I have not read any of the posts other than the OP.
Many Biblical scholars believe....and there is scientific evidence to support their beliefs...that dinosaurs roamed the earth during the time of Adam to Noah....especially from the time of Adam to when he and ever were removed from the Garden. Remember that Before their ousting, ALL of God's creatures lived in harmony. And the flood would explain the extinction of the dinosaurs.
Just fyi...carbon dating is very faulty. When Mt. St. Helens finally settled, they did some digging and found 'fossils' embedded in the volcanic ash and cooled lava that when carbon dated, was supposedly centuries old...and yet, it wasn't even one decade. So yeah...so much for the earth being Billions of years old. But...you know how that enemy likes to work to bring doubt and confusion, right?
