How old is that book with that illustration? Was it printed before lets say 1700 the year of our lord? Then big fucking deal. At that point religions stopped denying the existence of dinosaurs. At least some of them did. Today some theists still deny facts like dinosaurs and evolution.
It's rumored that Jesus himself drew that image. Though the colors may have been added in subsequent centuries. It is somewhat of a controversy.
Not only do we have no writings from Jesus, we have no writings about Jesus from anyone from his day.
Don't say Josephus. He wasn't born until 37AD. That means he didn't write about Jesus until at least 57AD. In other words he just wrote what a small but growing cult told him. Just like everyone else who was told about Jesus and who decided to join the new cult/church.
Funny the Jews who saw Jesus crucified didn't write about him. He was supposedly famous near and far. Thousands worshipped him but not one writing.
And today you show me that Jesus supposedly wrote of Dinosaurs? Talk about being gullible. Are you kidding?
Lol of course. That's like THE defining image of the Dinotopia book series.
What is your point?
Dinotopia is a fictional utopia created by author and illustrator James Gurney.
1958. So that picture was drawn in the 1900's. I thought you said Jesus drew that picture. I thought all we had from Jesus was a wash cloth he wiped his bleeding face with? Or the Dead Sea scrolls which were written 408 BCE to 318 CE
Pretty vague wouldn't you say? I say they were written after Jesus by a new upstart cult.
Any logical thinker would need proof to believe in Christianity and Christianity can't provide any. You have to have blind faith just like with all the other made up religions.
When you realize why you reject all other religions, you'll understand why I reject yours.

Please don't tell me a god watches you and built a heaven for you and a hell for people who disagree with you and then tell me something went over my head. If it did its because your argument or point is just too stupid for me to accept. And if you are so sharp, why don't you go into detail explaining what your fucking point is/was.
Because it all boils down to "you gotta have faith", and I refuse to have faith in a lie.
Evolution and the Big Bang are scientific theories. Basically, they are the best answers we have right now. I'll have faith in those things until better theories prove them wrong.
As far as religion. I think I've seen enough facts to conclude they are all just made up. And I'll remain open to someone changing my mind. Just present the evidence and I'll let you know if it is sound and logical or not proof at all.
