I was just wondering what other people's interpretations were about the Cryptids mentiioned in the Bible?
My favorite is a reference to Mokolo-Mbembe, or at least that is how I see it.
Job 40:15-24
15Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. 16Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. 17He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. 18His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron. 19He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him. 20Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play. 21He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens. 22The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about. 23Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth. 24He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares.
IMO this clearly states that there was some sort of living brontosaur/apotosaur (forgive my ignorace of the proper term. Is it sauropod?) in the time of Job. I am a fan of crytozoology, and think that this is a bible statement in reference to Mokolo-Mbembe, at the very least living at the same time as man.

since when do you guys listen to the bible experts?
i guess only when its convienient. there is no way its a hippo or an elephant. made up possibly, but a hippo or an elephant, yeah right.
are these the same bible experts that say jesus' 1st miracle was turning water into.........grape juice, because they think that drinking wine is bad. pu-leeze, wake up.

thanks for making it a point to be rude about the whole thing because someone disagrees with you, chuck.

I'm guessing his pastor.
ahahahaha, yes keep making assumtions, that will do you good, stereotype me all you want.
The 'tail' description only
i always was under the impresion tail meant tail. to you it means penis, for some unknown reason.
and i am supposed to listen to "bible experts" what kind of vague statment is that. i thought this siite was about having validity? but i'm told why don't you listen to the "bible experts". to me a "bible expert" is a mythological creature. i am told there is evidence against my opinion, yet i don't see any, i am told that MY OPINION is not what the experts say or agree with. this is all a bunch of nonesense.
here i'll turn it back on you guys and let's see how it stands up: you guys are inccorrect there are many bible experts that say so and there is lots of evidence.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
i am sooooo convinced since someone wrote it and it is in text. i have an opinion i was wondering yours? but since all i get in response is rebuttles without one spec of validity i see i am just wasting my time.
this site is one big oxymoron

Re: EVERYBODY
that's fine i see how YOU PEOPLE are im just gonna have fun here and stuff, thinking i could engage in anything worthwhile from a message board shows how naive i am, i guess. peace out
Im sorry i wasted everyone's time who was trying to be cool and type/talk with me about anything, but i have made a mistake. i was trying a new board, and well it sucks here.
someone says something to me that is offensive, and its cool, i defend myself and administrators jump in. i would still like to read and post so i really don't feel like making an exit, but i willprobably just hang in the coffee room, PAZ!
