One time attending a science centre in Calgary, they had a presentation on dinosaurs. The audience was primarily made up of kids and their parents.
At the end of the presentation, the speaker said something rather startling. He said that. “if the asteroid had not hit the earth dinosaurs would continue to evolve”. Then he proceeded to show a picture of what can be described as a “lizard man”. He concluded; “chances are we would look like this creature today”.
So, according to the speaker, if it wasn’t for a freak accident we would NOT look like or even be humans.
Recently, another paleontologist suggested that we would look like shrews because dinosaurs would prevent us from evolving into humans.
Thankfully, scripture sets the record straight in that we were created as human beings made in the image of God right from the beginning.
In Genesis Chapter 1 verses 26 & 27 it reads. "Then God said, ‘let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of all the air, over the livestock over all the earth and over all the creatures that move along the ground.’ So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them."
Land creatures like dinosaurs were created by God. “And God said, ‘let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds; livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind” (Genesis 1:24)
Thankfully we were created by a loving God and not a result of some wayward asteroid.
