Line 14: − − == Different Perspectives == − − Ever since the discovery of dinosaur fossils, there has been debate about whether and how dinosaurs fit into the history of life on Earth. − − There was a time when some Christians believed that fossils were planted by God to test our faith. In line with this, some Christians, even to this day, believe that dinosaurs never existed. However, no informed creationists today believes this. All viewpoints accept that dinosaurs existed. Young-Earth creationists, however, reject the [[uniformitarian]] time-scale, and therefore believe that humans and dinosaurs co-existed. Creationists also reject the now-popular idea that dinosaurs evolved into birds. − − ----
