Where did the surviving dinos go?
Another easy one. How did many creatures go extinct? We killed them off. A few must have survived the flood because something like them is referenced twice in Job (Behemoth, Leviathan) and the word “dragon” can be found in historical non-fiction. The term “dinosaur” was only coined in the mid 1800’s. If you read the King James Version of the Bible you may notice that Isaiah was a contemporary of a dragon (Isaiah 27:1) and a “fiery flying serpent” (Isaiah 30:6) as was Jerimiah (Jerimiah 51:34) and a Psalmist (Psalm 91:13). Why am I referencing KJV (published in 611 AD) instead of something a little more modern? Perhaps the more modern translators thought using such language would be too hard to accept for their modern readers. (Compare to how NIV translates a word into “living creatures” in Revelation but into “animals” most everywhere else in the New Testament. See Heaven by Randy Alchorn, page 379.
