Dinosaur Denial and the new 50p Coin

[HotTamales]

I saw on FB today that there's going to be dinosaurs on the new 50p coins. This reminded me of a really funny thread I read here years ago from a poster who was adamant that dinosaurs had never existed, they were one big hoax and that it was unchristian to suggest otherwise. Does anyone else remember it? IIRC it got quite heated and was totally bizarre.

I do, it was mad. Wasn't there a Facebook close group about dinosaurs not existing that a large amount of MN users joined to have a nose?

CAD - Christians Against Dinosaurs? Then, DACAD - Dinosaurs Against Christians Against Dinosaurs.

I remember having a bit of fun with them, about 6-7 years ago.

It's definitely in Classics somewhere. Was a genius thread.

Yep. CAD.
I'm in the dacwaad FB group (dinosaurs against Christians who are against dinosaurs)

Sorry, meant to add this.

Squigean! Thanks so much! It was a fantastic thread, completely bonkers. My children will have to make their own dinner now, as I'm off to have a read of this.

I wonder what Christians Against Dinosaurs will make of the new coins? 😂

I remember that thread. My mum says dinosaurs were made up for films. She’s not religious or anything though

That thread's amazing, but posted almost two months too early. It would rival the spaghetti harvest and the islands of San Serif.

I remythat, definitely tonight’s bedtime reading!

Remember!

That thread was amazing. I’m on the CAD Facebook page, they do a lot of stuff like posting a photo of something bizarre that no one has ever said is evidence of dinosaurs, a light bulb for example, and say things like ‘big paleo’ (because that’s a thing apparently) claim this is evidence of dinosaurs’

They wouldn’t be a fan of my phone case

I have dinosaur stickers all over the back of my phone

I remember that thread. It was hilarious.

So well have some remainers refusing to accept the new 50p that marks Brexshit and some Christians refusing the 50p with dinosaurs on it. ^wonders if I can start a disposal service for all unwanted 50ps* 🤔 💴 💴 💴 💴 🥳

I thought that the dinosaur coin was the Brexit coin...

DGS, 2.5, recently repeated the the word "dinosaur" about 30 times in 3 minutes. Nothing else, just that one word. I fear he's completely lost to sin.
