Now that that's settled, I motion that we discuss why some Christians believe dinosaurs are a hoax.

I can answer that with what my grandparents told me "dinosaur fossils were planted by the devil to dissuade christians into believing that the world wasn't made in 7 days" overall dinosaurs show something was on the earth before the first two humans which goes against Christianity origins and it's also a doorway towards the exploration of evolution and hardcore Christians don't like evolution at all at least that's what I understood from it when my grandparents explained it to me

Imo tho dinosaurs and evolution don't necessarily disprove Christianity since I've written essays explaining how they can both exist at the same time

I mean, I was never taught dinosaurs didn't exist. I was only taught that all of creation is six thousand years old. So, in short, the Flintstones was a documentary, yo. Don't mind the evidence for older civilizations or other branches of humanity (We have their DNA in our own!!!! You can't fake that, it either is or isn't and that's it.) or the fact that it takes longer than that to even get all the variations in melatonin that we have...etc. It was all made six thousand years ago, Methuselah lived right up until the pyramids were built (Dude lived 969yrs evidently.) and there was a world wide flood that really only shows proof for a local major flood.... buuuuut....it happened and the whole world repopulated ,animals, plants, bugs 'n all in a few thousand years. Oh and the continents all shifted within that time, too.
Aliens! It was ALIENS!!!

That reminds me of a lady I had a crush on trying to convince me the world was only ten thousand years old. I didn't realize she was so religious.
I mean besides all the evidence that it's much older I find such a neat version of history rather boring.
Infact I wasn't aware people genuinely believed that the world was only that old. I was interested in geology, archeology, and prehistoric animals as a kid. You can just see from soil layers how old the Earth is.

Yeah... It's based on the generations between Adam to Jesus and then to current time. Adam to Jesus was around four thousand years and then Jesus until now is another two thousand.

- In fact, Adam was named after the elements he was created from. It explains that God created the first man, who he called Adam, from mere dust. It is closely related to a word in Hebrew which means dust. The name Eve means to give life, she was given the name Eve, which is closely related to the name Eva in Latin which originated from the Hebrew name ‘Chavah’, which means living or to give life.
- Before Eve, God made Lilith who was the first wife of Adam in Mesopotamian and Judaic mythology, Lilith is cited as having been "banished" from the Garden of Eden for not complying with and obeying Adam and then would not return to the Garden of Eden after she had coupled with the archangel Samael. She is thought to be mentioned in Biblical Hebrew in the Book of Isaiah, and in Late Antiquity in Mandaean mythology and Jewish mythology sources from 500 CE onward. before Lilith, her personality is like women who are trying to get their rights back. A strong independent woman with self-confidence who is finding true happiness on her own without having to rely on another person or society for validation.
- Amazingly the Bible explains that Adam lived until he was 930 years old. It could be perceived as his spirit lived on for 930 years rather than him as a physical being.
- The forbidden fruit might not have been an apple, it says that a forbidden “fruit” was picked by Eve from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. A reason for this could be that the Latin word for evil is “malum” but it is also the same word as apple, Latin translation which appeared in the fourth century AD in Roman Empire.
- The story of Adam and Eve is different across the world, ancient versions of the story of Adam and Eve include the Greek Apocalypse of Moses, in Georgian the Book of Adam, the Slavonic life of Adam and the Armenia Penitence of Adam.
- Adam had 6 children with Eve once they left the Garden of Eden, they were called Seth, Cain, Abel, Azura, Awan and Luluwa.
- It was mankind’s choice to eat the forbidden fruit. That means that when he had the choice to eat the forbidden fruit, there could have been an influence in his decision from all the souls he contained. If that is the case then all 7.5 billion of us today, had an influence on how our world has developed today.
- Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit on purpose. Known as “the fall of man”, it is sometimes debated that eating the fruit was a mistake. The reason being, why would you want to risk being exiled from the Garden of Eden? Life for Adam and Eve, although almost perfect it was not challenging.
- Both Adam and Eve are saints. They are both recognized as saints and on December 24th every year a feast is held in their celebration. It has been celebrated since the Middle Ages across Europe including Scandinavian nations. That date was chosen specifically as it lies the day before Christmas, the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. The day is to honor and remember Adam and Eve as the creators of mankind.
- It is unknown when Eve died. Although across many texts it explains that Adam lived until he was 930, many texts don’t mention Eve. You would assume Eve to be the same age as they were both created on the 6th day.

Yup. Heard all of that... And poor Lilith has to suffer eternally by watching all of her babies die during birth. So, she is essentially a succubus with the caveat of watching her babies die. Why? She rebelled, wanted equality and then yelled out god's name in anger, which no one was to ever say.
She was made of the same clay as Adam.... Eve? Bone of MY bone and flesh of MY flesh. Subservient to a fault.
