The first living thing could not have come into being by random chance, therefore, God Almighty created all things. Just 1 proof.

So you are saying that they had books with pictures of dinosaurs in 500 BC?
What is your area of expertise? What is your training and profession? What makes you think that you can judge the soundness of science with such poor examples and fraudulent evidence? Your Big List of Empty Claims is not working out too well. Declaring your victory in the face of having done nothing isn't working out too well.

Why should anyone listen to you when you cannot defend what you claim?

Assumption.

The article merely makes the bold empty claim they are 2500 years old.
It does not say how they "know" they are that old
They aren't. Legitimate testing places their creation around 1940.

My apologies.
I was under the impression you were referring to a different article you presented.
Radiocarbon dating wouldn't be the appropriate dating technique for the material and would produce highly inaccurate and unreliable results. Claiming any date produced as legitimate would be farcical.

I’m sorry I put a link to a different article because the first article did not have the dating info. I should have noted that. My apologies.

No it wasn't.
that article does claim it was done.

However:

In 1952, Charles DiPeso (or Di Peso), an archaeologist affiliated with the Amerind Foundation in Arizona, visited Acámbaro, studied Julsrud’s collection, and observed two excavators at work. He concluded that the figurines were indeed fakes: their surfaces displayed no signs of age; no dirt was packed into their crevices; and though some figurines were broken, no pieces were missing and no broken surfaces were worn. Furthermore, the excavation’s stratigraphy clearly showed that the artifacts were placed in a recently dug hole filled with a mixture of the surrounding archaeological layers. DiPeso also learned that a local family had been making and selling these figurines to Julsrud for a peso apiece since 1944, presumably inspired by films shown at Acámbaro’s cinema, locally available comic books and newspapers, and accessible day trips to Mexico City’s Museo Nacional. Even this study, published in American Antiquity, however, failed to convince those who argued that the figurines were genuine.​

It claims a lot of things.

Do you think these are 2500 year old figurines that demonstrate that people and dinosaurs co-existed?
