They were overused by cavemen as cars, cranes, telephones, etc. and eventually just wore out.

They never existed (have you ever seen one?). Fossils are just random accumulations of accretions.

can you make a guess please?
it seems everybody can interpret most any sentence from the bible to come up with explanations, oh wait.......................wasn't in the bible.

No I haven't seen one, which is why I asked, but apparently many Christians believe they existed and many children played alongside them as if they were kin.
Accumulations of accretions: It's hard to believe that claim because the same species of dinosaur's have been found many times over in different parts of the earth. The chance of accretion would be in the zillions.

I never read that in the Bible.
But there here so it must have happened.
Dinosuars co-existing with dinos is not biblical at all, very true.
The fact is that many 'christians' believe the world is only what 10,000 years old... and that's a load I agree. The problem comes in the fact that they literally interpret the creation as a 7 day process for one. I won't go into detail about that since its not the focus of your thread.
Also an interesting note is that in ancient Jewish literature they catologued things different. Let's say my name is Bob, my son is Larry, and his son is Tom. I was important to the Jewish community, so was Tom... Larry was just an ordinary bloke.
So a Jewish lineage writing would have said Bob begot Tom... in fact Bob really begot Larry who begot Tom.. but Larry wasn't worth mentioning since he did nothing of major notice.. that's another way that the 10,000 year thing was developed... the problem with most Christians is they must take everything around them for 100% without further researching the matter.

Ok soooooooo, you're putting it out there, that ever skeletal fossil, of every dinosaur that was ever discovered, was formed by chance somehow? :foot::foot::foot::foot::foot:

Raptors are birds.
I saw that show. I think it was called The Flintstones.

Just as alligators, crocodiles, and turtles are also considered to be of the Dinosaurs. At least they were when I was in school. But then again, Pluto was still a planet.
The crocodilians and turtles are reptiles, and they predate dinosaurs.
People started equating raptors with dinosaurs after a movie came out in which the characters refered to a group of velociraptors (and the beasts depicted were clearly not velociraptor, by the way) as " 'raptors"
Real raptors are birds of prey.
