T-Rex Would Have Eaten Adam And Eve.

If Adam and Eve were truly the first humans, and that is debatable and lived with the dinosaurs they would have been eaten by T-Rex or some velociraptor or some other hungry vicious creature. It is doubtful that homo sapiens could have competed with these behemoths. Imagine yourself being on a picnic in the Jurassic era. I wonder about the bugs and how big they were. We do know that dragon flies used to be big with 2 foot wing spans.

Adam & Eve would have ridden them or used them to clean their kitchen.

Like in the Flintstones.

Adam would have gotten "The Sword of a Thousand Truths" which would pwn any dino with a nick.


Sorry couldn't help it.

It is a well known scientific fact that carnivorous dinosaurs ate only other dinosaurs. Because there has yet to be a carnivorous dinosaur fossil found with even a pubic hair stuck between its teeth we have all the proof we need that they did not like eating anything (or anyone) with hair on it. Good thing Adam and Eve were not into kinky shaving practices huh?

No one considered the consequences of avoiding dinosaur attacks by not getting Brazilian wax jobs.

The pubic hair thread was the best thread ever! I have it bookmarked for those days when I need a smile.

Eve fed apples to T-Rex and domesticated the dinosaurs. The dinosaurs pulled wagons and stuff.

the pre-lapsean (ie. before Eve and Adam ate the Fruit of Knowledge) Garden of Eden, all the animals, including what are now carnivores, like T-Rex or velopciraptors, were vegetarians. They only became meat-eaters when sin entered the world.

Is that if it is a legitimate eating, then Adam and Eve's bodies have mechanisms to shut that sort of thing down.

You just get tired of the biblical literalist claims about evolution and the age of the planet. The fact that our children are being taught this craziness is really sad. In Denver fundies were visiting our museum telling their kids that it was all a fraud. That men lived with dinosaurs. How disgusting.

How can we ever lead the world again in science with such nonsense being taught to the younger generation? It is dangerous when there is supposed debate in the public forum that evolution or other proven science is a fraud. Where will it stop when credible scientists are attacked for valid research because your holy book supposedly says otherwise.

I cannot believe all the convoluted garbage being put out by believers. What they claim did not happen and would not be possible. In my youth I saw promising forward momentum in this country. Now I am wondering because we are moving backwards.

How depressing to see us now hitching a ride to the space station with the Russians who we beat to the moon. It is embarrassing as an American to see this happening.

I was at the museum that the night that Curiosity landed. It was an amazing evening spending time with some of the key people who were part of that venture. What was even more amazing to spend time and even talk to personally and joke with the rocket scientist who was a young lady responsible for the Atlas rocket. And to also speak to the engineer who worked on the main winch system that lowered Curiosity and the winches operating the arms on Curiosity.

Nasa has been fragmented and layed off thousands of technicians we cannot replace easily. So our space programs is pretty much stopped. Severe budget cuts loom and it looks like there will be no new ventures while the rest of the world moves on. Now the Chinese are very active with their space program. And ironically we are paying for it because American business thinks the Chinese are more important than Americans in their book. And they are the patriots. How ironic.

We are seeing our country being dragged back to a dark age I resist. We are becoming a mockery of the planet now when we led the world. We will lose all that if we continue down this path to ignorance.

My post is kind of a mockery to the biblical literalists as well. I will have no part in their medieval thinking.
