...what you're talking here is not "science heresy", it's not science period, it's make-believe fantasy.

Not really. We're merely asking a legitimate question --- how could animals so large exist on the surface of a planet with Earth's level of gravity?

Apparently, just asking the question provokes chuckles and accusations of believing in fantasy. Obviously, it's because "the science is settled", so anyone questioning the consensus is either uninformed, uneducated, or unintelligent. That's the sort of rigid, dogmatic mindset, that has allowed the global warming hoax to go on for as long as it has.

I'm not even saying that the answer to that question hasn't been found. What I'm saying is, that, advancement in our understanding of the natural world ceases when the door is slammed shut on inquiry and exploration.

I personally think that's a door that needs to be removed from its hinges and thrown on the junk pile.

Anybody can ask dumb-*ssed questions, and there are tons of questions which no scientist can answer with confidence.
Indeed there are questions which have no scientific answer, and just because you've stumbled on some of those, doesn't make you some kind of genius.

What would, would be careful study of the subject, research into all the relevant scientific literature, independent experiments with published results in peer-reviewed articles.

Never fear, much of this is already done, and is reported in the second book of post #33 above.
That would be a place to begin your education.
