Dinosaurs are said to have existed millions of years ago. Many people accept this claim without ever doubting it. While there are said evidential claims, there are many anomalies to question the existence of dinosaurs.
This is not an article whereby the author is taking sides. As a follow-up from questioning Darwin‘s theory of evolution, it’s merely a number of serious questions to challenge the existence of dinosaurs. Are they a hoax? You decide.
So here they are just 10 question to challenge their existence:
1.We’ve been told that dinosaurs were destroyed by an extinction-level event: A sizable comet, meteorite or asteroid… causing dinosaurs to become extinct all at once.
If an extinction-level event of this size had happened, wouldn’t it have also destroyed most of the other life forms on Earth?
The idea of humans and dinosaurs, for examples, reforming through Darwinian evolution natural selection, would be too difficult an explanation
to go down the road with. Further, there’s no archaeological evidence to prove the extinction-level event theory.
2.Following on from above (1), the extinction-level event would not have taken the lives of dinosaur creatures who roamed around and lived in deep seas. They would have avoided the effects of such catastrophes.
-The fact that they are not around today in these deep seas and there are no remnants of them having been there, could this be because the dinosaurs never existed?
3.Because of the enormous sizes of dinosaurs, would their dietary requirements have been too demanding as there wasn’t enough food around for them to have lived off?
Compare this with the animals of today in relation to the food quantities.
For example, an elephant can only live for 18 hours each day without eating. A sauropod dinosaur such as the brontosaurus was claimed to be some 5-10 times larger than the elephant.
In comparative terms, that means, the brontosaurus would therefore have to eat for about 90-180 hour each day!! Yes, this is soundly impossible.
-In other words, there were not enough hours in the day for them to feed themselves!
4.Due to the laws of physics or physiology, weren’t dinosaurs too big to have existed?
Their sheer sizes were way too big to have overcome forces due to gravity; musculature loads in relation to their anatomy…
According to Ted Holden 1994, any creature heavier than 9,436 kilos (20,803 pounds) would have lost the ability to lift its own weight. Having said that, the brontosaurus was said to have weighed some 31,751 kilos (70,000 pounds)!
It was said that other so-called sauropods, such as the diplodocus, were even heavier than the brontosaurus.
Some say that long-neck dinosaurs such as the brontosaurus couldn’t have existed because the blood pressure needed to supply their head and neck would have been impossibly too high. To supply blood all the way to their head and neck would have been so demanding on the heart. To exert such a massive pressure, the heart would have exploded!
-The giraffe, because of its long neck has the highest blood pressure of all when comparing with other land animals. However, this animal is only a tiny fraction in size when compared to sauropods such as the brontosaurus.
Talk about a prime example of impossible physics/biology!
5.If dinosaurs roamed all over the world in numbers back in the day, then why is there such as lack of fossil evidence?
After all, these gargantuan creatures should have left their traces everywhere. Numerous gardeners should have come across countless numbers of dinosaur bones in their gardens, but none have been reported.
6.Did you know the claim that dinosaurs existed some 65 million years ago is hugely flawed?
The problem lies in the radioactive carbon dating, a method used to estimate the age of dinosaurs. Radioactive carbon dating is only accurate as far back as 40,000 years.
To use this method to date something as old as 65 million years is like using a ruler to determine your body temperature. —Only those who don’t understand what a ruler is can be fooled!
“The most crucial dates in modern human evolution are unfortunately beyond the range of the radiocarbon method, which has a limit of about 40,000 years”
-Stanford University Evolutionary geneticist Luigi Cavalli-Sforza, 2000, p. 61. Taken from his book: “Genes, People, and Languages.”
7.Where is the cultural or mythological evidence as proof that dinosaurs existed before the 1800’s?
It’s highly suspicious that dinosaurs didn’t show up in paintings, cave drawings, handed-down unambiguous accounts or studies in their numbers before the 1800’s. Remember, dinosaurs were supposed to be so all-pervasive wherever people were before the 1800’s.
Dinosaurs became popular after Darwin’s publication of ”Origin of the Species” in 1859.
-Both Darwin’s theory and the existence of dinosaurs have been hotly contested…
8.Complete bone-sets making up a dinosaur are nowhere near complete. Why do so many archaeologists, scientists, natural history museum curators… etc., make out they are?
This is disingenuously misleading. When you see those dinosaur skeletons structures in museums most of their compositions are made from chickens or other random bones, plastic or plaster-cast structures…
Much of these dinosaur constructions are also assembled together based on pure guesswork (for example, imaginative artist’s renditions). -No skeletons have ever been found. Those who had claimed whole skeletons turned out to be hoaxers.
9.In reflection of 8 (above), therefore, wasn’t this nothing more than presupposition, propped up by pseudo-science?
You decide.
The questioning of dinosaur orthodoxy has been met with such attack and disapproval, sometimes to the point of denigration, especially in mainstream scientific circles.
This should be enough to sound alarm bells ringing in the ears of any rational enquirer with alternative views, different to orthodoxy. It’s a case of dogma, gross intolerance in the small-minded scientific community.
Finally
That concludes my 10 questions challenging the existence of dinosaurs.
I wholeheartedly encourage you to do your own research on this subject matter.
