Jewess, there really isn’t a conflict between the possibility of evolution and Judaism. There was a thread a while back that discussed it, but I think it veered off into a lot of attacks.
I personally do not believe that dinosaur bones are anything other than a dinosaur. There are too many of the same skeletal patterns that have been found IMHO to be that. But, there is no problem with dinosaurs having existed. They could have only existed during creation. They could have been remnants of a past world. Or they could have just been bones that Hashem put in the world. I’m tempted to beleive one of the first two though…
I found learning the Ramban in Bereishis very interesting – it kind of shows how what the ancient people called the four elements (earth air fire and water) kind of was how Hashem created the world. We’ll never understand nature entirely, but it sure is interesting to learn!
Onlyemes, I don’t think anyone denies micro-evolution. But macro-evolution is a bit different.
