  1. The entire thing is made of resin, plastic plaster and ground up animal bones to give it texture. All of them are. There's never been a single photograph of bones" being pulled from the ground.

  2. Zombiejesusfreaks will call that fake because dinosaurs were temptations to not believe the adam and eve story? Like how long have humans be on the planet. How many days did it take to "make earth" 7 days? LOL How come there were no dinosaurs on the ark?

  3. Aren’t those just plaster casts? They don’t display the real bones.

  4. This belongs in a museum…

  5. Bones are being sold and this country has a crap economy…

  6. Who'd be stupid enough to buy a bag of bones?

  7. That would be perfect in the Foyer right when guests enter the home….
