I tuned in late and missed the beginning where they said it was all a make believe show.. that is why i was so confused.[/quote]

I did that once to a dinosaur show on the discover channel and was totally flipping out, they were like keeping dinosaurs in like a zoo of sorts, then they got this little time zapper thingy, and went back in time to get more of them thats when I knew it was fake, but it was so life like, they had really great graphics people i mean it looked as real as like steve erwins shows

Remember all evidence comes from archeological digs, which at best is hit or miss at what has been preserved and what is gone forever. Many species that were around back in the ancient times are now extinct, who’s to say some a couple random species of dinosoars not killed off yet still hid in dark caves, or swam around big lakes like some lonely loch ness. If they were around, every macho man in any village would be trying to figure out how to kill it, so any ones left would’ve been quickly hunted into extinction. Maybe someday we’ll be lucky enouch to find one that fell into a bog, got buried in a volcanic eruption, or deep in sand, but til that time, we can all just wonder…

It’s fairly well accepted that during the biblical flood, dragon’s were excluded by Noah on the grounds of fire safety. The rest is history really, the dragons along with the two unicorns that arrived late, entered the long list of extinct species. Hope I’ve been of help.

There is one dinosaurs that has extreme long neck and I believed people probably unearthed the head and neck part, hence the dragon myth started. They probably mixed the long neck bones with some Tuojianggosaurs head (carnivor similar to Allosaurs, Albertasaurs slightly smaller kind of T-Rex) to make it ‘look’ like the Chinese dragon.

Pterodactyl could be pretty big too and could be the source of dragon myth, the Western Dragon type (with bat wings but bigger).

Who is to say that T-Rex heads weren’t laying about in them days. If I brought you a skull of a dinosaur that would seem like a dragon to most people ~smiles~.

I believe that dragons exist, but not on this particular plane, however the fact they were imagined means they exist on a plane somewhere ~smiles~.

2. something known to exist or to have happened: Space travel is now a fact.
3. a truth known by actual experience or observation; something known to be true: Scientists gather facts about plant growth.
4. something said to be true or supposed to have happened: The facts given by the witness are highly questionable.
5. Law. Often, facts. an actual or alleged event or circumstance, as distinguished from its legal effect or consequence.

Theory- –noun, plural -ries. 1. a coherent group of general propositions used as principles of explanation for a class of phenomena: Einstein’s theory of relativity.
2. a proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural, in contrast to well-established propositions that are regarded as reporting matters of actual fact.
3. Mathematics. a body of principles, theorems, or the like, belonging to one subject: number theory.
4. the branch of a science or art that deals with its principles or methods, as distinguished from its practice: music theory.
5. a particular conception or view of something to be done or of the method of doing it; a system of rules or principles.
6. contemplation or speculation.
7. guess or conjecture.

The fish tale concept is best explained by the phrase, “it was THIS big”. People see something that’s amazing, but they embellish their story over time, and the fish they caught that was, in reality, three feet long, becomes nine feet long when they tell the story. The same applies to other animals, events, and even plants that early explorers in particular told stories about.

For example, how is it that so many ancient civilizations could have stories or artwork of them that are much the same and came about vefore these civilizations even had contact with eachother. And as for cold facts, so many things can be played with in the human brain. Generally people see simply what they seek to see, and deny what’s in front of them if it goes against their thoughts. However, I’m not saying that dragons existed as the highly romanticized beings that people think of today. They were probably, I think, more just animals, without being specifically evil or good or magical. I can’t say that I’m some highly educated pereson that must be right, but I believe very strongly that dragons were at some point real.

Possibly. But the fish tale concept is probably more accurate when combined with ancient superstitions.

It’s not that difficult to separate fact from fiction if you’re sceptical from the start and know where to look.

I don’t believe they existed, and I don’t believe they never existed. I hold it open as a possibility, but until I see proof, I’m not saying yes or no.

And whilst we are on that subject how do we know what to believe as crestfallen pointed out. even the most convincing footage doesn’t necessarily have to be real! Science, Myth Religion it is all based on belief really.

I’m not disagreeing with you, but there’s plenty of current evidence for animals that can combine chemicals to make light. It could have happened…

Either that or a great grand joke started back in the 1600’s all the way to now, involving lots of paper mache and plaster-of-paris.

In the same token, there are some fictional human characters in books who I wouldn’t mind believing in, either. Let’s not cap it at dragons, only.

I don’t know that there is any way to tell for sure, but there are some first hand accounts of some strange creatures if you look at some of the old historical records. Dragons, as we understand them, maybe not. But the accounts might have been of creatures that led to the dragon myths…
