What Were Dinosaurs For?

Simple answer.
For awhile.

My students like that answer, but they’re all simple.

The question, asked and answered, sat at the head of a lofty lengthy article that I did not have the time nor desire to read primarily because I knew it was all speculation. The only knowledge we have of dinosaur existence is the bones they left behind and we are not even sure if we put them together correctly?

I decided for the sake of adventure to do a dinosaur search however I found nothing current within the last million years. Anything beyond that would be hearsay and we have no way of knowing by who/whom?
We see dinosaurs as bordering on fantasy, when in fact most fantasies have fancied dinosaurs in them.

Therefore, if all we have is speculation. I find that I am more than a little bit proficient to speculate.

Like all living things dinosaurs were put here to populate Earth. They were not rabbits, but did a fairly good job.
Ancient tabloids tell us they were supposed to start the Industrial Revolution, which would lead us to High Technology and beyond, unfortunately they had little hands and little brains and couldn’t even start a fire, except for lightning which forewarned them they could not control a fire.

Something was needed to replace the dinosaurs, so God got rid of them and made people, because we have big brains, (Most of us.)

One good thing came of all that. Without even knowing it, dinosaurs invented oil, which we with the brains stumbled upon while digging for gold, and then made cars to have something to use it for.

Without dinosaurs we would still be riding horses…which is ironic because they who had become extinct, millions of years later caused cowboys to be extinct as well.

Maybe THAT was their purpose?

WOW! What a plan!
