Paul, can we assume that you do not believe in the 'younger earth' teachings of many evangelicals? They teach that God created everything about 6000BC (based on ages of the Patriarhs) and also that the flood happened around 2300BC. They also believe that dinosaurs used to be 'gentle' plant eating creatures. I would like to know how all those different animals that only existed in other parts of the world, walked and/or swam great distances so they could embark on the ark? And what happened to all the fish when salt water mixed with fresh water?
