You had 2000 years prior to the flood.

2000 years? Are you saying it only took 2000 years to build up the rock layers we see between fossils?

You show me a dinosaur fossil in the same geological layer as a human fossil and that would go a long way to disproving evolution.

Apart from something like that, I have no more reason to believe your creation story than I have to believe the one about Marduk and Tiamat.

No, many of the layers and fossils are from the flood. But there would have been an era before the flood as well. Then the flood. Then the time since the flood.

The flood itself would have buried things in sort of an order. The deepest dwelling creatures would have been buried first. Followed by progressively higher habitats. Mud slides and turbidites would have occurred occasionally, probably throughout the year long event.

See the section on varves

Geology and the deluge

"You show me a dinosaur fossil in the same geological layer as a human fossil and that would go a long way to disproving evolution. "

I wish I could do that. But there are some evidences, that man walked with dinosarus, but they are all weak and sometimes uncorraborated. They include the mention in the Bible of a creature with a tail like a cedar tree, various culture's mention of dragons (the word dinosaur was unknown), a set of tracks in Turkmenstein (uncollaborated), drawings on Peruvian pottery. And sometimes like the Mexican dinosaur figurines mentioned at the end of the first article, they turn out to be frauds. See the following link.

Where are the human fossils?

Silly. The flood released enormous amounts of concrete mix trapped in the earth's surface layers. That's how the rocks formed so quickly around the fossils and why we don't see naturally occurring concrete deposits now.

Show me a textbook that illustrates where fossils have actually been found as opposed to where the author thinks they fit into a preconceived notion of history and it would do the same thing.
