A good friend of mine is Baptist. Here's her idea on the subject of dinosaurs: 
"God created dinosaurs when he created man. But he kept them on one side of the 
earth while he kept Adam and Eve on the other side. Then he killed off all of the 
dinosaurs and hurled their bodies to the other side of the planet, tilting the 
planet on its axis. And that's why the earth revolves around the sun - the impact 
from God's dinosaurs tilted earth into its rotation."
