Nope! nada.
A crocodile does not breathe out fire and set coal's on fire with his breath, and his underbelly is soft, not impregnable with a spear. Crocodiles are caught, and Leviathan is not, and a crocodile is not the chief of God's creation over all the children of pride..
whales do not eat grass like an ox and a whale does not have a tail like a cedar tree and leave pointy imprints in the mud with his claws.
and what on earth are you substituting for a fiery flying serpent? can't figure that one out.

I respect your opinion and I have heard this argument before. So how do you explain the physical proof of things that are older than biblical belief?
I would really like to know and in my 58 years, nobody has ever done anything but avoid the question. You seem knowledgeable and perhaps you are the one to enlighten me.
Well, I really don't know how much I can enlighten you. I am not a Christian or Jew. I study the bible from a scholarly perspective, not a spiritual one. Being an agnostic, I cannot explain the existence of things that are older than the bible from a spiritual point-of-view. I believe in evolution, but certainly acknowledge that science doesn't have ALL the answers...yet anyway and maybe never will. I see the Old Testament as a collection of Jewish mythology no different than the tales of Homer. So with all that said, I don't really think I can help enlighten you unless you can accept scientific explanations.

Boy, YHWH's very own words in the Bible describing a dinosaur really grates you guys and gets under your skin- but why?, since you deny the Bible anyway, does it cause you to gnash your teeth and foam at the mouth so?
Quote:
Job 40:15 "Look now at the behemoth, which I made along with you;
He eats grass like an ox.
See now, his strength is in his hips, And his power is in his stomach muscles.
Hemoves his tail like a cedar; The sinews of his thighs are tightly knit.
His bones are like beams of bronze, His ribs like bars of iron.
He is the first of the ways of God; Only He who made him can bring near His sword.
Surely the mountains yield food for him,
And all the beasts of the field play there.
He lies under the lotus trees,
In a covert of reeds and marsh.
The lotus trees cover him with their shade;
The willows by the brook surround him.
Indeed the river may rage, Yet he is not disturbed;
He is confident, though the Jordan gushes into his mouth,
Though he takes it in his eyes, Or one pierces his nose with a snare.
There is just no debating with someone who refuses reality for fantasy and fairy tales, like you.
Have you tried debating? -I haven't noticed any attempt yet, on your part, to do anything at all in a scholarly manner. I have noticed your childish mocking and jeering, though.
