In countries all around the world, one can readily find pictures, stories, and legends which depict dragons. China should immediately come to mind as an example. Who has not seen the colorful depictions of dragons in their various celebrations and especially in New Year festivities.
Were the dragons seen in China, many European countries, Australia and elsewhere all just ‘thought up’ by accident?
Or, is it possible that folks in the not so distant past had actually seen real dragons (known to us today as Dinosaurs)? Hmmm.
Did dragons (dinosaurs) live millions and millions of years ago in the dim remote past? Or, were dragons (dinosaurs) created by God during Creation week, and then after the 2 dragons on the ark left the ark, continued to populate the earth, though in lesser numbers than previously?
Well, to help you ponder those thoughts, I found a couple of articles that might add some insight as to WHEN dragons (dinosaurs) might have lived.
And for those of you wondering why I keep putting ‘dinosaurs’ in parentheses, it is because the name dinosaur was coined in 1841 by Sir Richard Owen. Before that time, they were known in history and legends as dragons.
Anyway, enough of ‘giving away the plot’ in the articles. So, to read the first article from ICR, HERE’S THE LINK
And to read an even more fascinating article about Dragons that John Calvin might have seen or known about (Yes, THE John Calvin !!) HERE’S THE LINK
