Scientists have unearthed the skeleton of a previously unknown, massive dinosaur species that may be the largest land animal ever found.
The specimen named Dreadnoughtus schrani is exceptionally complete, with about 70 percent of its bones recovered. Scientists believe the creature, which lived about 77 million years ago, measured 85 feet (26 meters) long and weighed about 65 tons, heavier than a Boeing 737.

The only important fact here is that you don't know enough real science to even discuss the subject.
So your posing as a "science heretic" is nonsense -- you haven't learned enough actual science to see the difference between fact & fiction.
So I have pointed out one place you can look to begin your education, and yet you utterly refuse to go there.
Instead, you just want to whine & complain about your hurt feeeeeeeeeeeelings, that no body considers your mental mal-functions even worthy of reasoned argument.
Too bad, grow up, FRiend.
Crack a book, learn something.
Still haven't quite figured out where you are, eh professor?
This isn't the annual symposium of the American Paleontological Society, or the faculty lounge of East Anglia University. It's Free Republic - an internet forum where like-minded conservatives get together to discuss topics of all colors, shapes, and sizes.
There are as many experts here as amateurs - on any given topic you care to name. Mostly, our resident experts and those with advanced educations in various subjects, tend to be helpful and informative when it comes to their area of expertise.
I'm afraid you've failed that test with flying colors.
In fact, I'm beginning to doubt that you have the slightest idea about anything concerning sauropod dinosaurs. You know -- the actual topic of this discussion? So far, you haven't even offered an opinion, much less an explanation or an answer to the question at hand. All you've done here is throw text books at others and accuse them of being uneducated lazy asses.
Well, enough then. I and others here have given you plenty of chances to simply engage in this informal conversation and provide us with some actual scientific data, but you'd rather play internet info snob. Fine. Your loss.
Nah, ya just aren't paying attention now, Windflier said he is a science heretic, I said I enjoyed anomalies.
Just correcting your pompous eliteness a bit.
Ya still haven't offered any arguments to prove your points, starting to doubt you read the damn books yourself.
Lots of Algore "The science is settled" about you.
Now about removing that stick jammed up your butt...............LOL!!
No, you have posted manifest rubbish in the name of "scientific heresy" and I have merely pointed you towards scientific reality.
The fact that you utterly refuse to go there is your problem, pal, not mine.
I will "debate" your ideas when you demonstrate some actual understandings of the subject.
My understandings are 100% adequate for every word you've posted so far.
Windflier: "Ya still haven't offered any arguments to prove your points, starting to doubt you read the damn books yourself."
But I haven't made any "points", only pointed out the fact that you have no idea what you're talking about, and utterly refuse to learn anything!
My mistake: Cajun, not Windflier, posted this comment.
Well hell sport, there goes your "My understandings are 100% adequate for every word you've posted so far." statement.
That's really a shame, you were doing really, really so wonderful < /S >.
I also see that you didn't get a chance to remove that stick jammed up your butt, LOLOL!!!
Y'all have a good day now, bye-bye.
I and others here simply asked a question.
Instead of just sharing what knowledge you (allegedly) have on the subject, and thereby contributing something of value to the conversation, you decided to take the tack of a stuck-up, arrogant, elitist, pinched-nose, insulting, faux academician.
You had the opportunity to initiate an interesting and educational exchange about this topic, but no. You'd rather slap people around from the assumed vantage point of some imagined ivory tower.
Piss on that, pal. You're not my better. Not by a long shot.
Now take a freaking hike and get off my channel.
For someone who doesn’t like the conversation, you sure do ping me a lot.
You folks would rather spend time in jail, wouldn’t you, than read a real science book on a subject you are so so so eager to mock and criticize science about?
That’s my only point here, and I’ll be delighted when you prove me wrong.
Then we will have a real conversation, FRiends.

Not sure you meant that for me. I pinged you to my replies because your handle was on the earlier traffic.
Won't bother you again.
