T-rex King of the Dragons Additional Information

I just saw your T-Rex: King of the Dragons with David Rives and Buddy Davis on TBN. Tuesday, August 22, 2017.

I am an expert on paleontology and the Bible, and there were several errors in the information in this program. You both need to read my book Mysteries of History Revealed Part 1 where I document this information.

Creationists have been borrowing speculation from evolutionists without being critical and examining the latest research by secular scientists.

Dinosaurs are NOT big lizards any more than birds are related to dinosaurs. They are an extinct form of reptile that stands upright bipedal and quadropedal, like birds, mammals, and humans. This makes them unique. Saying they are big lizards is enforcing a misconception and popular myth. A little error leads to big errors. 

As for the oldest dinosaur being only 25 years old, this is falsified by the Bible. People lived almost a thousand years, thus dinosaurs must have lived hundreds of years, most likely longer than humans. Giant Galapagoes tortises live up to 200 years today.

As for the ‘tree’ rings in the bones, no doubt they are from a juvenile dinosaur. Many dinosaurs are juvanile showing they did not die from old age. And the weather was very different so like varves in lakes and some tree rings that were not formed by  yearly cycles. This is an evolutionary assumption by evolutionists who do not believe in the longevity of life in the past.

And your comments about dinosaurs suffering from cancer, arthritis, and other diseases, a paleopathologist was going to give a lecture on dinosaur diseases and wanted to show examples. He had heard that cancer was common among dinosaurs. But he could find NO examples.

Creationists jump to conclusions that this is evidence of the fall. Wrong. This is what happened when amature creation scientists thought plantigrade dinosaur tracks, walking on their metatarsus, were human tracks in the Paluxy River in Texas. But three toes are found in front of these if you look close. Glen Cuban was partially right. However I believe the Delk Track is genuine and a few others.

I was looking for evidence that supported the Bible’s claim that people lived hundreds of years, and dinosaurs lived with man, therefore they must have been very healthy and lived a long time.

This paleopathologist finally did find two examples of arthritis among the duckbilled Hardrosaurs in Germany in their ankle.

But as for the cancer, it was found to be ignorance on the part of secular paleontologists in osteology of dinosaurs. Because all dinosaurs walked upright, there bones were naturally different.

He concluded that dinosaurs were healthier than people are today! And they did not have doctors.

I have heard creation ‘scientists’ repeat this pathology myth elsewhere. This came from ignorance and the assumption that today is the key to the past part of the uniformitarian myth.

He did say that many dinosaurs show signs of battle scars, and some rare scavenging.

And by the way this idea that theropod teeth were not designed to eat flesh, this is falsified by the fact that spider webs are designed to trap and kill insects. And Venus Flytraps were designed to act as death traps. And triceratops was designed to fight with horns, and a protective shield.

Now it is true that there was no carnivorous or scavenging activity at first before the Fall. But God knew what would happen and had Plan B ready. Yes serrations were for cutting plants but also for cutting meat. They are found on the teeth of theropod dinosaurs, phytosaurs, sharks, piranha, and saber-toothed cats.
