After creating the world, he waits 3+ billion years and creates dinosaurs. Why? To spread the word to them? Then he waits another 65 million and creates people.
I'm not saying it's impossible, but...
Doesn't that seem absurdly random and arbitrary to anyone?

God created everything & everthing was good. So dinosaurs were created good.
The meat eating didn't happen till death happened. That happened after the fall of the first Adam. Then things lived nearly 1000 years. So kept growing bigger & bigger & bigger. Then when they died. Something needed to eat them.
Before the death sentence, all creation were vegitarians.
The Lucifer theory is wrong. He was a winged cheribim created beautiful by God. God is Elohim who is creator. Elohim is before creation. Elohim is Father, Word (Logos) & Holy Spirit. We are made in God's image, body, soul & spirit. Spiritual death happens when we rebel against God like the first Adam & to see the Kingdom of God again we must be born again spiritually. Lucifer didn't create anything. He was created. Lucifer fell and isn't a morning star anymore but a terror.

Not really! Forget your billions and millions of years. God created dinosaurs because He is a God of infinite variety and likes to create different things. They were the crown of God's animal kingdom. After Satan, God's most beautiful angel before he sinned, they were probably the most magnificent creatures that God created. I think He made them to confound the mind of man. That's just my opinion. It was not millions of years, perhaps thousands of years ago that they roamed the earth. It appears most of them died in the flood of Noah's day. It is not known whether or not there were any on Noah's ark. There are thousands of bone fossils that prove they were on earth before/during the flood. Man has been on this earth perhaps only some 10,000 years. Also, although it was created "...in the beginning..." the earth, inhabited as we know it, has been around not too much longer. Take or leave it!

There is no conclusive evidence that time is measured by man and God in exactly the same way. Who determined the dating method for the dinosaur? Who developed the theory of evolution? Who determined the chronology of man? All theories presented by man; and therefore, subject to error. God is never random, absurdly or otherwise... man, however, is.

Maybe God is juggling between worlds and he was just busy for a few million/billion years?
Maybe he wanted to give men and boys something to awe over?
Or maybe you're right. It's absurdly random. It can't possibly be the work of an all-knowing being.

There is a theory that before that fall of Lucifer, he was given the task of putting life on Earth, and he put the dinosaurs here.

WTF? God and dinosaur questions are getting pretty popular around here.
He created the dinosaurs so that when they died they would create oil so that wars could be started in the middle east, and his son, GW Bush would bring forth a plague of lies and half truths that would signal the beginning of a war to end all wars.
Yawn... sorry, the question was??

Absurdly random and arbitrary sounds like a good definition of the christian god to me...

People who believe in the story of creation as literal do not even give your argument a thought. They are operating on faith, while you are operating on reason. Those things do not necessarily mesh...give it up. You don't believe, others do...ok, move on.

It does. But then again, the universe contains a great deal of mysteries.
