The oldest dinosaur.

Romans 1:25


Many people mistakenly believe that dinosaurs prove evolution. After all,dinosaurs are strange creatures and seem to represent a very different world from the one we know today.But recent discovery of the most ancient dinosaur challenges this.

The oldest dinosaur ever discovered was about six feet long and weighed about 300 pounds.Scientists had never before seen a complex skeleton of the creature they called Herrerasaurus. But being the most ancient dinosaur,perhaps the dinosaur from which all others evolved,evolutionary scientists expected it to be much less advanced than later dinosaurs.What they found out was yet another well-designed creature.

The meat-eating dinosaur had excellent teeth,like those of a shark; its jawbone had a double hinge so that it could easily hang onto its prey.These sophisticated features weren't expected in such an ancient dinosaur. This is yet another proof that all creatures were well-designed from the beginning. Herrerasaurus is yet one more example of the impossibility of evolution.

Dinosaurs,just like all other creatures,were created by God during the first six days the universe existed. This means that dinosaurs and humans once shared this earth in the recent past.All things were created in a perfect state, so there was no need for evolved improvements. The changes we see since creation are not due to evolution but due to degenerating effects of sin.
