Is the New Dinosaur Documentary on Netflix Scientific?

Streaming giant Netflix recently released a brand-new documentary miniseries titled The Dinosaurs, featuring lifelike animated dinosaurs and narration from Morgan Freeman. But was the documentary scientific?

Well, AiG paleoartist Joel Leineweber recently filmed a response to The Dinosaurs, examining the artwork and “science” of the series in light of what we find in both the fossil record and the Word of God. I encourage you to watch it.

Unsurprisingly, The Dinosaurs is filled with atheistic evolutionary teaching and a big push to make dinosaurs seem very birdlike (to try to indoctrinate people with the evolutionary belief that dinosaurs evolved into birds). Of course, we’re not surprised—Netflix certainly isn’t trying in any way to push a biblical worldview!

If you’re looking for a streaming platform that does honor God and that views science through the lens of a biblical worldview, I encourage you to check out Answers TV. Our streaming platform features kids’ programs, in-depth college-level series, nature documentaries, science shows, and so much more—including many programs in Spanish and also a number in Arabic. And it’s all designed to point you and your family toward the truth of God’s Word and a more biblical worldview.

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,
