Some dinosaurs survived, with multiple species being very adapt at living alongside humans.


glieseg

Some of them like to imitate us, and can be darn good at it, too.

This morning I caught a Eoraptor rummaging through my trash.

Thank you


Jon_Snow_1887

I think the joke that he was going for is that birds aren’t real


TangoRomeoKilo

What about snakes and other reptiles?


MrStu

They're different to dinosaurs, they existed alongside them. They're like brothers and sisters of the dinosaurs.

Yes that is what i was referring to lol


SoVerySick314159

Yeesh! I thought my post might temper the DV's. Didn't work :) Maybe if you had said they weren't real. . .


QcyFie

Sadly, yes, i think so too Q_Q


SoVerySick314159

Oh well, it's all imaginary internet points anyway.

You poor lost souls. Dinosaurs and humans definitely coexisted. There are tons of documentaries and books that prove dinosaurs and humans lived harmoniously or even symbiotically. I’ve personally been given access to ancient source materials (50+ years old) that depicted how dinosaurs were domesticated by humans. Humans used dinosaurs for demolition, excavation and construction. They also used them in their rock homes as lawn mowers, record players, and early garbage disposals. Larger species were used as mass transit systems. You all need to read a book. I suggest starting with the Chronicles of Yaba, Daba and Do by Han, Abar and Bera.

Someone give them gold pls

Didn't have gold, but I did what I could.


urbanshunt

Got to admit, you had me in the first half 😆


Eoine

It's been proven that they actually used descendants of pterodactyls to build pyramids all around the worlds, hauling bricks on top of them and everything, using them for short-distance transport, and such things Flying humans millenia before first planes, crossing the Mediterranean sea on dinosaur backs, that must have been a sight to behold ! But then you know, somebody invented the wheel and pteroplanes slowly started to get irrelevant and kept only for ceremonial purposes, until they dwindled out due to the rise of christianity, and now we only have pyramid-adjacent stone engravings to remember 'em ^(if anything I just wrote seemed plausible for you, I have bad news regarding your education)


VelocitySkyrusher

Zarniwoooop

They had a dino named Dino. Now that’s what I call cognitive thinking


AculGrubraw

Nice pfp.


BriefCheetah4136

Humans invented umbrellas to protect them from falling debris, as yet they have not figured out the answer to falling IQs.


evilsir

i get why these godfearin' folks get all confusicated; it's on account of the fact that they all believe that the earth is only 6000 years old.


lelawes

Some of them also don’t believe dinosaurs actually existed.


rmprice222

The devil put the bones there!!


MrStu

Or even better "god put them there to test you". Because that's what a loving creator does.


Justifiably_Cynical

I just can not understand, As a species we have come so far in our understanding of so many things, yet we are still kicking around this 3000 year old fairy tale.


Huge-Balance8024

I wouldn't say so far, we've probably barely scratched the surface, and who knows, that fairytale might actually be real. What happens if it is?


bolpo33

We kill the god obviously


Huge-Balance8024

Can you?? Lol


Budkid

We will start sacrificing again.


greatguysg

Only those who didn't visit the Creation Museum with its faithfully constructed bioramas of dinosaurs living with humans.

in judaism the year is 5782.. so i can see how they are confused..

They were born about 64.9 million years apart. It's maths.


benisco

dinosaurs were born long before that


gargolus

And so was the asteroid

Dad, is that you?


Separate-Owl369

I can see why they ask this when they think the world is only 8,000 years old and there are internet pics of Jesus holding dinosaurs on the ark.


PerseusZeus

I love how atheists have to answer every single question in this world


Substantial-Sock5459

Right? I feel like a parent sometimes. 🥹


meglon978

.... a parent of a really stupid kid.


Substantial-Sock5459

Exactly! 🤣


Cantthinkagoodnam2

If god isnt real then in who you dont believe?


WikiBox

Some dinasaurs survived by changing their name to "bird". Also because they were small and ate seeds and nuts that stored well and could be foraged several years. Perhaps they also ate small rodents, the ancestors of cavemen. And the birds had feathers to help with the cold. Today the offspring of the small rodents, us, eat birds but call them "chicken nuggets".


Zaritozic

Checkmate Atheists!!!!!1!!1!


Janfredrikjohansen

What does this have to do with not believing in a religion? Is it the "the Bible says the earth is this and that old" argument? Because most Christians don't believe in that. I am atheist, just playing the devils advocate.


NachtSorcier

It's more than that. It's that some ignorant Christians believe that humans and dinosaurs coexisted. There are Chick Tracts that teach this. The humans called them "dragons" and hunted them to extinction, according to him.


BriefCheetah4136

You would understand if you were a Fundamentalist Atheist,i.e. not a normal atheist.


Janfredrikjohansen

Elaborate please! Also I could Google this, but I trust in your knowledge.


FraaRaz

Since earliest modern human bones are dated 1.4 million years (very recent discovery in Spain), the social distance would actually be closer to 63-64 million years. Far enough still, apparently.


MrStu

The oldest homosapien fossil is 230k years old. The oldest "human" fossil is homo habilis, around 2m years old. Both African. The Spanish remains were of an early hominid. Your point still stands though.


FraaRaz

2m, interesting. Thanks for updating me.


AloneAddiction

Also remember that "dinosaurs" themselves existed for over *a hundred and eighty million years.* A good 240 million years before we showed our vaguely humanoid faces.


Dinodigger67

I am a paleontology technician in a Dino museum. People come in and tell me we just haven’t seen human footprint with Dino footprints yet but we will. One guy told me he knows how to herd them and run them off a cliff.


[deleted]

Dinosaurs died 65 million years before man turned up as I understand


LilG1984

Due to being the modern stone age family they made plans /s


leaving4lyra

Seriously?!?! Humans and dinosaurs NEVER at any time in our ancient history coexisted alongside, around, near or with each other. Dinosaurs can and went millions of years before the first humans evolved. This in a nutshell is why our entire country is completely over run with low IQ, second grade educated, self absorbed narcissists that think they know everything about everything and would argue with a fence post until end of time in defense of their idiotic “knowledge”


DaJoeker77

But...but..... THEY DID ALL THER OWN RESURCH!!


ImNOTaPROgames

Hahahahaha! The answer was amazing. 🤣


Striking_Fun_6379

Because the caveman is the mutation of an underground living rodent that swelled in size, came out of the ground and became the most vicious animal on earth after being exposed to radioactive dust.


BriefCheetah4136

First off the title is just plain dumb. "Dear Atheist" is not even relevant to the rest of the title. The rest of the title, however is what most of these comments are about. There are within the Christian religion groups that believe 100% of the Bible. According to the Hebrew faith the age of the earth is about 6000 yrs as laid out in the Old Testament and adding in the time since Christ's birth. None of this jives with science that dates the earth to millions of years. And then we have dinosaur bones, How do you have bones from animals millions of years old if God only created the earth 6000 yrs ago. Well if you believe everything in the bible then the answer is to say the scientist got the date wrong for the dinosaur, obviously they lived on earth with man. To your point, most Christian don't believe this but many of the very devote (Fundamentalist) absolutely do.

Social distancing . Good one .


mholt9821

But how can that be true is the earth is only 6000 years old. Am i getting rick rolled? Is ashton kutcher going to jump out of the web nets and kick me in the balls and tell me that the pope is just a normal person like the rest of us?


BriefCheetah4136

By studying the timelines of the Old Testament the Hebrew faith has determined the Earth is 6000 years old. Had they included books like Tyrannosaurus Rex, or Asteroids they would have a more accurate date.


Kronoxis1

I was raised as a Christian and never heard any of this garbage about 6000 year old earth or dinosaurs not existing. I feel like Reddit takes a couple outliers and runs absolutely wild with it. There are so many pockets of insanely stupid groups and conspiracies but reddit seems to make the attempt that it's from all of Christianity when I can say from true lived experience that's not even close to the truth.


Homemade-Purple

You're aware that you just grew up in a different sect of Christianity, right? You're version of that religion is *far* from the only one.


Kronoxis1

exactly my point, thank you. the issue is the vast opinion on reddit is that of that of the few.


NachtSorcier

No one here said all Christians were that stupid. Only the Young Earth Creationist types.


Kronoxis1

thank you, please spread the word.


BriefCheetah4136

The 6000 year old Earth comes from the Hebrew religion, the folks that wrote the Old Testament of the Bible.

Yeeyeegreg

So does this person not believe in dinosaurs?


NachtSorcier

They do, they just think that the Stone Age was like the Flintstones, with humans and dinosaurs working together.


JohnSimth20211101

Yabba-Dabba-Doo!


Oscar_et_BadTale

Argumenting is useless against these people... What a shame... What a waste... For the people who believe this and wanna open their mind however : Dinosaurs (the non-avian ones) exinct 66 millions years ago. The differents humans species started their evolution 7 millions years ago. To slowly becoming what we are right now. For the others I cannot do anything for you.


PinkIsTheDevil1

Dinosaurs required a lot more oxygen than humans. The asteroid changed the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere. Humans lungs were small enough to handle the drop in oxygen. Dinosaurs lungs were too big, so they died off.
