In the Book of Job dinosaurs are spoken of, and there are numerous examples of dinosaurs in ancient art. Consider the link below. You will see a Triceratops, and a T-Rex type dinosaur on Ica burial stones.
Apparently the center top carving has been found to be a forgery but that aside, stylized paintings and carvings are not uncommon.
These compared to whole skeletons that are hundreds of thousands of years old are poor evidence indeed.
Even the last two popes have endorsed evolution. I think it time for all Religionists do the same.

There isn't one. Christianity is in a variety of denominations with varying views on everything from Darwin to wearing hats. More general the Bible does not overtly mention dinosaurs nor deny their existence.
This is almost like asking what's Islam's view of aluminum.
Try reading. The Talmud says that Leviathan is a fish. That is made clear in my post.
And the Jewish writers say that Jesus was a false Prophet, and they would be equally wrong. And I was not aware a fish had a neck, tongue, nose, and nostrils, as the Leviathan does. And what kind of fish cannot be killed with a spear?
Who really cares what the bible says about dinosaurs? We know dinosaurs existed, There is proof to their existance, we have fossils, bones and other artifacts. I know some Christians who think that dinosaur bones are fake...they where planted by the devil to discredit the bible. People who take the bible word for word always crack me up...lol.
Yes but for evil to grow, all good men need do is nothing.
The children that end up believing this lie will believe that Gays are an abomination and get in there and Gay bash.
The Islamic equivalent uses bombs. Let us all let them believe as they like. Not.
That very phrase is like fingernails on a chalkboard. If the Church declared that there weren't any dinosaurs, then they automatically become fictional and therefore not believed? I'm afraid I don't understand that at all.
Satan and demons and angels and walking on water does not bother them. Dinosaurs are small impossibles as compared to their larger lies.
If they do not then they should stop lying to children. I D was taken out of schools and this Dino Museum should be closed.

The thing is most of the world's Christians are not Fundamentalists or Evangelicals in the narrow sense. (Pretty much all Christianity is evangelical, but Evangelical means something slightly different) You, and many of the Christians here, are taking a small slice of Christianity and extrapolating from that that there is an established Christian idea on dinosaurs or biology or physics or whatever. And I just don't think that's so. I doubt even the Southern Baptist Council or Lutheran Church Missouri-Synod has any documents specifically discussing dinosaurs. (I picked two groups that are officially/semi-officially Creationist)
there are monsters mentioned in the Bible, could it be that that is what they spoke of ? could it be that in the part of the world (middle east) there were no dinasours to have been seen in Biblical times. At that time im not sure the writers had any idea how big the world was, I mean, in the 15 th centurey people thought the world was flat, so what did people think in biblical times
