Make more succinct; reinstate reference to dino fossils

[[Flood Geology|Flood geologists]] reject the [[uniformitarian]] assumptions behind the dates derived by secular geologists, so reject these dates (see [[geologic system]]).
[[Young Earth Creationism|Young earth creationist]] scientist state that there are numerous lines of evidence pointing to a young earth and that the old earth [[paradigm]] is errant and has many [[anomaly|anomalies]] (for details please see: [[Geologic system]] and [[Young Earth Creationism]]).
Instead, they would consider most if not all Jurassic strata to be laid during [[Great Flood|Noah's Flood]].
Many sediments containing [[dinosaur]] fossils are assigned to the Jurassic, which evolutionists believe to be the the peak time of the dinosaurs.
