If man never came up with the writing word and we as a people were left to answer some of life's questions by ourselves with no "GOD" answers and we made decisions on our own (which in this day and age isn't possible), what would be the most popular answer to this question:
Scientists have been finding bones of reptiles and other beings for years, so we know that dinosaurs truly existed. What we have yet to find is a human skeleton that comes from around the same eras, so that would tell us that humans probably didn't exist at the time of dinosaurs , so EXCLUDING the creation theory, what would be the most promising answer to this question: If "GOD" didn't put us here, who did?

The jury is not out on that. We keep getting revisions on just how old 'man' is. You have probably noticed.
But that's not my main point in responding to your question. Have you ever heard of the "Gap Theory of Genesis 1:1 - 1:2" ? If not, then I would say that it is typically not held as a valid theory by most Christians. But I think that there is a basis for truth in it.
If that Gap theory is true, then the Earth can be as old as anyone else says.

I suppose if science had a good answer as to how life originated, we would have heard it by now. (And no, evolution doesn't have anything to say about the origin, which is why creationism and evolutionism aren't even rival theories if one stops to think about it.)

I am sure the scientist would jump and say........'WE DID'!
Have they ever thought that they cannot find human skeleton for that era cause they were being cremated ?

If man never came up with the written word, there would be no science as we know it.
I suppose I know what you're asking; but you may as well just ask why creationists don't accept scientific dating methods.

I'd gladly collect all the religious books up and get them recycled for something more useful, like toilet paper.
They are starting to tear down churches near me too, which is a positive sign of things ahead!

Why is it too abstract to think we just happened. No matter how small the probability, given infinite time and abundant space anything is bound to happen.
