That is what I objected to,
I already conceded this point.

FWIW, this was much more so directed at starvingprickenglishteacher, who has blatantly misrepresented, insulted, and mocked me throughout this thread.

Yes I pointed this out several times. Really the dinosaurs are bundled into it not mentioning evolution as far as I'm concerned, as they are a huge piece of evolutionary history.

Well "natural history" as far as the Bible is concerned is the creation of everything by God, and it does include that much. Whereas I know evolution is evident, and if a God existed he must have used evolution as his tool in creating life, I think it should have been included in a "creation" account. I don't expect a textbook on biology, paleontology, and natural history, but the mere mention of evolution and perhaps the dinosaurs wouldn't be out of place in an account of creation.
