[jody]

[AnneD]

[Crunchy Frog]

22. Yes...

[Carolab]

12. Remember the photos of the things that washed up after the tsunami?

My God, there are some seriously ugly/scary things in the sea!

http://www.snopes.com/photos/tsunami/creature.asp

NOTE: Although they are genuine images of some rather strange deep-sea creatures, these photographs have nothing to do with the Indian Ocean tsunami. They date from mid-2003 and were taken as part of the NORFANZ voyage, a joint Australian-New Zealand research expedition conducted in May-June 2003 to explore deep sea habitats and biodiversity in the Tasman Sea. These photographs can be viewed on Australia's National Oceans Office web site.

14. Sorry, "intelligent design" doesn't allow for that....

Your "Science" is flawed, only god could have made a creature like that and besides, everyone KNOWS the earth is only 10,000 years old. The Devil PUT those fabricated bones there to trick poor, gullible people like you. You people and your "science". :eyes:
:sarcasm:

[mr_hat]

17. Oh yeah? Look at that grid pattern all over the body

and tell me "evolution" did that. The chances of "evolution" creating a perfect grid pattern are at least 3 Brasilian to 1.

[Yupster]

15. Maybe

he was a planteater? Perhaps his sharp teeth were used for sexual displays?

Hey it could happen.

[mr_hat]

18. Mack the Knife?

[Critters2]

21. That's what I use my sharp teeth for

:evilgrin:

[AnneD]

35. You're assuming it is a he?

How do you know-it could be a she and those teeth could be used to dispatch the male after mating. That scenario is played out in nature with other species.

[sofa king]

20. You can't trick me, God.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

23. hmm...

Compare:

and

[Straight Shooter]

26. LOL!

Good one. :toast:

[muriel_volestrangler]

28. "Godzilla"? Complete tosh.

the fierce-looking animal probably terrorized creatures in the Pacific Ocean in the late Jurassic era, just as the film monster Godzilla frightened the people of Tokyo in the movies

You mean it stamped on them, punched them and breathed fire at them, after they had disturbed its slumber?

It's got bugger all to do with Godzilla. You might as well name it "Hannibal Lecter". Strange that the 'fish-like tail', which is totally uncharacteristic of a crocodile, hasn't been illustrated, while the head - lots of teeth, and not that unusual, has been.

[Orsino]

30. Is is CNN policy to put the word "terror"...

...into as many goddamned headlines as possible when * is speaking on the subject?

Jesus Christ.
