Dinosaurs. Since having kids this subject has been bugging me for a few years. We went to the museum and saw the T-rex model and other dino things , books about dinosaurs, you can buy little clip together dinosaur toys but there is one thing which always bothers me about it and that is whether its real.
Did dinosaurs actually exist or is it just a marketing strategy to get money off people?
I've never seen a real dinosaur bone. All the ones in museums are made of some sort of resin material (the excuse being the "real ones" are too fragile to be touched by plebs).
I think its just an elaborate scam and they never existed.

Or is just what you tell your kids so you don't have to buy them any dinasaur toys? I never buy them new toys. Well they did get some pound land things but I hate spoiling them like that. I tell them its up to them to decide about what to believe in. I don't want them to have fixed ideas. I also tell them I don't believe in gods but if they want to when they are bigger its up to them. I just hope they don't turn out like me ! |

We haven't been to the moon either. Well, that's true. It was difficult enough to get a car to start on a damp morning in 1969, let alone fly a rocket to the moon and back. |

R u talking about the Natural History Museum?..I went last week and i thought there were some actual bones suspended up high away from 'Joe Public'
I enjoyed my visit...I gave the 2 grand daughters magnifying glasses and told them to look carefully for the tiny blue whale skeleton(its huge) and I have a cracking pic of one of them peering upwards through her mag glass...
Dinosaurs be real.....I think......

blue whale skeletons aren't ancient fossils, unlike fragile ancient dinosaur bones. ..... in fact it is unlikely that you will ever find a dinosaur BONE. ...... what you may find is the fossilised remains of what were once bones (but where those bones have been replaced by rock minerals deposited during the thousands/millions of years since the animal died). ... so a resin copy is just like the stone copy - just a copy.

I don't like dinosaurs, because of the way they used to eat cavemen.

Yeah I know blue whales are not dinosaurs but I think they have dino bones in display cases as well as recreated resin replicas...I didn't waffle on long enough on my previous post to make things clear.... must read before hitting post......... |
