So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
1. Doesn't take the Garden of Hesperides out of the picture.
2. DraconicChronicler had a theory about Dragons being Angels, in which case the Cherubim's flaming sword would come out of their mouth (now, where else have I heard that?
)
My personal theory on the Dragons is merely that they were/are highly intelligent reptiles with the capability to fly and breathe fire. No magic involved.
If they aren't extinct, they'll have to inhabit a large area that either has no humans, or primitive humans (hunter-gatherers), because an advanced civilisation (ancient greek level) would have been disovered by now, and along witht hem, so would dragons.
There could be clonable dragons frozen in the ice... dino fossils have been diocovered in Antartica.
