Second plot hole: The first humans on earth where Adam and Eve. Both white, yes? Then where come black people from?

It doesn't say anywhere in the bible that Adam and Eve were white. That's just western superiority. There are some religious theories regarding the racial spread in the world, though most are fairly unlikely. They mostly involve the flood and the tower of Babel. One questionable interpretation (used to justify slavery and still used by white-supremists) is that Noah's son Ham was punished for lewd behaviour so that all his descendants were black.
So, really, I don't have any answers there. Just know that you're not going to convert any believers with the race point.
In terms of dinosaurs: some people say that the world was created 'fully formed' - meaning that the dinosaurs, ice ages and carbon dating was set in by creation. Some people say that God used evolution as a tool and that the six days of creation are meant figuratively for the six ages of the universe (big bang, forming of stars and planets, etc). My personal favourite interpretation is based on the Kabbalah story that the world has been created and destroyed six times - each time God set the world 'tasks' but the world did not fulfill them. So we're currently in the seventh and final incarnation of the world. And you can see that in the past billion or so years there have been six major extinctions that wiped almost all the life off the planet.
I'm not trying to convert anyone here, I just find it interesting.
