Wasn't there a picture in one of the publications of the flood, and in the water is something that looks like the head of a dinosaur sticking out? Does anyone remember this or am I loony?
I am sure I saw this-just can't remember which book. This suggests that the WTS thinks that maybe dinosaurs were still present on earth at the time of the flood-just a few thousand years ago-at which time they became extict.
To reiterate the current teaching of the WTS, though, they do not say that the entire planet was created in seven days-they claim that the planet itself is billions of years old, but the beginning of life on earth-vegetable and animal-theCREATIVE DAYS were each 7,000 years long. That is why they say we are in the time of the end now-that the last creative day began after the creation of Eve, then he rested, and ends with the 1,000 year reign of Christ.
This is why they claim that all life on earth is only 49,000 years old, and have difficulty with explaining the miriad types of dinosaurs in the fossil record. They have to admit they existed, but refuse to say that they were here millions of years ago becuse of their "present understanding" and so don't go there with explanations.
Again-anyone know where to find the picture?
