A question I'm often asked is: If dinosaurs and people lived together, why do we find dinosaur fossils but no human remains in the same layers?
Here are two more possibilities that I thought of that might provide an answer…
5 - Consider that
most of the earth – by far! – is untouched regarding the digging of fossils. Areas where fossils are dug from the ground represent an extremely tiny percentage of the surface of the
planet compared to the places where they are not. Just because human fossils have not been found among the dinosaur bones, does not mean that they don’t exist. It could mean that they just haven’t been discovered yet.
Critics will say the same thing about Noah’s Ark. If it was a true story, then where is the ark, and why can’t it be found?
They assume that since it hasn’t been found that therefore the flood did not happen.
6 - Another scenario could potentially be hinted at by
considering what the Lord says in Luke 17:26-29: “And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days
of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.”
The flood destruction could literally have been total annihilation. It is possible that there was not much, if anything, to fossilize of the people who
lived at that time.
