You would think giant man eating lizards running around would get a little mention in the bible wouldn't you? Alas there is no mention because dinosaurs existed and vanished before man even knew how to spell Bible.

Classic flaw and proof that the bible was written by men not God and that that fact alone makes it inherently flawed never mind the countless times it's been rewritten and reinterepreted to fit whatever religious leader's needs.

Religion is a tool. A tool used to control the masses. The bible is but one facet or function of that tool.
The fact that the Bible doesn't mention dinosaurs doesn't mean it claims they don't exist.
Neandrathal man: Ape-like creatures. I'm sure they'll be digging up ape-like fossils from our time too. That doesnt' mean we don't exist.
Cave drawings- I have a picture on my wall. Does that mean that its my highest level of communication? We have no reason to blieve that wasn't just a game the kids were playing.
The Bible hasn't changed at all. You can go to the store and buy a Hebrew Bible (Probably not in America bue elsewhere) and it will have the same message as the oldest Bible ever found. Google " Dead Sea Scrolls "... There's no change.
