Scientists
do have more than a foggy idea. You seem to be misinformed (actually, I would say you are UNinformed) :
There are fossil human remains (you get one point for mentioning Lucy) that extend back tens of millions of years. Then they stop. Then going back further to 60 million years, dinosaur fossils appear. Go back 160 million years further, the dinosaur remains stop. This time line is substantiated not simply because a "vast majority believes it" (an error in your logic) but because a vast majority of evidence proves it. If you refute this then you are a blindly loyal creationist, and do not accept logic or reason. You operate on faith.
Now there is nothing wrong with faith (I personally am a follower of Jesus) when it is applied as intended, to one's spiritual well being, but the Bible was never intended to be a Unified Field theory to explain dinosaurs. It was intended as a guidebook to living.

There is no scientific evidence to support this.

Neither can we. Hence our dislike of Creationists.

That example equally applies to you adhering to Creationism and your illogical attempts to discount evolution.
