Coexistence of Humans and Dinosaurs

Over the years, Darwinian evolution has been attempting to gain a monopoly over dinosaurs. In order to expand the time line of evolutionary dating, Darwinian scientists must control the belief of dinosaur history. They have been very successful in their endeavor. I remember growing up in elementary and junior high school thinking how to combine dinosaurs that I was taught lived 65+ million years ago and the Bible. I struggled with this question for a long time because dinosaurs fascinated me, but I also trusted the biblical history of man. In public education, I was only fed the Darwinian evolutionary theory of time and dinosaurs. In essence, Darwinian evolution must have the controlling belief of dinosaur history in order to continue to preach their beloved theory. Why is the belief that dinosaurs lived 65+ million years and no man has seen a dinosaur so prevalent? Cause it is true? Nope. I believe it is because children from an extremely early age are being indoctrinated with this Darwinian evolutionary idea of dinosaurs and man. How early? In 2002, Stephen Holmes published a pop-up book titled "Life on Earth". On the cover of the book, a baby is sitting on the nose of a dinosaur! So is there evidence out there that suggests humans and dinosaurs once lived and walked together here upon this earth. Obviously there must be or I would not be writing this article. In this article, I want to examine just one powerful piece of physical evidence for the coexistence of humans and dinosaurs.

We will examine the dinosaur petro glyph, or rock carving, at the Kachina Bridge National Monument in southeastern Utah. According to rock-art experts, the petro glyphs at Kachina Bridge are believed to be carved by the Anasazi Indians dating back 500 to 1,500 years ago. The most famous, infamous to some, is a petro glyph depicting an animal with a long, thick tail, long neck, and small head in comparison to its large body size. Are you able to imagine any living animal that fits this description? I introduce to you the Apatosaurus of Kachina Bridge National Monument.



I wish it could be seen in these pictures, but it is not. Just a few feet to the upper right of the carving (upper left looking at the picture), there is another carving of a man. So, we have a carving of a human and dinosaur side by side maybe drawn by the same artist. A couple of questions need to be asked. Obviously first, how did the Anasazi Indians know how to depict so accurately an Apatosaurus in 500-1500A.D.? Did the Anasazi Indians dig up dinosaur fossils, reconstruct the bones in the correct order, and imagine the correct skin dimensions from the perfectly reconstructed bones? Not sure I would take that bet. A much more logical and reasonable explanation is that the Anasazi Indians saw and walked with an Apatosaurus. The next question is how do Darwinian evolutionists explain this petro glyph? When visiting Kachina Bridge, Kyle Butt and Eric Lyons of Apologetics Press, Inc. asked one of the assistant workers at the visitor’s center this very question. The worker responded, “They don’t really want to explain it.” Imagine that. She went on to say that some think the petro glyph depicts a horse. However, the problem with this hopeful explanation is one the carving looks nothing like a horse and two the Anasazi Indians were a horseless people. Horses did not arrive in America until Spanish settlers in the 16th century. Another question is did Apatosaurus live in the southeastern portion of Utah where the Anasazi Indians dwelt? Interestingly, Apatosaurus hip bone fossils were found in Blanding, Utah during the 1960s only fifty miles from the Kachina Bridge petro glyph (Dinosaur). So, why would this petro glyph disturb Darwinian evolutionists? Obviously, this rock carving makes a mockery of the thought that humans and dinosaurs are separated by 65+ million years. Then, it also brings into serious question carbon and radiometric dating methods, mainly radiometric dating because it is used to date dinosaur fossils, which give these dates of millions and billions of years old. Also, Darwinian evolutionists can no longer parade around dinosaurs as an icon for evolution. As mentioned above, the carvings depict a human in close proximity to a dinosaur. Finally and most importantly here, this petro glyph gives testament to the biblical account of humans and dinosaurs being created together on day six of creation (Genesis 1:24-27).

When looking at a picture of the petro glyph, only one clear and logical conclusion can be drawn. The Anasazi Indians had to have seen a real life Apatosaurus to carve this petro glyph.The Anasazi Indians carved an amazingly accurate depiction of Apatosaurus centuries before man began to uncover dinosaur fossils and take the time to reconstruct their remains with precision. Dinosaurs have long been the favorite icon of evolution. However, dinosaurs should be removed as the poster child of Darwinian evolution. The Apatosaurus petro glyph of Kachina Bridge National Monument is but one of many physical evidences for the coexistence of humans and dinosaurs.
