Perhaps the dinosaurs were all wicked, and so they weren't allowed on the Ark, like the Unicorn? I think the thing that surprises me is the belief that if you don't believe in a very precise bit of dogma, you are going to hell.
Whether Christ is the Son of God, whether you should love your neighbour - these are optional, but you'd better not think that the world was created any date except 4004 BC. I haven't checked, but I suspect that the Pope, The Archbishop of Canterbury, and the Supreme Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland (a fine body of religious men, I am sure) are all going to hell on this account.
