I personally am not a big fan of Carbon Dating as a reliable source of obtaining the ages of fossils. But geology doesn't use Carbon Dating. They study the layers of strata in the stones to determine the time frame.
And in defense of a 6 day creation, I imagine the Flood would've displaced a lot of soil and put a lot of pressure on those laters of strata. That would account for thousands of years of soil looking like millions.

I will say that this topic has given me perspective. As a Christian and as a believer in science, i walk a balance on these issues that can be difficult. I was getting very frustrated with other peoples answers, thinking "how can they be so blind?" when i realized that im sure that is exactly how many of you feel about my ideas.

DRAGONS AND DINOSAURS IN SCRIPTURE


People are always asking where Dinosaurs and Dragons fit into Gods creation so I decided to not get into it to much, but to just show scripture where it mentions Dinosaurs and Dragons. There is a wonderful website I recommend to further these answers and to find many interesting facts in the bible. Go to your search engine and type in Answers in Genesis.

Job 40:15-18, 23 Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron. Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth.

Job 41 Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? Or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down? None is so fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me? I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion.... Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about. His scales are his pride,
shut up together as with a close seal.

One is so near to another that no air can come between them. They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered.... Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap out. Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron. His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth. In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him.

The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in themselves; they cannot be moved. His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the nether millstone. When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings they purify themselves.

The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the habergeon. He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood. The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble. Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear. Sharp stones are under him: he spreadeth
sharp pointed things upon the mire.

He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment. He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep to be hoary. Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear. He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the children of pride. (Also see: Psalms 74:14, Psalms 104:26, Isaiah 27:1)

Isaiah 27:1 In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the
dragon that is in the sea.

Isaiah 51:9 Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the LORD; awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old. Art thou not it that hath cut Rahab, and wounded the dragon?

Deu 32:33 Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.

Job 30:29 I am a brother to dragons, and a companion to owls.

Psa 44:19 Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.

Psa 74:13 Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters. (Psalms 148:7)

Isaiah 34:13 And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be an habitation of dragons, and a court for owls.

Isaiah 35:7 And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.

Isaiah 43:20 The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.

Jeremiah 9:11 And I will make Jerusalem heaps, and a den of dragons; and I will make the cities of Judah desolate, without an inhabitant.

Jeremiah 10:22 Behold, the noise of the bruit is come, and a great commotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah desolate, and a den of dragons. (Jeremiah 14:6)

Jeremiah 49:33 And Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons, and desolation for ever: there shall no man abide there, nor any son of man dwell in it. (Jeremiah 51:37)

Micah 1:8 Therefore I will wail and howl I will go stripped and naked: I will make a wailing like the dragons, and mourning as the owls.

Malachi 1:3 And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.

We know that dinasours couldn't have existed and died before man because the bible says man brought death into the world. If dinasours existed before man and died off before man, than man didn't bring sin into the world.

that was the catholic church not the body of Christ. the catholic church was a demonic suppression of righteousness for over a 1000 years not the same thing as the church whom the gates of hell would not overcome which has always existed in purity somewhere upon this earth.

A flat disc is also a circle, that's how the church justified their view of a flat earth when others were saying it was round.
