I propose paradise happened before humans came onto the scene? Imagine an ancient world about 65 million years ago with earth covered in lush jungle gardens and dinosaurs and other magnificent creatures. It was a marvelous time for God’s creatures. After millions of years, they had reached the pinnacle of development, the world was now ready for paradise. Pleased with his creation, God froze time on earth. Now, the magnificent creatures would have everlasting life with God and His angels.
The tragic event happened shortly after God and His angels were in a garden with huge dinosaurs and other creatures. In God’s presence, dinosaurs trumpeted joyfully and large-winged birds flew gracefully chirping songs of adoration. Other creatures, each in their own way, made joyful sounds praising God’s glory and holiness. Suddenly, a mysterious dark object appeared on earth. Creatures squealed in fear and scattered. For Satan, it was a victorious moment. God and His angels had returned to heaven. After Satan’s imprisonment in the universe, it was an opportunity to strike back at God.
Above, dark clouds covered the sky and, below, gloomy shadows and cold air filled gardens, formerly warm from tropical climate. Fearful of the threat, huge dinosaurs stumbled in the murky light. Around them, smaller creatures scurried into garden thickets. Lightning flashed as thunder struck earth with a terrifying roar. Creatures eternal party with God and His angels was over. They struggled in a new world, one torn by nature’s fury. Volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, capricious weather and storms were now commonplace. Without God’s presence, the world had become a very dangerous place.
Now, free to roam, Satan turned his wrath on God’s creatures. Satan was prone to cruel outbursts and sadistically treatment of the creatures. They had to make painful adjustments in a forsaken world. Satan terrorized them indulging in vicious attacks and cruel seductions. To end the horror, God made a large asteroid hit earth causing the dinosaurs and many other creatures to become extinct.
Let's not forget the Bible was written by goat herders, not dinosaur herders. From a goat herders point of view, "In the beginning god created man." When the goat herders created their god, they did not know about the dinosaurs, or the geological events that occurred prior to man's existence.

I respect goat herders. It may not be good that we've discovered all of those dinosaur bones. It makes us question human importance.
This is an addition to my paradise thread. I believe the entire world was paradise, not just parts where God and His angels visited. The whole earth appeared as bright misty glow reflecting God's holiness.

Let's not forget the Pentateuch was written by a man trained in all the wisdom of Egypt.
The majority of the New Testament was written by Paul, trained under Gamaliel.
Some of the Old Testament was written by one of the wisest men ever; Solomon.
Some were written by kings.
Some were written by prophets.
And let's not forget what the original post is about. The bible does not say dinosaurs were in the garden of Eden. They may have been but it just doesn't say.
No there will not be dinosaurs in Paradise , as these creatures where of the reptiles kind with similar body structure as the birds like the raptor birds ........These species are lost when the earth was destroyed many times before man .......So if God still has the spirit of these animals , we probably never know ,not in this time or the time to come , as God has secrets which He may never reveal to man , as the purpose is for God and His

According to Genesis the animals are not named, just humans. In my statement I propose that paradise happened before humans evolved. I didn't make reference to the Genesis story because I don't believe it. I believe paradise happened during the dinosaur era.

So you don't believe a record of the event, but you believe a completely fictitious account of your own devising?
