science has proven that the dinosaurs lived millions of years ago and died out about 65 million years ago. You can't argue with carbon dating because it's how we all got here since dating is essential to the survival of us carbon-based life forms.

What a drooling cretin. Carbon dating is only used back to about 60,000 years. Other radioisotopes (like lead/uranium) are used for older dates.

There are a lot of good links dealing radiocarbon dating on my FR homepage.

Into this bucket we must also put the coelecanth and that rodent that was found for sale at the Asian meat market the other day. Both species "died out" 65 million years ago. Science lacks the ability to "prove" this sort of thing, which is why they sometimes get it wrong.

Some evolutionists like to claim that their beliefs have been "proven" but if pushed enough they say that science doesn't really deal with "proof". Which is true. But they like to make good rhetorical use of the word.

Actually, no: Early man courted. And some species reproduce completely asexual. Dating only became popular with the invention of the automobile.
