Especially when they draw such conclusions while they ignore their vast mistakes from the not to distant past. Maybe when believers in evolution tell us that such beast have been missing for 65 million years, and then ignore their past mistakes. Maybe they are the real troubled people who can not deal with past reality. Perhaps they should seek out the help they so desperately need. History teaches us that such a reality of missing beast is possible. Believers in evolution must dismiss this reality to keep their fake theories alive.

Are you comparing a Coelacanth to a dinosaur ? Seriously ???? If you are going to go that way Crocodiles are also prehistoric creatures ( a lot older than 12000 years for the record ).
I find it funny that you quote a creature who is believed to have been living over 400 million years ( long before the age of the Dinosaurs) when you believe the earth is 12000 years old. It really does puzzle me.
12000 years ago men had already been painting and engraving the caves of the Dordogne valley for over 20000 years and they were definitely not living with dinosaurs. Mammoths and Sabre toothed tigers yes.
Their stunning art is a perfect record of the fauna of that period.
I have been down most of those caves and been in awe of their beauty and their obvious knowledge of animal physionomy. Trust me if there had been dinosaurs living with them then they woudl have been painting them. Their art is a record for all to see , a journal of their life if you will.
In fact birds can strictly be classed as Dinosaurs too so I guess that proves your point. There are millions of birds in PNG , thus millons of dinosaurs have been spotted there. And in my back garden too.
When you can produce actual evidence of your statements regarding proper Dinosaurs living in Papua New Guinea then I shall be the first to apologise.
I have been to Papua New Guinea. I think the tribes there ( whom I stayed with ) would not only have noticed there were dinosaurs but there would be a hell of a lot of oral history linked to those creatures ( Anthropology is my field so oral history is crucial ).
Saltwater Crocodiles seem to be the reptiles which exercises their minds most because of their lethal nature. Then snakes and lizards of course. Papua New Guineans oral history is incredibly rich , storytelling is a huge past time out there as well as a crucial social tool for recording history.
I am sure there are plenty of "new" species to be found in PNG, some of them reptiles . I suppose it depends what your definition of a dinosaur is. If by dinosaur you mean reptile who has been around for millions of years I suppose you are completely right. Dinosaurs abound in PNG, Africa, South America, Australia etc.... If by Dinosaur you mean what a Paleotonlogist means then .... mmmmm.....
The Papua New Guineans live at one with nature, they know their environment like the back of their hands. I think they would notice a allosaurus wondering around or a pterodactyl flying around however. Let us hope those dinosaurs are herbivores for the people who live in that environment. A carnivorous dinosaur is going to make a lot of damage not only among the local indigenous fauna but indigenous population too...
But I do await your facts with bated breath though. It would be pretty exciting from a biological and paleontological point of view. In a way I would love to be proven wrong.
I suppose there are now creationist expeditions being launched all over PNG to go in search of the elusive creatures ? I would recommend you join , PNG is a stunningly beautiful country and the people are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Dinosaur or no dinosaur.
A Dinosaur is a very specific creature from a biological and physiological point of view.
