[QUOTE="mikeynov, post: 15107699, member: 82508"] Actually, after briefly reflecting on the issue, I think there's two primary reasons that creationists love their cryptids. 1) A factor of gullibility - if you can be convinced that the earth is 6,000 years old, you can probably be convinced that there's a 7 foot biped chilling in the woods of remote Northwestern America that's gone undetected in modern times, or a big-eyed monster that has a taste for goats. 2) The idea that if such a large creature has managed to go unnoticed in a fairly populated continent like North America, that there could be other 'large' creatures that are still around that could have gone unnoticed. My guess is, primarily, dinosaurs. As such, creationists feel that evidence of these sorts of creatures still being around would be evidence that the earth is young after all.
