Evolutionists recognize that they were suddenly destroyed all over the earth, and are unable to give a satisfactory reason why. Scientist are puzzled why there is a dividing point in the sedimentary strata, below which are the dinosaurs and above it no dinosaurs. One of the important contemporary scientific debates is about the causes of the mass extinctions at the close of the Cretaceous epoch, about 65 million years ago . . It has been suggested that the dinosaurs were killed by volcanoes, climatic changes, or the eating of their eggs by other animals. Yet other far more delicate wildlife have survived volcanoes, climatic changes, and egg predators.
Evolution has no answer to the extinction of the dinosaurs.
These are some of the theories that have been advanced to explain the sudden extinction of dinosaurs throughout the world. Each theory will explain the death of some dinosaurs in some places, but attempts to apply any of them, or combinations of them, to worldwide extinction have failed. This dinosaur story is like a mystery thriller with the last pages torn out. That is true and the paleontologist knows it. He also knows the riddle will probably never be solved.
