Argument:
Several locations where dinosaur fossils have been found contain thousands of dinosaurs. These graveyards indicate that a massive flood killed them. This is evidence of Noah's Flood wiping out the dinosaurs
Source: The Answers Book, Chapter 19, and numerous other sources
Response:
Even if they were killed in the same flood event, there is no way to determine that it was Noah's Flood. There were no eyewitnesses there to testify to this
There are many more dinosaur fossils that are found as single specimens (not in a graveyard)
Many of the graveyard animals show signs they were eaten afterwards by scavengers. How did the scavengers survive Noah's Flood?
There are more dinosaur fossils located stratigraphically above (younger) and below (older) these graveyards
