Some of the people I've grown up with are Baptists and truly believe that not only were dinosaurs on the ark but that they also still exist. I used to laugh, but now I realize that they are truly serious and I've had to go through the process of using both Darwin's theories as well as those of other prominent evolutionary thinkers. Huxley is actually one of the best to use, he was Darwin's attack dog more or less and was an agnostic. In fact I think he invented the term agnostic, anyway some of the points he used in his debates really resonate and sink in with die hard creationists, so I tend to reference back to him whenever I'm talking with someone who outright denies evolution as completely false.
I don't think you got my point.. Dinosaurs actually exist today in the form of birds. We have fossil links of therapod dinosaurs actually evolving a bird like hip orientation and some evidence to also show that foot digits on the bird are homologus (equivalent through evolution) to those of dinosaurs (hence a link).
so dinosaurs actually are living with humans if you think about it. But i also understand your point into thinking that its ridiculous taht adam and eve rode in on their brontosaurs.

Yeah, but most of our genes evolved long before that, especially the ones involved in all the chemical processes outlined on that page. We share 90% of our genes with mice, and about 96% with chimps.
So what you are saying is that... i could rip my neighbors friends face off?

That extra 4% is what gives us a moral compass...or, failing that, police forces, judicial systems, and penitentiaries.

I take back the statement that it is rubbish.
Don't want to offend people by going round shouting off my opinion as being more important.
This is called lack of education. Learn some biology, chemistry and physics, and it all starts to make sense. No invisible man is needed to help simplify things.
