Here is something else interesting from www.drdino.com
The number of fossils in certain areas of the world is enormous. How could earth have supported all those creatures at the same time?
Answer:
This question shows a common false assumption that many people make. They assume the earth today is the same as it has always been. Today's earth is 70% under water. There are scriptural and scientific indications that the pre-flood world had greater air pressure, higher percentages of oxygen and carbon dioxide, much more land (above sea level), less water (on the earth's surface), and a canopy of water to filter out the harmful effects of the sun. This would cause there to be many times more plants and animals on the earth than there are today. The added air pressure would diffuse more gasses into the water and support a much greater fish population. Aquatic plant life per cubic mile would multiply also. II Peter 3 tells us that the scoffers in the last days will be willingly ignorant of how God created the heavens and the earth. They would also be ignorant of the flood. These two great events must be considered before making any statements about the conditions on earth today. Only about 3% of the earth today is habitable for man. The rest is under water, ice, deserts, mountains, etc. If the earth before the flood were for example, 70% habitable, it could have supported a huge population. "O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! Then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea." - Isaiah 48:18.
The vast amount and world-wide distribution of fossils shows the flood was global and that God hates sin enough to judge the entire world. See videos #2 and #6 of our Seminar Series for much more on this topic.

Why do creationists fight against science?
Answer:
Your question has me confused. All major branches of science were started by creationists. There has never been one advancement in any field of science that the evolution theory has helped. The evolution theory is useless. I don't know of any creationists who fights against science. I certainly love science and taught it for 15 years. Most creationists that I know love science and only fight against evolution. You may be confusing the evolution theory with science. Some think the two go together. This is a common mistake due to the intense evolution propaganda campaign of the last 50 years. It would help if you watch my videotape #4 for more on this. There has never been any evidence that any kind of plant or animal has ever been able to create itself or produce any other kind of plant or animal. We have seen thousands of changes within the created kinds but that is not evolution. Please don't accuse me of being against science. I am only against the false teaching of evolution as science.
Don't all scientists believe in evolution?
www.answersingenesis.com has a great list of scientists, past and present, who believe in creation.
And:
How do you explain the formation of fine strata layers called varves, such as those in the Green River formation in Wyoming, which contains 20 million fine layers which represent 1 year each? Doesnt this prove the earth is more than 6,000 years old?
Answer:
Like many questions posed by evolutionists, one has a built-in faulty assumption. This question assumes that each of these layers is annual, and this is, obviously, not the case. Numerous experiments have been done on the formation. You can take a section of Green River formation and grind it to powder, drop it into moving water and it will resort itself into many fine layers. It has been shown that the layers are not annual at all. There are places in this formation where over 1500 layers are found in some areas and only 1000 in others, all between the same two ash layers called "event horizons." See Creation Magazine June-Aug. 1997. This subject is dealt with in great detail at the Institute for Creation Research (619) 448-0900, or you can contact their web page at www.icr.org.
And:
How are diamonds, oil, fossil fuels and natural gas formed?
Answer:
Coal comes from massive amounts of trees and plant matter that has been changed by tremendous heat and pressure. Oil and natural gas form from fish, reptile, and animal matter under similar heat and pressure conditions. The most logical time for coal, oil and gas to form was during and after the world-wide flood, when enormous amounts of animal and vegetable matter underwent mass burial under the incredible destruction and pressure of the flood waters and the sediments. (See Creation "exnihilo" 12 #2: #30). www.answersingenesis.org for article "How fast can oil form."
Diamonds are highly pressurized, pure carbon gems. (Superman used to make them from coal all the time.) Most diamonds appear in "blue ground," in or near the neck of an extinct volcano where magma erupted. The high pressure of volcanic activity could have formed diamonds. Many may have formed when the "fountains of the deep" were broken up or when mountains arose during the last months of the flood" (Psalm 104:6-8.)
Creation is hardly taught so most people only know of evolution which is always taught.
Creation is not to be underestimated!
