→Dinosaurs as viewed through Creationist Scientists
==Dinosaurs as viewed through Creationist Scientists==
==Dinosaurs as viewed through Creationist Scientists==
Creationist scientists believe that dinosaurs and man coexisted based on a number of pieces of evidence rather than the [[Theory of evolution|evolutionary view]] that dinosaurs existed millions of years ago. <ref>http://www.answersingenesis.org/home/area/faq/dinosaurs.asp</ref>

Creationist scientists reject the "Great Impact Theory" that a meteor struck the earth and caused climatic changes which caused the extinction of dinosaurs and claim there are multiple problems evidentially with this theory. <ref>http://www.answersingenesis.org/home/area/faq/docs/dino_meteor.asp</ref>
Creationists scientists also contend that birds being descendants of dinosaurs goes against present science and also is not scientifically supported with any evidence. <ref>http://www.answersingenesis.org/home/area/re1/chapter4.asp</ref>
Creationists also cite the evolutionist [[Ernst Mayr]] who in 1942 stated the following:
“It must be admitted, however, that it is a considerable strain on one’s credulity to assume that finely balanced systems such as certain sense organs (the eye of vertebrates, or the bird’s feather) could be improved by random mutations." <ref>http://www.creationscience.com/onlinebook/ReferencesandNotes10.html</ref>
In addition, creationists cite the current online World Book Encyclopedia which states:
"No fossil of any such birdlike reptile has yet been found." <ref>http://creationwiki.org/Fossil_record_quotes</ref><ref>http://www.worldbookonline.com/wb/Students?content_spotlight/dinosaurs/creatures_birds</ref>
