In fact, at Answers in Genesis, we call dinosaurs “missionary lizards.”

for some reason, I find this really funny. Its either really sexual, or I just cant get that old TV programme V out of my mind.
what I'm surprised about is how few Creationists use the (i think this is the right name) Catastrophe theory to explain the whole dinosaur, evolution, oh-look-the-world-is-billions-of-years-old thing. If memory serves me correctly, Catastrophe theory states that God created a universe, it was full of dirty sinners so he destroyed it. And then the same thing happened again. And again. Thus creating the strata of fossilised creatures that can be found. And the last great Catastrophe was the Great Flood and because the world is full of dirty sinners again, we can expect plagues of locusts, rivers of blood and the death of our first borns any day now.
Oh, I just realised why Christians wouldn't like that theory...god being fallible, fucking up his creations continuously and human being being nothing more than a rough cut of the real deal (which might take another half dozen catastrophes to rectify). But its still one of my favourite religious theor'ies.
