Old Earth Creationism (OEC)
Evolutionary Creationism (EC)
- Evolutionary creationists accept the belief of mainstream science that dinosaurs have lived on Earth since approximately 240 million years ago, but that the only dinosaurs that have survived the Cretacious-Tertiary extinction 66 million years ago are birds.
- They do not believe that non-avian dinosaurs have ever been contemporary with humans, or that Noah took young dinosaurs or fertile dinosaur eggs on the Ark.
