Frazzled + pointy stick + dinosaurs walking on his lawn = death of all dinosaurs. Duh!
Frazzled has been around longer than you think...

Noah was instructed to take a couple of every type of animal.

If I had to guess it was because the Dinosaurs rebelled against God.....who knows why they died off? Creationists say that Satan put dinosaur bones on the earth to fool us. Noah also lived to be 800 years old or something. However, if I recall, Noah was instructed to grab a pair of every clean animal, half a dozen different pairs of birds, and one pair of unclean animals. So the dinosaurs denounced god by not kneeling before Noah to enter the arch, which is how they were determined if they were clean or dirty animals.

Noah was not simply instructed to pick up a brace of every animal that ever existed if you take the story in a literal sense.

What about crocodiles?

It all makes perfect sense now.....

Are you quizzing me hahahaha?

I am not a biblical scholar but have read the bible. If memory serves, there was no distinction between a clean and dirty animal to mankind, other than Angels notified Noah and only animals that kneel before him, and kneel before God were to be allowed on the Ark. If you ever watched any of those old Noah's Ark renditions that were animated (I think Disney did a major one) you will notice that the animals, in pairs, come to Noah, present themselves then bow and finally enter the ark.

My guess is, that the crocs did kneel and the dinosaurs were like, forget this crap I am gonna go eat meat or something.

I thought clean animals were the ones without cloven hooves.

Depends on which version of mythos you read. Every major sect has had their own version. I just remember the bowing part.

I'm not surprised by this news. Surely these guys enjoyed an occasional coconut. Who doesn't?

Personally, I prefer to Gang a Bong.

One tree will produce c. 50 coconuts at any one time. This means that a T-Rex would need to strip 60 trees a day in order to feed itself.

It is a good thing that coconuts don't have any kind of laxative effect when consumed in bulk...

Oh, wait...

Sigh. You know, if they had come up with a COOL reason T. Rexes had these teeth, I can just bet there'd be less flak for it.But no, let's make a lame reason to do with coconuts, that'll endear kids to our version as opposed to the meat-eating tyrant-king-of-the-lizards BADASS that evolution and paleontology proposes.

Crocodiles can swim, they didn't need noah.

Kilkrazy wrote:Why didn't the dinosaurs make it to the Ark?

Too busy eating coconuts.

So Jurassic Park is a lie?? Aww WTF!

Maybe the goat was eating coconuts and the T-Rex ate the goat to get to them?

You know, that could totally work in a hollywood sort of way

Well... this is interesting. What about the dinosaurs that could fly?

On a side note, this reminds of the RvB joke with the NEW new testament. You know, the one with the car chase?

You know what else is the same shape as a banana right? But according to the bible, that's wrong!

You know, one thing Creationists never answer when I ask them is: Who created God? Surely 'he' didn't just 'will' 'himself' into existance, because that's just silly...

I was thinking more along the lines of a TWO person activity that would involve "eating a banana".

Since when is BANANA SPLITS a sin? Jesus what is wrong with you people!

I think it has something to do with the fact that it looks like two bananas sitting on the chest of that 3-boobed future chick from Total Recall

Now thats a porno Im google-ing right now

Well, according to my book there are a few "creationist" theories. One is that the flood destroyed all the plants so they starved to death (Yes, there's forward planning by God) Then they might have had all their eggs eaten by birds and mammals (not that old shaggy dog story) or my favourite, that they were hunted into extinction by man, accompanied with a picture of a 15th century knight. The story of George and the Dragon is supposedly proof of this.

Look at a T-Rex's tiny arms. Some creatures just weren't up to the job of praying and died out.

What about other swimming dinosaurs -- where have they gone?

I'm just glad that there was a very expansive human gene-pool onboard the Ark to stop us suffering the negative effects of thousands of years of inbreeding- OHWAIT!
