Dinosaur, meaning giant lizard, refers to many races of creatures that were finished off by the KT impact 65 million and 2 years ago. (I learned the 65 million years bit two years ago!) The KT represents the boundaries between the Cretaceous and Tertiary periods of earth's history. The human race was created much later than this, so all them films are wrong. The definition of dinosaur would actually make it possible for there still to be some around today. I suppose, at a stretch, you could even call the humble tortoise a dinosaur, a crocodile, an alligator etc. So, technically, there still are some alive today. However, all the giant leaf eating beasts so immortalized by Hollywood were already dying out well before the KT asteroid impact hit New Mexico, I think it was, 65 million years ago. The Gulf of Mexico is where the asteroid hit earth. I think the dinosaurs were simply eating themselves into oblivion; as it has been suggested the human race is about to do.

God begans with the heavens and earth created, the earth is not in any condition to be inhabited, Gen.1:1,2, so when will it be? No age or time is given, heaven, earth, space, universe, angels, Job 38: 4-7,30-32; angels see, Gen.1:3-25, the earth is being prepared for some thing, that something was Gen.1:26, man Adam, he was there in God's day six, after him the bible supports 6130 years to the 1000 year reign of Christ Jesus, all the dead are made alive, for a new heavens and a new earth, but not all get eternal life in the new heavens and new earth, Gen.2: 1-4, Heb.4:1-12; when God's day 7 ends, all of God's days are one day, so if God's day seven is 7000 years then time 7 is 49,000 added to all time before that that no one knows what it is.

10 000 years ago dinosaurs did exist though not in the same sense that we perceive them today. Evolution has sought to the changes as did man change so did the animal kingdom. Aligators and crocs are typical examples of the species - there are countless others in the lizards territory to be found today.

Yes... The birds.
Birds are direct decedents of dinosaurs. Not related etc etc... but direct decedents.
The dinosaurs never ever became completely extinct. That's a fact.
Crocodiles and Alligators were never dinosaurs... different species altogether.

Not even slightly. In fact, dinosaurs died out LONG before man evolved, and humans had already been around for quite a while 10,000 years ago.

Nope. They've been gone for about 65 million years. That was the last dinosaur; they existed for millions of years before that.
Add: Here's a bit of debunking of the creationist theories above, especially about finding fresh dinosaur blood:

No, the scene 10, 000 years ago was mammalian, and reptilian, as well as avian.
If you consider the avians as being their predecessors, then yes, they did exist, avians being descents of dinosaurs.

No the majority died out some 65 million years ago with the only survivors being the birds and some marine species,but that is over simplifying it
