DINOSAURS? YES. While we cant absolutely rule out the idea that dinosaur fossils were created by God and arent evidence of extinct creatures, we consider it most probable that various dinosaurs did indeed exist. And were well aware that some Christians are reluctant to accept this evidence because they think it conflicts with biblical revelation. We are less certain what these extinct creatures really looked like. Dinosaur fossils usually consist of fragments. Even if scientists find nearly complete skeletons, they still must guess what the animal originally looked like. Questions abound: Were they sluggish or swift, cold-blooded or warm-blooded? Were they fat or slim, hairy or feathered? Reconstructing dinosaurs from fossil remnants involves much guesswork and yields frequent disagreement among scholars. Answers are elusive, and speculation is widespread despite occasional knowledge of significant skeletal structures.
