If 65 Million People join, God will bring back the dinosaurs!

I can appreciate a little irreverence on occasion and the outrageous statement this group makes with its name gets to me. Firstly, are there even sixty-five million users on Facebook? (Sorry, I'm not up to date on the exact numbers). Secondly, can Facebook even support a group with that many users? Thirdly, will God listen to the dictates of a Facebook petition? One wonders. On the other hand, this past week a friend and I were speculating what fun and mayhem could result were one of our favorite bands to inflict their uniquely black humor to a number of non-humorous songs. We posted a thread on their group, and they replied that they were indeed thinking along those lines. One never knows. Back to the dinosaurs, though. On the discussion board, you will find threads such as 'Which dinosaur would you get as a pet?', 'Interesting information, facts you'd like to share about dinosaurs!', 'why extinction, where did they go?' and 'What if?' The gallery includes various cartoons poking fun and dinosaurs and extinctions and also more than a few featuring well-known religious images 'saurified'.

What's great about this group: The title pokes fun at all sorts of things, including Facebook groups.

A word of caution: Some images in the gallery may give offence to deeply religious people.

There are several Facebook Groups with similar names, but they are all tiny, with less than 30 members.
