    Yuppers. most YECs will typically go with something to the effect of dinosaur bones are very clever divine forgeries. They’ll say god did it for free will, or that satan did it to deceive us (conveniently ignoring that satan works for god…)

    It’s actually a lot like how kids tell a lie (“did you eat the fudge?”… “No”…) to explain what we all see. What anyone with the right equipment could go and observe. but they’re so convinced of the inherent infallibility of some illiterate goatherders that come up with ever increasingly wild explanations for why the science is wrong.
