Okay. Here is an example of scientific scholarship typical of Answers in Genesis:

Buddy Davis is nearing the completion of his work on the 40-foot Tyrannosaurus Rex model he is creating for the museum! When you walk into his workshop and come face to face with this beast it inspires frightening memories of movie scenes with people running from the ferocious, apparently starved, giant. However, we know from the Bible that God created all animals, including dinosaurs, to be vegetarians. It was only after sin and the resulting curse were introduced that animals began to eat each other. Before that there would have been no reason to fear a 40’ long, 12’ tall T-Rex!

And people wonder why mainstream science is critical of "creation science." It isn't science, it's theology. This teaching belongs in Sunday school, not science class. That's all this is about.

I love that!

Apparently God created those dinosaurs with large, meat-tearing fangs because he knew that they would give up vegetarianism due to mankind's sins! Never mind that they wouldn't work very well on plants - it wouldn't be long until they weren't eating plants, anyway!

Before that there would have been no reason for a 40’ long, 12’ tall T-Rex to evolve!

Wait a minute! I bet theropods just killed for sport way back then.
