everything about Carnotaurus is wrong including the shape of the head, longer forelimbs with 4 long clawed fingers, and no traces of bony studs. Even the skeleton itself is illustrated wrong, especially in the hip area. Doesn't Looney ever see an actual image of a Carnotaurus skeleton in a museum to know what the dinosaur really look like through fossil evidence? Apparently not. Note on the short page of 16 where there's a small paragraph about recent dinosaur discoveries include dinosaur fossils with “flexable blood vessels and other soft parts despite supposedly being [sic] tens of millions of years old.” This is a huge misrepresentation of Mary Schweitzer's discovery of a T.rex femur with soft tissues inside. Creationists constantly use this discovery to discredit the notion of “millions of years” simply by distorting and misrepresent Mary's work on the fossil out of arrogant malice. To get the huge lowdown on how creationists distort the work of Mary and her discovery of the fossil see <a href="http://www.talkreason.org/articles/DinoBlood.cfm">Dino Blood Redux.</a></p> <p>Page 18: Small paragraph below a painting of what it looks like Massospondylus hatchlings (one incorrectly showing three fingers) briefly tells about this early Jurassic dinosaur before claiming,</p> <blockquote> <p>There are reports that fossil egg nests have been discovered, though not all scientists agree that dinosaurs formed nests.</p> </blockquote> <p>Since when do we have scientists not agreeing that dinosaurs formed nests when there's scores of evidence that clearly tell us that dinosaurs can and have formed nests with great skill in the past? Obviously this is one of Ham's idiot claims of denial made up without proof of evidence for it.</p> <p>Page 19: Age 1: Formed - Where Ham gives the lowdown on how God allegedly created dinosaurs on the same day God created man in His own image supposedly as told in Genesis 1:24-27 according to Ham himself, and then brings on this stupid.</p> <blockquote> <p>Because land animals were made before man and woman, if anyone tells you that dinosaurs existed before people, you can say, “they sure did – they existed probably just a few hours before people!”</p> </blockquote> <img src="http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b18/Crazyharp81602/2010-05-17-facepalm-hi-res.jpg" height="430" width="650" alt="2010-05-17-facepalm-hi-res.jpg" class="image" /> <p>What a laugh riot! This, the concept of dinosaurs being created on the same day man was created is all made up out of ignorance of Genesis 1:24-25, where it said that God made the animals before man, contradicting Genesis 2:19, where it said that God made the animals <em>right after</em> He created man.</p> <p>Page 20: Ham brings on the same illogical stupidity he parades in other idiot literature of his when it comes to the length of days. He tries to explain why God just could not create everything over millions of years, as some people would try to say, claiming that if God did create everything over a period of 6 million years and then rested for one million years, then our week will be millions and millions of years long. Thus, the seven 24 hour week period would not make sense. Yeah as long as <a href="http://www.godandscience.org/youngearth/longdays.html">certain Bible verses</a>, like the one in which God tells the people of Israel to observe the 7 year Sabbath after tilling the ground for 6 years (Leviticus 25:2-4), is ignored completely.</p> <p>It's super easy to tell the creationists, “You're stupid.” every time they blare out laugh riot statements and pile on one stinkin' lie after another. I can never listen to those dunces without getting way too stressed and emotional over their constant lying, slander, hypocrisy, and dehumanizing anyone who don't bow to their idiocy.</p> <p>Page 21-22: Two timelines is shown here. One what Ham thinks is fiction, the Evolutionary timeline. The other what Ham thinks is fact, the so-called Biblical timeline according the Archbishop James Usher who claims the earth was formed on October of 4004 BC which according to Ham is about 6,000 years ago. 4004 BC is actual the time when the pyramids of Egypt was being built. <a href="http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2011/01/dave_andy_and_georgia_and_thei.php">According to PZ,</a></p> <blockquote> <p>The city of Jericho — it's in the Bible, look it up — is 11,000 years old. Isn't it remarkable that a city with a population of zero sprang up on a planet that didn't exist at the time? The chthonic dingleberries of Answers in Genesis would apparently have you believe one of our oldest urban centers must have been floating in the primordial chaos, waiting for Jehovah to conjure up the Jordan river and the West Bank and the Middle East and the Mediterranean and the firmament and the sun and stars.</p> <p>Six thousand years ago, the Plano culture was hunting bison on the Great Plains. The predynastic Egyptians of the Naqada period were colonzing the Nile. The precursors to the Indus River civilization were making copper tools and growing barley. The Mesopotamians were building city states. The people of the Hongshan culture were carving jade dragons in northeastern China; the Yangshao were producing silk along the Yangtze river; the Majiabang people were cultivating rice and pigs. The ancient Britons were building tombs and erecting wooden posts on Salisbury plain, precursors to Stonehenge. The Funnelbeaker people were trading pottery across northern Europe, while the Chasséen people were living in a village near the site of modern Paris. All this at a time when the human population of planet Earth, according to this risible trio, was two. What did Adam and Eve do? Commute a lot?</p> <p>People were manipulating the precursors to modern wheat, rice, barley, taro, and soy at least 9000 years ago; Sumerians had invented irrigation 7000 years ago; and Mesoamericans began to tweak teosinte by artificial selection about 6000 years ago. The crops we grow are the product of millennia of selection and cultivation, and show the marks of our ancient biotechnology. The bread that God casually commanded Adam to sweat over and eat for all the days of his life after the Fall was already the product of thousands of years of development.</p> <p>A middle-aged woman in northern Israel died and was buried with her puppy dog…twelve thousand years ago. We know the first dogs with skeletal indications of domestication appeared over 30,000 years ago. What kind of crazy cosmology do the loons of AiG have when they have to account for a world they claim is 24,000 years younger than Fido and Rover?</p> <p>There is a colonial colony of shrubs in Tasmania called King's Lomatia that is probably over 40,000 years old. They can't produce sexually, so they've just been propagating vegatively, clone after clone after clone, right through the whole creation of the world, according to a certain small dismal clan of meretricians. In fact, those plants were well into late middle age when the god of the Hebrews purportedly decided to create real estate.</p> </blockquote> <p>Ham's idiot view only makes sense when every historical evidence for civilizations older than 6,000 years, like the ones above, is completely ignored. According to Ham the Earth is 6,000 years old because the Bible tells us so through the genealogy of Adam in Genesis chapter 5. Ham and other creationists claims it's complete. Yeah, as long as the evidence for the Bible being out of order, telling nothing about the exact age of the earth, and having chock loads of missing texts, especially in the original Hebrew text, is ignored out of existence.</p> <p><a href="http://sensuouscurmudgeon.wordpress.com/2011/05/06/aig-all-scientific-dating-methods-are-wrong/">From a commenter in the Sensuous Curmudgeon,</a></p> <blockquote> <p>Well, what do you expect when you’re dealing with professional con-persons who are sociopaths and pathological liars. The irony is that nowhere in the Bible is written anything they claim, including and most especially the 6,000 year old earth. That age is an ASSUMPTION based on the ESTIMATED ages of an incomplete lineage of people not all of whom were directly related. This chronology was published in 1650 by Bishop Ussher of Ireland. Shame on AIG for claiming that the age of the earth was God’s word because it isn’t. It’s Ussher’s word and he didn’t get the “word” through divine revelation. No, he figured it out. Not only do the denizens of AIG, and I mean all of them, lie persistently about science but they lie pathologically about their own cult!</p> </blockquote> <p>Ham thinks the evolutionary timeline is fiction and wants it to be that way out of ignorance of the mountain size evidence for the so-called fictional timeline which clearly shows the evolutionary timeline to be historically fact. And one of the areas proven to be historically fact based on hardcore physical evidence is the time when dinosaurs ruled the earth millions of years ago.</p> <p><strong>Real Age 1: Evolved:</strong> Physical and Scientific evidence clearly tells us that dinosaurs first appeared on earth around 230 million years ago. They evolved from archosaurian ancestors like Marasuchus and Lewisuchus, dinosauriforms that lived during the Middle Triassic Period. From such ancestors comes the first in the long line of dinosaurs such as Herrerasaurus and Eoraptor, two dinosaurs whose remains were discovered in Argentina in South America, the continent that serves as the cradle of dinosaur civilization.</p> <p>Continued Next Post&#8230;.</p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057196" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>

&lt;img src=&quot;http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b18/Crazyharp81602/image003.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;image003.jpg&quot; class=&quot;image&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Stupid. That&#039;s one word that describes this latest in Answers in Genesis&#039; Ken Ham&#039;s dumb idiot book series targeting children called &lt;em&gt;Dinosaurs for Kids&lt;/em&gt;. Dinosaurs for Kids: one of the most Google searched terms around. Google the phrase and you&#039;ll get a whopping 8,900,000 results. The perfect phrase for Ham to tactically use for the title to his latest in dino idiocy which is about the same as the any dino idiocy he and others like him wrote. Nothing&#039;s changed here except for the illustrations- all bigotry, lies, hypocrisy, Bible distortions, and fabrications of both mythology and physical evidence piled together and flattened down to about 64 pages worth of disgusting slop written in a way an adult talks to a 5 year old in Kindergarten to the point where a gullible child can easily lap it all up like a dog.
&lt;p&gt;All creationist literature about dinosaurs is nothing more than one big science fiction made up of the following: Allegedly, according to the Book of Genesis in the Bible, they were all created to live alongside man and eat only plants and fruits until Adam and Eve sinned, leading the dinosaurs to become vicious and eat each other as depicted in science fiction and pop culture. Then the Flood came and drown the dinosaurs except for few handful of young baby representatives that were taken into the ark, leave the ark, and die awhile later due to “Post-Flood” conditions, forgotten, yet sighted alive as “dragons”, until their remains became discovered by man thousands of years later who use them to “lie” about the world being billions of years rather than 6,000 years old and that dinosaurs never lived with humans and everything just evolved. Then came the proselytizing which occurs at the very end of their fairy tale, filled with rants, Bible distortions, hate, condemnations, false scenarios of what will happen if everyone rejects the Bible, and invitations to ask Jesus into your heart and convert to Christianity. Every form of Creationist literature have such a format, and &lt;em&gt;Dinosaurs for Kids&lt;/em&gt; is no exception.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ham&#039;s knowledge of dinosaurs is terrible. Even the dinosaurs are illustrated wrong with many derived from pop culture and paraphernalia such as &lt;em&gt;Walking with Dinosaurs&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Jurassic Park&lt;/em&gt;, and dinosaur books made by DK Publishing. Theropods are shown without feathers, claimed to be only vegetarians before the Fall of man, and displaying forelimbs wrongly drawn to be slappers not clappers. As I go through this book, I&#039;ll make sure to note the flaws found on each dinosaur illustrated in this book out of ignorance of the fossil evidence based on careful studies of their bone structure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All creationists writings are very hard to read. Even I, a lot of times, find myself getting stress headaches reading this garbage cesspool of denial, lies, hatred, condemnations, bigotry, slander, ignorance, abuse, the whole nine yards. I remember the time I borrowed a creationist book from a neighbor called &lt;em&gt;Unlocking the Mysteries of Creation&lt;/em&gt;, a book where in every page huge words and statements all capitalized and sometimes in bold screamed out in front of my face as if this book is all nothing but rantings of the creationist who authored this book. No truths, no valid evidence, just loud screaming rants, fabrications and distortions of evidences, hoaxes, myths, including those already debunked, outright slander, propaganda, the whole nine yards. This book in lots of ways is no different. Like on page 3 for instance, where the word “fiction” is all capitalized to rant out that “we live in the [alleged] age of fiction – millions of years, evolution – .. ” Try “we live in the age of FACTS – scientific evidence confirming the world to be billions of years old and everything changed (or evolved) over a period of time.” But of course you&#039;d rather live in your own age of fiction and get little kids to become just like you, force feeding slop down the throats of others whether they like it or not.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Page 3 contains the so-called “7&amp;#160;F&#039;s of Dinosaur History” a bunch of F-words (formed, fearless, fallen, flood, faded, found, fiction) representing what Ham wants us to believe about dinosaurs based on only one thing – the Bible, a book which speaks nothing of what creationists claim about evolution, science, dinosaurs (other than birds), and above all the age of the earth. There&#039;s no evidence for a 6,000 year old earth where dinosaurs lived with man at one time. Everything Ham claims in &lt;em&gt;Dinosaurs for Kids&lt;/em&gt; is not to be believed. Nor it is to be accepted as truth. What evidence creationists put down in all their literature all made up – fabrications of evidence and mythology, ancient text and folklore, blatant lies, hoaxes, hatred, rants, slander, and condemnations of hell to anyone who rejects their idiocy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think I know where he got that concept from – &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/the-seven-f-s-of-young-earth-creationism&quot;&gt;here!&lt;/a&gt; He must have invented the idea of such a concept the moment he saw my 7&amp;#160;F&#039;s article exposing how creationists invented their so-called biblical history from the ground up. If so, then blame it all on me for unwittingly provide Ham with all the fodder he needs to get his stupid lies more convincing to the gullible than ever before.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How about I counter this by presenting to you dear readers with &lt;strong&gt;The 7&amp;#160;E&#039;s of Dinosaur Reality&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Evolved&lt;/strong&gt; – Dinosaurs evolved from archosaurian ancestors. This is confirmed clearly through the fossil record that also reveals to us that humans were never around when dinosaurs were alive millions of years ago. The first humans appear 60 million years after all the non-avian dinosaurs have died out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Expand&lt;/strong&gt; – First appearing in the Early Triassic Period around 230 million years ago, dinosaurs eventually expand over time to cover every part of the globe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Elevated&lt;/strong&gt; – They elevated themselves into dominate life forms, ruling all over the world for over 160 million years on every continent on earth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Exploded&lt;/strong&gt; – Then, 65 million years ago, a huge meteor exploded when it crashed into what is now the Gulf of Mexico, creating a worldwide disaster that affected 70% of all life on earth, including dinosaurs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Extinction&lt;/strong&gt; – Dinosaurs faced extinction due to the affects of the meteor that formed what is now called the Chicxulub crater, leaving behind a large legacy of fossils, footprints, and eggs to tell us their story.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Exception&lt;/strong&gt; – All dinosaurs died out with one exception – birds. They are the only group of dinosaurs that have survived the extinction event.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Enthrall&lt;/strong&gt; – Today humans everywhere continuously enthrall them. Millions of people everywhere year after year visit the natural history museums to gape and marvel at the spectacular dinosaur exhibits without end.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Page 5: The lie of “there were not hundreds of types of dinosaurs” right in front of your face – all made up to explain how did Noah put every 900+ species of creature, living and extinct, into the ark without bursting it apart. Note the two sauropod dinosaurs on the page that&#039;s now known to be invalid taxon. Ultrasaurus is now known to be the same as Supersaurus, a diplodocid, and Seismosaurus is now known to be a large species of Diplodocus called &lt;em&gt;Diplodocus Hallorum&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Page 6-7: All about “everybody&#039;s favorite dinosaur.” No feathers on the babies and bunny hands are prevalent here. Tyrannosaurus Rex is the most famous of all dinosaurs that lived 65 million years ago at the very end of the dinosaur age. Ham claims this is his favorite dinosaur because he can use the elongated sharp teeth of T-rex to teach dietary stupid (The fallacy that claims just because an animal has sharp teeth doesn&#039;t mean it&#039;s a meat eater – No different than claiming that just because an animal has blunt teeth doesn&#039;t mean it&#039;s a plant eater) which he does on pages 30-31 by worthlessly comparing the teeth of theropods with the teeth of modern animals that are either herbivorous or omnivorous. Never mind the teeth of dinosaurs being unlike any other animal teeth known. Page 7 claims concerning what was T-rex&#039;s actual diet and how the tyrant dinosaur have hunted in comparison with what the so-called “secular scientists” think, “However, creation scientists [blatant liars actually] are able to explain the [sic] evidence in a different way using the [fictional] biblical account, as we will soon learn [stupidly].”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Page 8-9: Ham thinks he can answer a lot of questions children ask about dinosaurs because to him dinosaurs are not a mystery at all. The only mystery he solves about dinosaurs is nothing. Telling them to look into the Bible, which tells nothing about dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurus, will not solve any mysteries concerning dinosaurs nor bring any understanding of them at all. Ham also thinks he knows “someone” who was there when dinosaurs appeared and eventually disappeared from the earth and wrote a book for us that gives out a detailed account about the history of the universe, when the earth began, and when did all living creatures and the first humans appeared. His “knowledge” of this “someone” the supposedly Creator of all things who had a book written for us – the Bible – is all nothing but make-believe. All made believe out of ignorance of the fact that the Bible tells nothing of what Ham claims about dinosaurs and the age of the Earth. Claiming that God was there when man and dinosaurs lived at the same time thousands of years ago, while both fossil and biblical evidence clearly shows nothing of this, is an act of total lying and blaspheming God and His Word; everything Ham claims is all blasphemous and imaginary.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Sauroposeidon in the illustration is shown to have toes on its front feet. Never mind that fossil evidence reveals to us that sauropods have mitten-like front feet with no toes except for the single first digit claw. Sauroposeidon is only known for 4 neck vertebrae. Yet, paleontologists were able to estimate the size of this Early Cretaceous brachiosaur to be about 60 feet tall, making it one of the tallest dinosaurs ever. Compsognathus was a turkey size dinosaur that lived during the Jurassic Period in what is now Europe. That was before Sauroposeidon appeared in the Early Cretaceous period in what is now North America. Thus, the two dinosaurs never met in real life. Now look how Ham wrongly claims that Sauroposeidon was considered the largest dinosaur ever to live before the discovery of Argentinosaurus while in fact it&#039;s the other way around. The discovery of Argentinosaurus occurred in South America in 1993, one year &lt;em&gt;before&lt;/em&gt; the discovery of Sauroposeidon which is in 1994. Back then, people thought the neck vertebrae of Sauroposeidon were large petrified tree trunks before realizing years later that these so-called tree trunks were in fact the biggest sauropod neck vertebrae ever to be found.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The bottom of page 9 is all about lies, denial, and misrepresentations of how paleontologists try to figure out how dinosaurs like Microraptors and Archaeopteryx evolved into birds. The paragraph claims,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some scientists have found smaller creatures, like Microraptors, which they try to use to prove dinosaurs were the evolutionary ancestors of birds – [sic] real science and the Bible disproves this idea. Archaeopteryx (“ancient wing”) is another example of a creature once thought to prove this link, but that idea has now been proven false [in Ham&#039;s eyes].&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The so-called real science and the Bible disproving this is never explained how. The definition of real science according to Ham is outright denial, ignorance of the physical evidence supporting the concept of bird evolving from the likes of Microraptor and Archaeopteryx (including feathers, bird-like saurischian hips, and a primitive wishbone), along with fault-finding, quote-mining, and misrepresentation of facts. This is not real science by any means. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/blog:what-is-science&quot;&gt;Real science&lt;/a&gt; is all about natural observations, making discoveries in the field as well as in the lab, seeking to satisfying one&#039;s curiosity of how things work and how life got here through physical evidence, and so much more. The Bible talks nothing about evolution. It said nothing of how God created everything other than God spoke and it was done. How was it done is never mentioned in scripture.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Page 10-11 describes the attributes of God and how He is claimed to know everything and has always been there from the beginning and alleged to be the only witness to the entire history of the world and had men write down exactly what He wanted us to know. If so then explain how come no physical evidence is found that confirms what is said in the Bible to be true according to what Ham claims? Even an eyewitness can be unreliable and untrustworthy if he or she have not presented any single evidence confirming what they claimed to have saw is real whether these accounts are in words or in paper form.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Like all forms of creationist literature, &lt;em&gt;Dinosaurs for Kids&lt;/em&gt; deceptively pose those who foolishly preach about a false concept that the earth is thousands of years ago because the Bible is alleged to said so as “scientists” while hiding the fact that these “scientists” are nothing more than a bunch of dumb lying idiots who make things up and say it&#039;s all true because the Bible is alleged to say so while the Bible in fact tells nothing of what creationists claim about it.&lt;/p&gt;

Ultrasaurus is now known to be the same as Supersaurus, a diplodocid, and Seismosaurus is now known to be a large species of Diplodocus called <em>Diplodocus Hallorum</em>.</p> <p>Page 6-7: All about “everybody's favorite dinosaur.” No feathers on the babies and bunny hands are prevalent here. Tyrannosaurus Rex is the most famous of all dinosaurs that lived 65 million years ago at the very end of the dinosaur age. Ham claims this is his favorite dinosaur because he can use the elongated sharp teeth of T-rex to teach dietary stupid (The fallacy that claims just because an animal has sharp teeth doesn't mean it's a meat eater – No different than claiming that just because an animal has blunt teeth doesn't mean it's a plant eater) which he does on pages 30-31 by worthlessly comparing the teeth of theropods with the teeth of modern animals that are either herbivorous or omnivorous. Never mind the teeth of dinosaurs being unlike any other animal teeth known. Page 7 claims concerning what was T-rex's actual diet and how the tyrant dinosaur have hunted in comparison with what the so-called “secular scientists” think, “However, creation scientists [blatant liars actually] are able to explain the [sic] evidence in a different way using the [fictional] biblical account, as we will soon learn [stupidly].”</p> <p>Page 8-9: Ham thinks he can answer a lot of questions children ask about dinosaurs because to him dinosaurs are not a mystery at all. The only mystery he solves about dinosaurs is nothing. Telling them to look into the Bible, which tells nothing about dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurus, will not solve any mysteries concerning dinosaurs nor bring any understanding of them at all. Ham also thinks he knows “someone” who was there when dinosaurs appeared and eventually disappeared from the earth and wrote a book for us that gives out a detailed account about the history of the universe, when the earth began, and when did all living creatures and the first humans appeared. His “knowledge” of this “someone” the supposedly Creator of all things who had a book written for us – the Bible – is all nothing but make-believe. All made believe out of ignorance of the fact that the Bible tells nothing of what Ham claims about dinosaurs and the age of the Earth. Claiming that God was there when man and dinosaurs lived at the same time thousands of years ago, while both fossil and biblical evidence clearly shows nothing of this, is an act of total lying and blaspheming God and His Word; everything Ham claims is all blasphemous and imaginary.</p> <p>The Sauroposeidon in the illustration is shown to have toes on its front feet. Never mind that fossil evidence reveals to us that sauropods have mitten-like front feet with no toes except for the single first digit claw. Sauroposeidon is only known for 4 neck vertebrae. Yet, paleontologists were able to estimate the size of this Early Cretaceous brachiosaur to be about 60 feet tall, making it one of the tallest dinosaurs ever. Compsognathus was a turkey size dinosaur that lived during the Jurassic Period in what is now Europe. That was before Sauroposeidon appeared in the Early Cretaceous period in what is now North America. Thus, the two dinosaurs never met in real life. Now look how Ham wrongly claims that Sauroposeidon was considered the largest dinosaur ever to live before the discovery of Argentinosaurus while in fact it's the other way around. The discovery of Argentinosaurus occurred in South America in 1993, one year <em>before</em> the discovery of Sauroposeidon which is in 1994. Back then, people thought the neck vertebrae of Sauroposeidon were large petrified tree trunks before realizing years later that these so-called tree trunks were in fact the biggest sauropod neck vertebrae ever to be found.</p> <p>The bottom of page 9 is all about lies, denial, and misrepresentations of how paleontologists try to figure out how dinosaurs like Microraptors and Archaeopteryx evolved into birds. The paragraph claims,</p> <blockquote> <p>Some scientists have found smaller creatures, like Microraptors, which they try to use to prove dinosaurs were the evolutionary ancestors of birds – [sic] real science and the Bible disproves this idea. Archaeopteryx (“ancient wing”) is another example of a creature once thought to prove this link, but that idea has now been proven false [in Ham's eyes].</p> </blockquote> <p>The so-called real science and the Bible disproving this is never explained how. The definition of real science according to Ham is outright denial, ignorance of the physical evidence supporting the concept of bird evolving from the likes of Microraptor and Archaeopteryx (including feathers, bird-like saurischian hips, and a primitive wishbone), along with fault-finding, quote-mining, and misrepresentation of facts. This is not real science by any means. <a href="http://www.stupiddinosaurlies.org/blog:what-is-science">Real science</a> is all about natural observations, making discoveries in the field as well as in the lab, seeking to satisfying one's curiosity of how things work and how life got here through physical evidence, and so much more. The Bible talks nothing about evolution. It said nothing of how God created everything other than God spoke and it was done. How was it done is never mentioned in scripture.</p> <p>Page 10-11 describes the attributes of God and how He is claimed to know everything and has always been there from the beginning and alleged to be the only witness to the entire history of the world and had men write down exactly what He wanted us to know. If so then explain how come no physical evidence is found that confirms what is said in the Bible to be true according to what Ham claims? Even an eyewitness can be unreliable and untrustworthy if he or she have not presented any single evidence confirming what they claimed to have saw is real whether these accounts are in words or in paper form.</p> <p>Like all forms of creationist literature, <em>Dinosaurs for Kids</em> deceptively pose those who foolishly preach about a false concept that the earth is thousands of years ago because the Bible is alleged to said so as “scientists” while hiding the fact that these “scientists” are nothing more than a bunch of dumb lying idiots who make things up and say it's all true because the Bible is alleged to say so while the Bible in fact tells nothing of what creationists claim about it.</p> <p>Continued next post&#8230;</p> <p>by <span class="printuser avatarhover"><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" ><img class="small" src="http://www.wikidot.com/avatar.php?userid=412908&amp;size=small&amp;timestamp=1329057197" alt="Crazyharp81602" style="background-image:url(http://www.wikidot.com/userkarma.php?u=412908)" /></a><a href="http://www.wikidot.com/user:info/crazyharp81602" >Crazyharp81602</a></span></p>
