dinosaur in the Bible
-
Which feeds on grass? I'm no paleontologist but I most definitely have not seen a reptile that ate grass. Regardless, further down it's akin to a dragon. Assuredly that's possible considering animals do exploit all sorts of things (geckos with their crazy adhesive feet fibres, electric eels, etc) but where is the evidence?

21 Under the lotus plants he lies,
hidden among the reeds in the marsh.22 The lotuses conceal him in their shadow;
the poplars by the stream surround him.23 When the river rages, he is not alarmed;
he is secure, though the Jordan should surge against his mouth.I'd say it's more like a hippopotamus than a dinosaur. What makes you think the Bible should mention dinosaurs, anyway?

Why shouldn't the Bible mention dinosaurs?
Is it because you guys believe dinos once lived alongside humans?

Dinosaur Petroglyph on Kachina Bridge
The highlight for me was seeing Kachina Bridge in Natural Bridges National Monument. This natural bridge of rock has been formed by water gouging out the softer rock beneath. It is 210 feet (64.0 meters) high and spans 206 feet (62.8 meters). We hiked down to the bottom of the valley to see it close up, and sure enough, there were a number of fading-but-still-visible petroglyphs including one of a sauropod dinosaur. The dinosaur image was in the same style as all the other petroglyphs on the rock near Kachina bridge -
Protip Go read some actual paleontology and history of life texts, pvb. You're only making yourself look silly with this dinos-alongside-humans thing.

Andya Primanda -How do you explain the Dinosaur Petroglyph on Kachina Bridge?
In general,
http//www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CH/CH710.html
There are no human fossils or artifacts found with dinosaurs, and there are no dinosaur fossils found with human fossils (except birds, which are descended from dinosaurs; out-of-place human traces such as the Paluxy footprints do not withstand examination). Furthermore, there is an approximately sixty-four-million-year gap in the fossil record when there are neither dinosaur nor human fossils. If humans and dinosaurs coexisted, traces of the two should be found in the same time places. At the very least, there should not be such a dramatic separation between them.
For the petroglyphs... the 'dinosaurs' depicted look like obsolete scientific assumption of sauropods. Read under "An Alleged Rock Carving" here
http//dinocreationistsfairytale.wordpress.com/2006/11/14/book-rebuttal-the-dinosaurs-of-eden-a-biblical-journey-through-time-part-3/I'd point towards the fossil record indicating no dinosaur fossils found in strata younger than 63 million years old, but I doubt you believe in mainstream geology.
