Dinosaurs died because of sin!
excerpt from “There Go the Dinosaurs”
My friend Mark Miller pointed me to this fascinating cartoon that offers a thorough explanation of how creationists explain dinosaurs. I’ve heard a lot of this before, but never so succinctly! This cartoon comes courtesy of Chick Publications, “publishers of Gospel publications for over 40 years” (according to their website).
Jack Chick, the publisher, has an interesting take on other religions. He states on his site that Roman Catholicism is not Christian, and that Allah was worshipped as a pagan moon god long before Mohammed came on the scene. Clearly there are no contradictions within his own personal vision of Christianity.
He also states on his website “God in His Singular providential care has KEPT HIS WORD all through the ages, right down to the present day as found in the King James Version. We consider this version our final and absolute authority, above and beyond all other authorities on earth.” Now, whether you are religious or not, this seems a bit unlikely to me considering how the book was pieced together over a huge amount of time and translated from a variety of languages. I guess this explains dinosaurs though.
