mLine 79:
Line 79: − − There is also much evidence in artwork that dinosaurs and humans have coexisted in the past, such as the image below showing Jesus Christ riding on the back of a small sauropod, although i have never heard of this being mentioned in the Bible!! − − [[Image:JesusDino.jpg]] − − I am of course just joking, this is in fact a load of old twaddle. To put it politely.

Talk.Origins argues<ref>[http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CH/CH712.html Claim CH712], ''TalkOrigins.org''</ref> that the inclusion of dinosaurs within many cultures is based on the existence of fossils. Ancient people, unaware that the ancient fossils uncovered by erosion were of extinct animals, attributed the bones to living, magical creatures. This would explain the importance of dragons in Chinese culture - there are a large number of dinosaur (as well as non-dinosaur) fossils to be found in China. CreationWiki's response<ref>[http://creationwiki.org/Dragons_were_dinosaurs Dragons were dinosaurs] (rebuttal of Talk.Origins' claim CH712)</ref> is that the fossils reminded people of the legends, not that the fossils inspired the legends.
