Some Christians (a minority) believe that the world is less that 6000 years old and that evolution never took place. Dinosaur fossils present an obvious challenge to this belief. Two strategies are taken by Creationists to deal with this:
1) Deny that dinosaurs ever existed - the fossils were placed there by God to fuck with our heads.
2) Claim that dinosaurs and man lived side by side, and that the fossils are not over 65 million years old as shown by carbon dating, but are only a few thousand years old and that dinosaurs were taken on the ark by Noah.
EDIT: My sincere apologies, but I couldn't help including the image.
