To their own ignorance and shame, of course they do not. God's Word is held higher by Him than His name, and His word is true from the beginning, and does not change, as He does not change. Men's words are always changing, and those who call themslves evolutionists are not governed by concensus among themselves, and their words change with the daily newspaper. They do not know how, when, where, or why; they are just 'sure' that it has nothing to do with God or His Word -silly men!

"Another fascinating Chinese artifact is the Late Eastern Zhou Sauropod (Fang Jian) Ornamental box. Displaying a tridactyl foot, a long neck and a head that resembles a brachiosaur, this depiction is compelling. (Fong, Wen ed., The Great Bronze Age of China, Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1980, p. 285.)

Somehow, I don't think Consantine would uphold this wild belief born out of naivete.

"The art below is from a Mesopotamian cylinder seal dated at 3300 BC. (Moortgart, Anton, The Art of Ancient Mesopotamia, 1969, plate 292.) The animal on the right is an artists conception from a skeleton of an Apatosaurus. There are many striking similarities between these two depictions. The legs and feet on the Egyptian art clearly fit the sauropods better than any other type of animal. The biggest difference is at the head. Cartilage forming the shape of a frill or ears may be stylized or accurate (since there is no way to know from the skeletons we have today). As for the musculature, the Egyptian artist draws with stunning realism. One has to ask where the artist got the model to draw so convincingly the trunk of a sauropod?

Ancient Dinosaur Depictions
"To the right is a Roman mosaic from about 200 AD that depicts two long-necked sea dragons. Paul Taylor, author of The Great Dinosaur Mystery and the Bible, likens them to the web-footed Tanystropheus shown beside."

Once, the sun and moon stood still for almost a full day, by Joshua's command.
Once, the sun went backwards ten degrees, as a sign for Hezekiah, by the prophet's command.

Before the flood, Enoch gave the complete astronomical calendar of the ordinances of the heavens. Uriel showed them to him and he wrote them all down. Uriel [whose name is the same as light] is set over the stars/constellations and the sun and moon.
You're kidding right?

You think the sun and stars all go round the earth because it says so in Genesis?

http://www.genesispark.org/genpark/ancient/graphic/dogon.jpg (broken link) Another African tribe from the Mali region is known for producing dinosaurian objects in the mid-1800's . This is the same timeframe when Sir Richard Owen coined the term dinosaur in England. The bronze artifact to the left shows a Dogon tribesman riding a long-necked, long-tailed reptilian creature. The oddly bird-like head with strong jawline is reminiscent of the "duck bill" on certain Ornithopod dinosaurs. The diamond-shaped pattern on the skin matches fossilized skin impressions discovered on a hadrosaur in southern Utah."

Because it would be completely impossible for an ancient artist to see a fossilized skeleton and be able to draw a decent representation of the creature it came from. After all, because all ancient men were VEGANS they never EVER saw skeletons from the inside of animals, so they'd have NO IDEA of how a creature might look when it was alive.

Good grief, we need to match you up with Campbell. You're both batguano crazy.

.
The whole Bible speaks of the sun rising and setting over the earth, and going round its circuit, on its path.

So you do believe the earth is fixed in place and the sun and stars revolve around it?

Is this the creation "science" you were taught in homeschool?
