I know no one considers creationism of any kind as scientific, but some people don't believe that evolutionists have it right. Carbon dating isn't a totally reliable source to tell us how old the earth is, considering sometimes it can be off by a few million years. The further back in time you go, the less reliable carbon dating is, and carbon dating is the main source that scientists use to say that the earth is millions of years old. Also, layers in places like the Grand Canyon can show millions of years like the rings of a tree. However, a very large layer of ash that could have been interpreted as millions of years all came from one week (Mt. St. Helen's eruption). Science isn't always reliable, and I have many more reasons to be skeptic about evolution of the universe and earth. I don't think God has ever gotten any thing wrong. If you were God then I would pay more attention to you, but since you don't know everything that God knows, I have no reason to believe that you know everything about the earth including how old it is, how it was created and how men and dinosaurs ever came to be. You weren't there when the earth was created, and neither were the rest of us. Evolution is one of many theories that are only extremely intelligent guesses and nothing more. I'm not saying that I'm entirely right about what I believe either, but I'm not going to blindly believe that we came through the evolution process.

LMAO at the responses of the religious believers. Because you know that 65 million years is just like a drop in the bucket for God. Granted he supposedly can miracle anything instantly and is perfect, but it took him 65 million years to get something right. Wouldn't you think that the all powerful being could just snap his fingers and have it all done instantly, and since he is perfect, then why start out with dinosaurs and then have to destroy them? And also why kill them out using a meteor, he could have just snapped his fingers and unmade them, why all the pain and suffering he caused with their demise? What did that accomplish?
But then some religious person will state it is all part of God's plan and we do not know what that is. But they certainly walk around interpreting other things that God supposedly likes or dislikes. I think it is the talking out of both sides of their mouths that I like the most. Great question.
Peter L. - you really need to get to know more about science and the newest tools that are being used for dating of artifacts. Try opening your mind and not closing it like you have. But then you believe in a book that states that the earth is 6,000 years old and that is all, which that book could only be truly believed by a child less than 5 years of age.

There are many scientists who answer your question better than I or most users of this service could, and they show the utter absurdity of evolution, eg:
HOW did non-life become life?
HOW, when amino-acids, the basic building blocks for life, are approx 50-50 "left-hand-right-hand", even in the most favourable lab conditions, form life? Life at the molecular level is totally "left-handed", and that is why they bind together. the 50-50 mix means they tear themselves apart, thus stopping life before it could even start.
HOW does "random, chance mutations over millions of years" lead from molecule to man? All mutations observed have featured either recombination of genes from parent organism(s) or to a REDUCTION of biodiversity -- the opposite of that required by evolution.
WHY are people so unwilling to check out what scientists, not Von Daniken types, are saying about the age the earth?
Look at:
www.answersingenesis.org
www.christiananswers.net
for more info regarding these things. Evolutionists require more faith than I do. I know, I was one before I read The Genesis Flood, by Whitcomb and Morris.
For Christians who resorted to slinging abuse at the questioner: remember we are called to be as gentle as doves. The questioner is at least asking a relevant and pertinent question. Rebuke is fine, but name-calling is just not on.

What evidence do you have to suggest such a thing. Science is flawed in certain aspects, scientists themselves admitt groos mistakes in their theories.
If you are refering to carbon dating techniques that measure time and age, this also as been proven to be flawed.
All creature like dinosaurs and other organisims like those were destroyed in the great flood. Science has proved this to-Large bodies of water caused destruction.

The comet idea is a big bag of ****.
The dinosaurs are actually ancestors of todays lizards and snakes. They didn't die just like that,but evolved in order to become more adopted to the surounding enviorment -to me the most logical theory.
As for the bible reference the world didn't exist for only 6000 years ,it existed about 7 million years (7 days of creation = 7 mil) but the human race has existed for 6000 years
Hope this clarifies things a bit ?

All things that God did was nothing more than preparing the way for His great creation(Mankind) why God made Dinosaurs first and then us is something of a mystery,but God does nothing without a sensible and intelligent reason,so there had to have been a reason for this, there are somethings that even science cannot answer.

Gee, if all those speices vanished how did EVOLTUTION manage to work.
What NATURE did it twice, but doesn't do it anymore.
Now you go think about that one. How many years from the primordial muck did it take for Dinos. How many years after Dinos without primordial muck did it take to RE-POPULATE the Earth with 98% of all living things gone.
Go on. Explain it concretely and with science BACKING YOU UP and no leaps of faith or gaps.

Nothing God does is an accident. He had a reason for waiting. He also had a reason for getting rid of the dinosaurs. What would life be like with dinosaurs roaming the world now? The Bible says his ways are not our ways.

1 Proverbs 6: 12 A scoundrel and villain, who goes about with a corrupt mouth,
13 who winks with his eye, signals with his feet and motions with his fingers,
14 who plots evil with deceit in his heart-- he always stirs up dissension.
15 Therefore disaster will overtake him in an instant; he will suddenly be destroyed--without remedy.
16 There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers.

I don't do rhetorical normally but I'll make an exception this time. If there is a cleaver god / gods why did he / she/ it create such a faulty being as mankind.
