Well, appealing to incredulity isn't going to get you anywhere.
Try looking at the evidence.
Here's a good place to start:

So answer this - do you believe like MacArthur and Hamn that Noah put Dino on the ark? They also believe the UNIVERSE is 6,000 years old. Do you think the universe is about 7,500 years old?
The earth and the universe are both 7500 years old. Was that not clear in my previous post?
As far as I can tell, yes, dinosaurs were on the Ark.
Also, Ken's last name is "Ham" not "Hamn".
And after you have read Walt brown investigate the RATE Project. For
A summary Google American Scientific Affiliation analysis of the RATE project.
The Bible says "for in six days He made the heavens and the earth" and "from the beginning of the creation He made man."
"Millions/billions of years" just doesn't fit.
The Bible gives genealogies that give us dates for when certain things happen, going back all the way to Adam. Adam was created on Day 6, not day 6 billion. (Jesus' words specifically: "But from the beginning of the creation, God ‘made them male and female.’")
Yes, that is what the Bible says.

Yes, that is my understanding of it.
Quite possibly. Humans have developed dating methods that cannot be irrefutably verified to be accurate.
Those two people do not matter. What matters is what the Bible says. And it says all the air breathing kinds went on board the ark. No need to take a full grown sauropod, called a dragon in mythology, and Behemoth and Levianthan in scripture. As for dating, there is carbon in diamonds. Making it impossible for them to be millions of years old. on an extreme fringe it could only be 80k with the half life.
