According to the Genesis account, animals were created during the fifth and sixth creative periods or 'days.' If the Hebrew expression translated "great sea monsters" [Hebrew, tan‧ni‧nim′] includes dinosaurs, which often inhabited swampy, watery areas, this would mean that dinosaurs were created on the fifth "day." (Gen. 1:21) It is not know whether they continued to exist until man was created (toward the close of the sixth "day").
He didn't. God, if he exists, didn't create any life.
It has been scientifically proven to an undeniable level that dinosaurs evolved from sea creatures, which evolved from jelly-like mass, which evolved from bacteria.
There is no evidence what-so-ever that a celestial being called God exists. Other than a book called "The Bible". If God exists because it says so in a book, then by that logic, Harry Potter and Hogwarts also exist.
As a matter of fact, science believes there is more chance of extraterrestrial life existing than a god.
Dinosaurs came first due to evolution. Simple as that.
There are two creation stories in Genesis. In the first creation story (Genesis 1:1-2:4a), man, both male and female, was the last creation of God. It is more or less possible to read Genesis 'literally', but allowing the Hebrew word for day (Heb: yom, spelled yud-vav-mem) to mean an indefinite period of time, possibly many millions of years. But the word used here for day very definitely means a 24-hour day. So, the first Genesis story is incompatible with the proven existence of dinosaurs millions of years ago.
In the second creation story, beginning in Genesis 2:4a, the first human, Adam, was indeed the first creation, created before the beasts of the earth. There is no doubt that this creation account leaves no scope for dinosaurs to have existed before humans.
A more important problem is that the two creation accounts conflict so obviously on this and many other points. The degree of difference necessarily means that one or both creation accounts can not be true, even without the evidence of science.

Only Evolution demands that dinosaurs existed so long ago. If you believe in Creation, man and dinosaurs existed side-by-side before the Flood.
Yes, sharks existed on Earth before the dinosaurs.
Yes. Worms existed long before dinosaurs did.
Nothing existed before creation because nothing was created. Only God existed.
No, the dinosaurs died out long before mammoths existed.
If you believe in creation, you understand that nothing existed, not even the Nile River, before Creation.
None. The scorpion is an arthropod, and they existed long before the dinosaurs. Scorpions are anthorpods , they did not evolved from dinosaurs. They existed long before dinosaurs evolved. Its believed that scorpions existed in the Carboniferous Period (430 million years ago). Dinosaurs existed from the Triassic Period (230 million years ago) to the Cretaceous Period (65 million years ago).
Before dinosaurs existed, all of life could be found in the sea. There was absolutely no hint of life on land. There were giant sea scorpions, orthocones, etc.
There was absolutely no life on land before the dinosaurs. Every living creature was in the sea before dinosaurs roamed the Earth.
the mammoth did not exist first before the the dinosaurs, in fact it existed after the dinosaurs extinction.
No - Nothing existed before 'Biblical Times' except God.
No, because all dinosaurs except birds went extinct millions of years before humans existed.
yes. they existed before the creation of fixed societies.
