[In response to the question "Do people actually believe dinosaur bones were placed by GOD to test our faith???"
No dinosaur bones were there because they were created in the 6th day of creation with all the land animals. Most died out by the flood.
There were two on the ark. The bible talks about them as dragons.

God creates fossils with superb artificial aging so that to every test we can devise they appear millions of years old just so he can say 'gotcha' and condemn us to an eternity of torture?
but they were babies, see. Maybe they were even unhatched eggs, and Noah sat on them to keep them warm. Of course this does not explain why they didn't reproduce and repopulate like all the other animals after the flood...maybe Noah picked two female eggs?
Wait ~ I thought fundibots believe that everything "died out by the flood" except for the animals onboard the ark. And, now you claim that there were two dinosaurs on the ark, yet we never hear anything of their descendants. Were those two dinos gay, or WHUT?
There were two dragons on the ark? Which ones? Red, Gold, Silver, White?
Tiamat and Bahamut? Oh, THAT would have been a pleasant ride...

"No! Your OTHER head! The cold one!"
Tanniyn is variously translated as dragon, serpent, whale, sea monster or large sea creature. Gregory seems to think we should add "dinosaur" to the list, as well:
"When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Shew a miracle for you: then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast [it] before Pharaoh, [and] it shall become a dinosaur. And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so as the LORD had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a dinosaur . Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments. For they cast down every man his rod, and they became dinosaurs: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods. And he hardened Pharaoh's heart, that he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said."
Must have got rather crowded in that room ...
"Most died out by the flood."
I thought Noah was supposed to take two of EVERY animal with him. What, some species of dinosaurs just weren't good enough?
"There were two on the ark."
Clearly this imbecile has no idea how many species of dinosaurs there were. How would it work with the male of a species sharing living space with the female of a totally different species (that in reality may have lived 100 million years apart anyway?)
Never mind that they were not dragons and that the ark never existed.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
