    This deserves digging up.

    Brilliant. Where is Scoffy, these days?

    He's off modding politics. I think he got bored of toying with J C.

    He was at the last A&A beers. Better make sure he knows of the next one...

    Does that dinosaur have a beard?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,479 ✭✭✭✭philologos


    Zillah: Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. It isn't putting across the ferocious dinosaur look across.

    ScienceNerd: It is uncanny isn't it?

    I took it to be a neck warmer, I had assumed it was a reference to the fierce cold that followed the meteor impact that killed the dinosaurs until I remembered that they actually were wiped out in the great flood 3000 years ago.

    Pfft here you are just showing typical evil atheist ignorance... The flood was 4000 years ago not 3000 and they were taken onto the ark but then died in the ice age that followed the flood... Except for the ones that didn't like rhinocerous, the Loch Ness monster, and many others...(Rhinocerous, is just a missspelling of Rhinosaurus, that's a clear clue! Why would Adam name it that if it wasn't a dinosaur)

    I could go on but shockingly am worried that somepeople wouldn't get that I wasn't serious. (funny or not is another matter...)

    Likewise, though this one made me laugh:
    •An amazing place – much needed. We are home educators from Windsor and come whenever visiting family in Bognor. The information is fantastic. I don’t know how to write thank you and just how much this is what we need today.

    As the interwebs would say, "LOL Wut?" :confused:

    Are you Rapture Ready, but don't know what to do with Rover? Not all dogs go to Heaven, but with Eternal Earthbound Pets, you don't need to worry. We'll find your pet a loving home, post rapture, and all for the low, low price of $110.

    In all seriousness (yes, wrong thread I know :p), the jolly old T.Rex is probably intentional, certain creationists are trying to put it forward against all scientific evidence to the contrary (what?! never!) that T. Rex was a herbivore.
    Most geologists would say humans and dinosaurs were separated by more than 60 million years. And those dinosaurs have very sharp teeth!
    "So do bears", says Ken, "but they eat nuts and berries! Remember, before the sin of Adam, the world was perfect. All creatures were vegetarian."

    TBH, i'd say Barney would kick that dino's ass.

    Grizzly Bear skull - has some sharp teeth for eating flesh and other flat teeth for eating vegetation. Omnivore:

    Tyrannosaurus rex skull - has sharp teeth suitable for eating flesh, but not suitable for eating vegetation. Carnivore:

    An ecosystem with no carnivores to cull the herbivores would result in their numbers increasing to the point where they ran out of food and died a slow death of starvation.

    Also nothing would decay because bacteria/fungi would be veggies :p

    I've spent too much time looking for the clip... but I am reminded of the Kelp Shark clip from the Simpsons...

    Actually a vaguely Ken Ham-ish beard, isn't it?

    seen it before but it's just as funny now as it was then :)
    In fairness though unlike some, that call applies the same logic and scrutiny to theological ideas as he does to non-theological ones.

    Just watched this trailer. Had me in stitches.

    http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pictures/legion/
    In the supernatural action thriller Legion, an out-of-the-way diner becomes the unlikely battleground for the survival of the human race. When God loses faith in Mankind, he sends his legion of angels to bring on the Apocalypse. Humanity’s only hope lies in a group of strangers trapped in a desert diner and the Archangel Michael (Paul Bettany). Legion also stars Dennis Quaid, Lucas Black, Tyrese Gibson, Kate Walsh, Adrianne Palicki, Charles S. Dutton and Willa Holland and is directed by Scott Stewart.

    WTF!

    Much as I love stuff like Resident Evil and Dawn of the Dead that just looks awful. The whole God/Angel element just doesn't make any sense - it's a like a Saturday Night Live skit.

    At least Dogma's gun toting angels didn't take themselves so seriously.
