I don't see why a person can't accept scientific ideas and have faith in Gods word too.
If there's a God then surely he gave us free will so we could question things and not just accept what anyone tells us , be it scientists or the bible itself. If we didnt have enquiring minds then we'd still be living in caves.
If you have faith in God then you should have faith in what He tells you and what he may decide NOT to tell you. Maybe dinosaurs were part of his getting the earth ready for humans , maybe for whatever reason he didnt mention dinosaurs in the bible on purpose .Maybe we need to learn things for ourselves.
Does it matter that they weren't known about or talked about in the bible? Does that prove that God doesnt exist? No..all it proves is that they weren't mentioned in the bible thats all.
I don't think belief in scientific ideas and faith in God are mutually exclusive.
