Today on Earth lions and humans live at the same time. But we have learned that lions are dangerous. So we live in different places - but (still) AT THE SAME TIME. Perhaps some of the dragons/dinosaurs were dangerous. It would have made sense then for pre-Flood man to have lived in different places than dragons - but still at the same time.

Really? Only there's quite a bit of cave art depicting lions, not to mention a fair few prehistoric lion bones.

No doubt Kent has a big stash of dragon bones just lying around the cell office to back up his claims then?
No?
We have the fossils. We win.
Humans and lions don't live in different places by any laws of nature, the reaseon why there's no lions in anywhere near humans is because we've been pretty busy exterminating them. In more ancient times, the picture was quite different
Except for all the lack of evidence, and the fact that dinosaurs were as dominant as (if not more than) the mammals of today, except the really big ones included carnivores.
You also fail to remember that people DO live near lions. Lions live in Africa. People live in Africa. There is contact in the wild between the two.
Yeah, now you just have to find evidence for that (and no, for the last time, scripture doesn't count as evidence).
Except that real science extrapolates its theories from the evidence, instead of inventing a huge crock of shit and then trying to find justification for it.
To quote Addison DeWitt from the movie "All About Eve:"
You have a point... An idiotic one, but a point.
One of many things this guy has forgotten is that dinosaur fossils have been found all over the world, including places where human/humanoid fossils have been found. That's just one more thing that screws with his living at same time, different places "theory".
Dragons never existed. Dragons were what people made up to explain the huge fucking bones they unearthed occasionally.
As for your post, paleontology disagrees.
Of course, lions are dangerous, but humans are much more to them than you imagine. Besides, do you know that there were lions in Turkey in the Bronze Age?, and up to XVIII century in Atlas ridge?. Why they're in Africa is because of something called DEMOGRAPHIC PRESSURE of the humans, as they settle.
Actually, the biggest Tyranosaurious Rex squeleton, and the more complete, for that matter, was found in Colorado. The biggest collection of dinosaur fossiles in Europe was found in Teruel(there is even a thematic park, Dinopolis)and La Rioja, in Spain(footsteps, to be more precise). Even if the latter are not much inhabited, what about Colorado?, or were the people then into a kind of masochistic club?
Which explains why the Zulus have lion hunting chants...
"In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight..."
"Perhaps some of the dragons/dinosaurs were dangerous. It would have made sense then for pre-Flood man to have lived in different places than dragons - but still at the same time."
Yes, and the Bible mentions Unicorns too, therefore "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic" is a documentary, and therefore one particular dangerous dragon...:

Hey, you said it, Eddie baby, I didn't! [/Doug Piranha-levels of sarcasm]
"Today on Earth lions and humans live at the same time. But we have learned that lions are dangerous. So we live in different places - but (still) AT THE SAME TIME"
...meanwhile, in the SAME place as humans:

In Soviet Kiev, Christians get in Lions. >:3

Actually, it's much more a case that lions learnt that we are dangerous. In any human/animal conflict, we will win. We are, collectively, smarter, faster, and better armed than any other animal. We are the ultimate predator on this planet.
Homo Sapiens is the single most dangerous animal on the planet; we're the only ones able to destroy all life on Earth. If all bees dies out, we would no longer have fruit and berries. If all humans died out, all other lifeforms would thrive. The only importance we have is a negative importance, sadly...
Btw, dinosaurs died out 65 million year ago, Homo Sapiens split from our closest relatives Pan paniscus and Pan troglodytes some 2 million years ago.
There is VERY few places on Earth that no humans, whatsoever, have ever visited.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
