Hey, sorry if this is an existing topic already, but I was just wondering if someone could explain to me the creationism timeline and important dates (explaining the existence of dinosaurs in terms of creationism, etc.).
POST AFTER EDIT:
Looks like I made my first mistake. You're absolutely right, I did assume that the dates I would want to see would be obvious. Thanks for explaining that, and for welcoming me to the forums.
List of Dates on the Creationist Timeline:
-The 'coming into being' of the universe, and if it's convenient, a brief discription of that event.
-The 'birth' of:
-1.The Sun
-2.Earth
-3.The planets closer to the Sun (than Earth)
-4.The planets farther from the Sun
-5.Other stars and an explanation of the existence of galaxies.
Jumping to:
-When in the Biblical timeline dinosaurs were present, and whether the majority Creationism belief is that dinosaurs coexisted with humans or not.
And also, exclusive Biblical dates:
-The creation of the Garden
-The Great Flood, and how long it lasted.

Hi Drew,
Welcome to the forum! Yours is a very basic, and thus very important question. I'm not sure if the question has been addressed here in such a clear, summative fashion. I think it's a worthwhile topic.
What is not clear, however, is what points you're interested in having on the timeline. You assume it's obvious what the points are, but I don't think so at all. What I'd really like you to do is to think a bit and come up with a list of the important points you want placed on a timeline (note that it's likely that some of your points may be "explained away" instead of being placed on a timeline).
After you make a list of these important points, please edit your original post and add them in. I think that would lead to a fruitful discussion.
If other admins have a different idea, please feel free to comment.
And again, welcome to the fray!
