No, for two reasons.
1) The dinosaurs were extinct over 65 million years before man ever walked the earth.
2) The story of Noah's Ark is a fictional story, it's a parable, and not even an original one at that.

Of course not.
These are just hardcore Protestants, I'm religious (Catholic), but I know this isn't true.
They think the Earth was created 6,000 years ago because the Bible talking about God creating everything in 6 "days". But also says that these "days" aren't ment to be taken literally, that it's like 1,000 years to a Earth day. They take that 1,000 years literally, were I believe God just used a big number to help people understand that it was more than just 6 days. And second of all, I take the story of Noah's Ark as figurative. Not everything the Bible says actually happened, some are just stories that have a good moral/meaning it's trying to get across.

Even if they had room for dinosaurs and all the animals in the ark, where was the room for food? What about the animal's waste? And where was food to eat? I certainly don't think they had freezers to keep meat fresh back then. And where was there a source of clean water? The water outside the boat was contaminated with dead bodies.
Scientific evidence has proven the Earth to be billions of years old. That's the story I believe.

Of course not , the dinosaurs had been dead for millions of years before Noah. It's a good thing because there was no way to get two of every animal on earth inside the ark. Who went to the arctic to get Polar Bears??

All of the species currently on the planet couldn't fit on an ark so how could you possibly fit the dino's as well. Exactly how much food was on this boat? Also what about the plant species, because most of them wouldn't survive a prolonged flood so were there mountains of seeds that went uneaten amongst all of the animals on the boat as well. It is a nice story, but completely implausible easily breaking down to any sort of scrutiny.

The Noah's ark story was plagarized from the babylonians. They didn't even think to change the story up signficantly. Try googling on the epic of gilgamesh. This ark story predates the Noah story by over a thousand years.

Maybe Noah forgot to bring Purina Dinosaur Chow. They died on the ark, and we have Noah to thank for their extinction.

Humans and dinosaurs were never on Earth at the same time. They died out 65 million years before any human, presumably including Noah ever existed.

The Bible should not be interpreted literally. Noah's story was more a parable about one man doing the right thing despite his neighbors doing wrong than a historical retelling of a guy who built a giant ship.

Nope. The dinosaurs died out before Noah lived - by about sixty million years.
