"Here are some facts about Dragons:

1) Not all Dragons were large terrifying creatures, some were quite small.
2) Not all Dragons had wings or could fly. Many dragons were wingless creatures.

3) Not all Dragons could emit fire, as shown in today’s paintings of them.

4) Dragons were Not mythical creatures. But rather real animals with a strong foundation in reality."

The theory is patently ridiculous, so it's no wonder you believe it to be sound.


The entire premise is based upon the references to dragons found only in the Bible.


Problem: There are no references to "dragons" (or dinosaur like creatures) in fiction, mythology or literature which predates the Bible.


What there is however are references to many great, mythical beasts and demons. If the "logic" of this theory were at all sound, we must also start trying to find the fossilized remains of Humbaba, Medusa, Kraken, Chimera, Gorgons and Titans, not to mention the 100s of other fantasy creations of pre-biblical legend.

Based on the references stated on the website it is sound.
