What the Dinosaur (V)
Created | Updated Nov 6, 2019
Millions of years ago the dinosaurs ruled the Earth. Since their discovery by Sir Richard Owen in 18421, palaeontologists have long suspected that dinosaurs had far more fun than we humans do. This might be what led Dr Beeching, working late at the dinosaur museum in Sandown, Isle of Wight, to inadvertently resurrect a carnivourous Neovenator. This fearsome, unstoppable behemoth is endangering our very sanity by strolling along the beach.
Was the Isle of Wight the epicentre of the dinosaurs' civilisation? What theological beliefs, if any, did the dinosaurs hold? If reptilian in origin and/or possibly cold-blooded, would their concept of purgatory be of extreme cold rather than heat? What is the Neovenator's position on antidisestablishmentarianism? And did those claws in ancient times walk upon the Isle of Wight's sands of green2? Sing praises unto our reptilian overlords and prey3 that, in Their mercy, they will allow us all to read next week's sacred scripture, What the Dinosaur!| What the Dinosaur |
