If there is no such thing as evolution how does a wolf become a dog?
There is not enough water on the earth to completely flood the world, even if you melt all the ice caps. There is nothing inaccurate about carbon dating except that it doesn't jib with fundamentalist doctrine, so it must be attacked.
The writings of a primitive ignorant people from over 2000 years ago, that was passed down orally for thousands of years before that is taken as truth, while the science of geology, geography and archeology are blown off as inaccurate by so called modern people just amazes me. The first clue is, the world is NOT flat. The moon orbits the earth. The earth orbits the sun. It's part of a solar system. The stars are so far away that the light we see from them took millions and billions of our years to reach us. Primitive societies, such as the writers of the bible didn't understand this. It seems even today certain people don't understand this.
My argument is not whether there is a creator or not. It's that there is physical fact that science can show and prove. And one of those facts is that dinosaurs were long dead before man ever came along. Noah's ark is a myth based on a single occurrence in a small area of the planet. Nothing more than that.
