PENSACOLA - The hand-painted sign outside the parking lot promised a
Darwin-free dinosaur encounter: ``Where Dinosaurs and the Bible
meet!''

Inside Dinosaur Adventure Land, a creationist theme park that sits
behind a string of car dealerships on a busy commercial strip in
Pensacola, a group of 50 home-schooled children romped in the muggy
afternoon heat.

Inside Dinosaur Adventure Land, a creationist theme park that sits
behind a string of car dealerships on a busy commercial strip in
Pensacola, a group of 50 home-schooled children romped in the muggy
afternoon heat.

Some played on the Long Neck Liftasaurus swing seat, while others dug
for fossils or tossed water balloons at a T-Rex and stegosaurus
zip-lined down the Pterodactyl Glide while learning ``the truth about
dinosaurs.''

''Dinosaurs were big lizards who lived with Adam and Eve,'' park
founder Kent Hovind told children and their parents during a
presentation on dinosaurs and the book of Genesis.

Hovind, an evangelist and former earth-science teacher, launched the
amusement park in 2001 to promote young earth creationism -- the
belief that God created the Earth and all of its inhabitants in six
days 6,000 years ago. Most scientists estimate that the Earth is about
4.5 billion years old.

''The goal is to start thousands of these,'' he said.
