There are more questions unanswered than our public schools give indication of.
Yep, because general education is not set up to answer unresolved questions.
There ARE human fossilized prints near dino prints.
No, there aren't. Instead, there is the Paluxy River trackway, which certain creationists have mistakenly or dishonestly claimed are human footprints. This has been debunked for ~75 years, but never let it be said that creationists are willing to let go of preconceived notions.
We are told that oil is basically decayed dino remains and yet oil is found 1000', 2000' 3000' even more below the surface and rarely has a dino fossil been found beyond 20' below the surface.
No, we're not.
Firstly, oil is formed from algae or zooplankton, not dinosaurs (my seven year old nephew is being taught this at the moment).
Secondly, there's nothing in geology that prevents oil being buried under thousands of feet of earth and rock. Then uplifted towards the surface. Or being subducted.
And... if we count Adam's years and go through biblical genealogy, we get roughly 6000 years since Adam. And, since God created with the appearance of age (Adam was a man not a baby, trees were already bearing fruit, etc.) then perhaps... JUST PERHAPS... the Earth is a few billion years old.
There's
very strong evidence, refined after more than 200 years of hypothesizing and checking the facts of reality, that the earth is 4.54 billion years, +/- about 50 million years.
There's very little evidence for the biblical genealogies. For example, the genealogy given for Jesus varies WILDLY between the two accounts given in the bible. If I recall correctly, one account has around 40 to 45 generations, and one has more than 70. In the case of both, there's no evidence that any of the individuals in the first half a dozen generations are anything other than mythical.
And if not... then asking how the dinosaurs died is a valid question. It allows one to escape the scientific "theory" (the asteroid theory is a theory, not a fact) and try to fit God and Scripture into the equation.
The asteroid impact extinction
hypothesis is one that can be scientifically tested for evidence. As opposed to completely ad hoc hypotheses, like creation by magic with embedded age in order to fit a particular creation mythos.
So... the Ark had less animals than most realize. In Hebrew there isn't the sub-species breakdown that we find in modern science. There wouldn't have been 2 of ever kind of cat... there would have been 2 cats. The dinosaurs could have been juveniles for those larger and perhaps..... just perhaps.... they lived for 1000 years or so before they went extinct due to hunting or environmental conditions. I don't know... I am just sharing an idea, a thought... that is honestly, just as valid as the asteroid theory.
Let's see, one side has a story in a book which they claim was inspired by a divine being. The other side has evidence supported by thousands of individual pieces of physical evidence.
That's not even a remote level of equivalence. If there were two competing stories or two competing sets of evidence, THEN you'd have equal validity.
