Dragons
Hi not-a-real-archaeologist,
​
which is why some myths have flying, fire breathing dragons, not that there were such a creature but that the stories got embellished so the warrior looked braver.
​
Yeah, I agree. Fire-breathing dragons? Ridiculous.
​
And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
Revelation 16:13
​
Everyone knows that dragons breathe frog-devils.
​
You are aware that the Old Testament mentions dragons quite a bit, right? Are you saying that the OT has been "embellished"?

Re: Dragons
Hi pretend-archaeologist,
​
insults gets you no reply except this note.
​
Where did I insult you? I can assure you, should I choose to insult you, it will be rather more obvious than that.
​
Is it because I called you out on your pretence of being an archaeologist? Because you're fooling no-one with that. You are no archaeologist. Care to dispute that? If so, please provide us with a summary of your professional qualifications and some details of your recent work.
​
That aside, I am still keen to hear your reasoning on why you should be so keen to ridicule stories of dragons, when the Bible itself talks of dragons. If you want to answer it that is. If you prefer, you could always keep on dodging the question.
