The Age of Dinosaurs
About 230 million years ago, a group of animals called dinosaurs ruled the earth. They lived in many different habitats, from open plains to forests to the edges of swamps, lakes, and oceans.
About 65 million years ago, it is believed that a huge meteor hit the earth, causing enormous clouds of dust to block the sun's rays so that the earth became dark and cold for a number of years. Huge tidal waves flooded low-lying land and acid rain fell. Small animals could find shelter and enough warmth and food, but the huge dinosaurs could not. They died out. They were the most successful land animals, having existed for about 160 million years.

I see where you are coming from "brother" and also to you "Link S". I am a Bible believer and what I have studied in the past years about creation and the dinosaurs is that yes there were dinosaurs living in conjunction with man. According to the Bible Moses lived to be 900+ years old as well as most people living in those times. So, if man lived that long and science has proved that reptiles grow till they die then I wonder how big these reptiles got (alligators ect.). Also, according to the Bible there was a flood that cut life span down dramatically hence no big reptiles walking around now. Too keep it short….
