    Anyone working on theory of dinosaurs and how do they fit into the TOE or GUT?

    There's a coupla people looking at the porosity of the cells of dinosaur bones in search for possible clues that gravity may not have been the same in the fairly recent past, as it is now... Other than that, Silly Sally, although there may be several potential avenues of research on the issues of dinosaurs, I don't know of any. Good question.

    I never thought the dinosaurs existed in the same location the earth is in now. They were always on this planet but located somewhere else. I think that's how they became extinct too, before the earth was reformed here.

    Then time would have been measured differently too if the gravity was different. I figured those 6 or 7 days were closer to 24 million years. The 2 middle days took the same amount of time but it slowly started decreasing. The earth used to spin a lot faster. One day was equal to 3 hours, then I factored in "6,000" years ago too but it ended up in the millions actually (that's just according to our time now). I agree that gravity and time weren't the same as they are now.

    I saw something really ironic and funny this morning. Parked out front of the Church of Christ was an emergency squad with flashing lights on! I couldn't believe it, I started laughing so hard.

    Thank you for this thread R.P.

    You are always a most generous host at your threads.

    Thank you also for letting me and Cosvis to ramble on and off the subject of your " Holy Man Site "

    Sally, the only thing I know about dinosaurs is a purple one named Barney. You know " I love you, you love me .."

    Best,

    Pat

    Rascal,I have in my collection a piece of fossilsed dinosaur dung,do you think I could
    possibly extract some dna from this? And bring back this mighty beast!

    Hi Michael;

    Are you home or still in Turkey? How is it going?

    I think the only way to extract dinosaur DNA is from a mesquito that has been fossilized in amber.

    Best to you,

    Pat
