Did dinosaurs become extinct 65 million years ago? Not exactly.
The word “dinosaur” (Greek for “terrible lizard”) was not even invented until Sir Richard Owen coined the term in 1841 when referring to the fossils that were beginning to be found all over the world. Until then there was already a word that was being used to describe large ferocious reptilian and serpentine creatures: dragons.
The following is a slide show that combines information readily available on the internet about human encounters with dinosaurs that are universally considered as mythological tales by modern scientists. Nobody can convince them in spite of all the evidence that dinosaurs have lived among us until relatively recent, even post-medieval times. Anyone paying attention with an open heart and mind will see that dinosaurs have lived among us from the creation. We just had a different name for them back then.
The discovery of soft tissue in dinosaur bones has thrown the paleontological world into a panic of trying to figure out how to sell soft tissue, hemoglobin, other proteins and dinosaur DNA as being from 65 million years ago. However, these are all evidence that even fossilized dinosaurs existed much more recently than even a million years ago.
The last item in the series is an attempt by two scientists to present evidence of carbon 14 dating of 10 dinosaur samples. These samples show dates of between 44,000 and 57,000 years ago. Their findings were such an anathema to the conference organizers that their findings were struck from the website. I have included the before and after conference schedule to show the deletion of 005. The second to last slide is a visual of their conclusion, showing that the carbon 14 dating of dinosaurs is consistent with that of the large mammals that are now extinct.
One final note:
Carbon 14 is a radioactive form of carbon formed primarily in the upper atmosphere by bombarding nitrogen with high-energy cosmic rays from the sun. Once formed, it mixes into the atmosphere and eventually finds its way into the food chain through photosynthesis by plants, which are then eaten by animals. The assumption made for dating is that animals and plants theoretically have the same concentration of C14 as the atmosphere, since the earth has been bombarded by the sun for billions of years and an equilibrium has occurred.
Since animals no longer ingest C14 after death, you measure the C14 in the tissues to see how much less the amount is from the “initial” amount presumed to have been in the atmosphere. C14 has a half-life of 5,730 years plus-or-minus 40 years, so every 5,730 years there should be half as much C14 as at the start.
What happens to the date if the earth and sun have only been here for approximately 6000 years? Well, that would mean that the initial condition of the upper atmosphere would have had no C14, and that means that any animal that died within the first few years would have almost no C14 at all, and would therefore seem to be extremely old, to a measurable limit of approximately 90000 years. Now imagine if the flood happened about 5500 years ago and most fossils were formed them. C14 would give a date that is off by a magnitude of about 10, give or take, as there would be much less of it in the atmosphere than there is now. So, how about the 44,000 to 57,000 year dating of dinosaurs, ancient mammals and even coal (yes, coal comes in within that range, too, no matter where it is dug up from).
Hmmmm…
