Because the term only came into use in the 19th century, the [[Bible]] obviously does not use the word "dinosaur."  However, they are alleged to be mentioned in numerous places throughout the biblical account. For example, the '''behemoth''' in [[Job]]  and the '''leviathan''' in [[Isaiah]] are sometimes said to be references to dinosaurs, although they could have been references to anything large, such as the Egyptian pyramids, Jesus' ego, a huge hailstone that still has not melted despite having fallen in one of the hottest places on Earth, or a squid caught by Yemeni fishermen while illegally fishing off the coast of Bahrain. <ref>[http://www.answersingenesis.org/tj/v15/i2/behemoth.asp "Could Behemoth have been a dinosaur?"], ''TJ'' 15(2):42–45, August 2001</ref> Other biblical scholars who are not reported to enjoy recreational drugs contend that the terms respectively refer to hippopotomi and crocodiles <ref>http://www.answersincreation.org/job4041a.htm</ref>.

==== "Terrible Lizard" ====
 +
Dinosaur means "terrible lizard"... Lizards never stop growing. All it takes for a lizard to become a "dinosaur" is a long life span. Given the water canopy in the pre-flood environment filtering out ultra-violight radiation from the Sun, it is probable that many lizards were able to enjoy a lifespan of hundreds of years, becoming what is known as a dinosaur.
