Texans: Dinosaurs, Humans Walked the Earth at Same Time
One of my favorite topics of discussion when talking to people about creationism. Order.
The first question that most people dance around is the length of the “7 days”, but those who have put some thought into it, won’t go there because it’s a debate about interpretation.
But I do always have chats about the order in which things happened. Genesis is all over the place when it comes to ordering. So it’s no shock that many people could think that dinosaurs (commonly referenced) and humans logically existed at the same time.
It’s funny to think about a homosapien running from a T-Rex. Very… Jurassic Park…
Along the same lines, I also get into debates about C-14 dating and the ever classic, that god put dinosaur fossils in the Earth and that they never existed.
Our brains are amazing. We’re self-aware and are in a constant search for how we got here and why we’re here. It’s no surprise that it becomes a topic of debate.
