Someone must be wrong, I'll say. It is either those hundreds of cultures that saw dinosaurs or people that sit in labs and theorize about stuff. Take your pick.
googleSearch if there is one thing I've learned ever about anything its framing questions fairly is important. That framing is clearly biased. One could point out that people that sit in labs and theorize about stuff are right quite frequently, there is plenty of evidence for that; the website where on right now the computer that we use to read it and post things, the automobile the airplane the toaster the fridge the radio the microwave, etc. are all made based on the principles discovered by people who sit in labs and thoerize about stuff.
So lets be fair.
I feel its incumbent on me to point out that the fact hundreds of cultures belief in something DOES NOT NESSECARILY MAKE IT TRUE. It is a good and valid point I'll grant you but it its not a complete case.
There are other possible explantions, Jungs universal subconsious theory that indicates certain things will always be imagined by human being cause thats how human beings think. Dinosaur bones (assume for a moment that Dinosaurs are seperate from dragons Dionysios) could easily inspire belief in dragons. In evolution theory the human race has common origin in Africa (I graps that many of you dont believe in evolution but bear with me) its possible that the dragon has a story created among the original group of humans htat survived albeit with distortion hundres of centuries of migration.
My point isnt to say dragons do not exist merely that several other possible explanations exists for the presence of dragons in many diverse cultures.
As to sightings of dragons since the belief in them is so widespread people might leap to the conclusion a dragon is what they saw when all they really see is a fleeting shape in the distance.
Please note my point is not that dragons do not exists it is possible for dragons to exists regardless of whether evolutionism or creationism is true. My point was simply that all the arguments presented so far on behalf of dragons existing while legitimate is not nearly as overwhelming as googleSearch framing of the issue leads one to believe.
Ps Thanks or intiating this disscussion by the way Dionysios
