Meaningless. No type of human and no type of dinosaur (except birds, of course) have ever existed together.

Darnnit, We would've gotten away with it if it was for you mediling kid.

What's wrong with your spelling checker? Mine gives "meddling" as the first suggestion for that.

Confusion with "medalling" I could understand, but "mediling" sounds like some kind of therapeutic fish.

I'll bet you it's the last time God uses ghost writers.

I dunno. The co-authoring with Muhammed contains a few contradictions too.

Perhaps it's time He scripted, directed and starred in a feature-length movie. Not that many people read a whole book these days.

Maybe a late night talk show. I bet He would get all the good guests. One would expect God to have the funniest monologues too. *nod*

I'm not happy with people finding God in the comfort of their own living-room. I want them all in one big room together. Like a church, but with better AV equipment. If they all go bad crazy at the same time, the national guard can sort them out.

You really want people finding God in an environment containing pets, firearms, cooking equipment and children ? You're even less responsible than I thought !

Hey, be a dear and keep all the farting in one general vicinity please. Packs a better wallop when you light it.

Heya Straughn. Haven't seen you until now on the new server.

maybe I'll just put a disclaimer in my sig that serious posts will carry an annotation as such, it might be easier.

Stupid Creationist Website wrote:According to evolutionists, the dinosaurs “ruled the Earth” for 140 million years, dying out about 65 million years ago. However, scientists do not dig up anything labeled with those ages. They only uncover dead dinosaurs (i.e., their bones), and their bones do not have labels attached telling how old they are. The idea of millions of years of evolution is just the evolutionists’ story about the past. No scientist was there to see the dinosaurs live through this supposed dinosaur age. In fact, there is no proof whatsoever that the world and its fossil layers are millions of years old.

This is why creationists don't mix well with science.

I don't know why everyone says this. Regardless of whether it's a good film or not, the film is predominately set in Northumbria, famed for its Castles and home to the Pennine mountains, the topography is fine.

Well that would be geography, not topography, and anyway, for all you know the Americans knew the castle still had survivors, or maybe the roads south east were blocked/dragon infested or whatever.

Right, but some parts will obviously be worse than others, and it would probably be quicker to go north over the top of the Pennines then down the east coast than try and force your way across a mountain range whose roads haven't been maintaned for over a decade.

Still fairly hilly, plus the dense population levels of the pre-dragon West Midlands would probably result in a higher incidence of roadblocks and crashes etc on the roads, as well as a higher number of dragons.

That was in Asia. In Europe, they said "Yep, giants." See Pliny the Elder's tourist guides to the Greek Islands for all the best places to view "giant bones" (sometimes even identified as the bones of Herakles or the bones of Orestes, etc) in shrines in all the hot ancient vacation spots. I saw a History Channel show about it once't.
