How come some Christians don't believe in dinosaurs?

I know some people who dont believe in dinosaurs because they say Adam and Eve came first. Why? How can you deny their existence? How do you explain the fossils and footprints?

Update:

I said some. I know not all Christian think this! But if theres anyone who does...... I seriously am really curious as to how they explain fossils. I don't want to be rude, I just want to understand.

Update 2:

Sorry. My fault on the Adam and Eve came first. More like because nobody mentioned dinosaurs in the creating of the earth in the bible.

    Some dont, which is like looking at a chicken bone and saying there is no such thing as chickens. alternatively, they say the chicken bones were placed there by Satan to make you think chicken exists.

    They haven't read the Bible. Man was not the first animal on the planet according to the creation story. Fossils and footprints are not in conflict with the context of the story given in Genesis. How come some people think they are?

    Most Christians don't deny dinosaurs existed. What are you talking about? The Bible mentions dinosaurs all up and through the Bible!!

    Most Christians believe in dinosaurs. The book of Job mentions animals that could be dinosaurs. Leviathan and Behemoth

    Anyone who says Adam and Eve came first has never even read Genesis 1, so I don't see how they can even be accused of being Christian!

    Dinos are never mentioned in the bible ergo some Christians do not believe .

    I do believe in dinosaurs. But they were killed by the flood during Noah's time.

    Actually it's only the total loopy christians who don't believe in evolution. Most religious people are OK with it.
