But when you go back in the fossil record, you DO see that humans did NOT live at the same time as Dinosaur.Which is what creationists forcefully assert, the 6000 year theory.Evolution doesn't claim to have all the answers.But Creationism does.All you have to do is suspend disbelief indefinitely. So...even if you don't believe in evolution, you have to admit Science does exist.And science teaches us critical thinking.It teaches us if a theory does not hold up to scrutiny, discard it. Creationism does not hold up to scrutiny.

if one were to use the fossil records and go back in time they would see walking fish then as we see them today, if fish walked walk millions of years ago and they can walk today then it's a species (not transitional)
a good example of this is the Coelacanth fish which was said to be a transitional fish species having limbs, walked... etc. they lived 416 to 359.2 million years ago, until, they found the same exact fish today living having not evolved at all.
