So your God (I say "your" God 'cos everyone has their own idea of what God is) made the universe and everything in it. Lots of folk say that. But what else did God do and what is he like?
Nice short words and simple questions. When you answer them, we might begin to see what the fuss is about.
I suggest you read Job 40:15 through 42. I speaks of the Behemoth and the Leviathan. I believe that GOD did create the dinosaurs when he was creating animals. But they died out during the flood. Couldn't get in the ark. Of course that statement will probably start up another round of dueling rebuttle. And for whoever said that Cain left the garden, it was his parents that were exiled for sinning against GOD. It wasn't till then that Cain and Abel were born.

Job 40: 19 He ... It seems a bit daft to claim that this refers to dinosaurs. Job 40 says that the beastie existed at the same time as man (the dinosuars did not) and that the beastie "ranks first among the works of God". Since this doesn't mean that it is the most important, it must mean that it came first of all creatures. So what about the pre-dinosaur animals? If we take your interpretation, then the dinosaurs were the first animals created and there were no fish or other reptiles or amoeba before them. I think not.
lol oshkosh - I sometimes wonder if people actually think, really think, about what they are saying?
how many animals do you think were taken aboard the ark? how much evidence for a global flood exists? claiming the dinosaurs were wiped out in Noahs flood needs no round of discussion because it is simply one of the most stupid comments I have ever heard. I would perhaps expect it off someone aged 10 and under, otherwise it indicates you are lacking in the mental faculties required to understand what you are talking about.

20-3-91 - Is that your birthdate?
Anyway, how about it - how would you describe your God and what he has done? Is he the OT God of the Israelites and father of Jesus? Is he the one singular God of Judaism? Is he the triune God of Roman Catholics? Is he all love, is he everything? Did he speak through the prophets like Moses? Did he abandon Jesus on the cross? Is he responsible for earthquakes and volcanoes?
Maybe someone should re-write 2001 (Space Odyssey) so that when the bone cudgel comes back down, the golden arches M appear over a neon-lit cave and a fur-clad caveman says "Do you want fries with that?" and the black monolith should be changed to M wherever it appears. Religion and McDonalds - what a way to measure man's progress! It did not surprise me to hear the claim that the golden arches symbol is more recognisable than the Christian church's crucifix.

"Righteous and kind" is a good start, but it's the "so on and so forth" that I'm interested in. Was he righteous and kind in turfing Adam and Eve out of the garden just because they discovered knowledge - after all, God put the tree there and God made A & E and knew what they would do. It seems like he set them up for a fall and then punished them for it - even we humans don't think that entrapment is righteous and fair unless the victim is deserving of it, and as far as I know, A & E didn't have any previous.
Since we're on the topic of origins, how about the one covering fish?
After Adam and Eve first got together, God asked Adam how it was, and Adam replied it was great. He then asked where Eve was, and Adam said she was down by the stream, washing up.
God then exclaimed, "Awww, I'll never get that smell out of those fish!"
