...Due to the principles of gravity, mass, and the limitations of muscular anatomy in any life form, it would not be possible for any animal weighing more than 20,803 pounds to be able to lift its own weight (Holden, 1994). However, the Brontosaurus is supposed to weigh over 70,000 pounds, and other so-called sauropods are supposed to be many times larger than that.
Then there is the issue of neck size - a long necked animal of that size would not even be able to lift its neck. Additionally, their blood pressure would be way too high to be able to live. Their heart would literally explode. For reference, a giraffe has a long neck, and even at its relatively tiny size in comparison to sauropods, a giraffe is at essentially the peak of blood pressure that is possible to live, having a higher blood pressure than any other animal...

Lots of assumptions, no facts.

Religion is a relative term. Taking what others say as truth without doing your own research is not knowledge, Its belief. Religion has belief as one of its main constructs.
Get back when you figure out how to resurrect yourself from the dead.
The flat Earthers and the creationists are of the same intelligence...dumb and stupid...and nothing in-between.
The creationist get their world view, history, and scientific knowledge from a bunch of old Jewish poems. Show me any Rabbi or Jew who believes in Creationism...they don’t.
Good stuff...they fools need to be called out.
Jesus Christ believed in it.
This book has some interesting theories on exactly that.

To the extent that it ever occurred, yes.
In other words, no.
Alsao, though water can only rise now about 30 feet under atmospheric pressure, how is it that water can get to the leaves of a 100 foot tree?

Trees are pumps.
Cleats?
The obvious logical conclusion is that our planet's gravity was much weaker in the time of the dinosaurs.
That sounds like heresy, but the fact is, these animals once existed. They could not exist in our world today, ergo, their world was fundamentally different from ours, gravitationally.
It says to me that we humans have not yet unlocked all the mysteries of our universe.
Incorrect. God Himself is the Creator of time. In fact it was the first creation: "In the beginning, God created...." You may as easily say, "In the beginning of time, God created ...."
Until Adam there was no time, only the passage of events flowing into each other as a river of existence.
Where in Scripture to you find that concept?
There was day and night and the changing of the seasons occurring in endless repetition. But there was no time.
Incorrect. Time and seasons are linked together in Scripture: "He changes times and seasons; he deposes kings and raises up others. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning." (Daniel 2:21)
God exists outside the limitations of time and space. He is infinite with no beginning and no ending.
Correct.
For God time has no meaning.
Incorrect. See Daniel 2:21 again. Also consider that God created time for man to be accountable for his days on Earth, and for the days of the week as He established them as recounted in the Law: "For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea and all that in them is. (Exodus 20:11)"
When we refer to a day in Gods time we may be referring to a million or a billions years.
But wait... "God's" time, you say? We just agreed that God is outside of time. He is not bound by time (He is the Creator, and not bound by His Creation), but God created time, and on the 4th day of His Creation of the Earth and the Universe, He created stars and planets, and set them in place to mark the passage of time, as a reference for the time interval, "day and night"; He defined on Day 1, a time interval for the passage of night and day apart from being marked by celestial bodies. The importance of this is God defines time for man and His Creation, not the stars, not the Creation, and not man himself.
Not until God created Adam did time exist. Adam began to count his years once he was banished from Eden.
Incorrect as described earlier. As for Adam he marked his years from the day of his Creation, not from the time of his sin and subsequent banishment from the Garden.
FReegards!
Nature has a way to clean up after itself. Millions of animals die each year but walk through the woods and you rarely find a carcass that isn't fresh. Not much can be found even on a roadside kill after a month. Things in nature consume its dead, even the bones. The miracle is that there are any bone fossils at all.
That is true
That’s not the point. He csused the vegetation to keep producing after it’s own kind from the beginning. He created it all by his word, and in His way determined the science by which they’d continue to live and reproduce.
I hold to the younger ages view and believe the majority of the fossil record was laid down after Noah’s Flood.

An interesting question indeed.
The concept of a day, and more specifically time, is relative [1].
A day, in our terms, is 24 hours here on Earth (well, technically, it's 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.0916 seconds) [2]).
For an observer on Mars, a day there is about 25 "Earth" hours. Whereas, on Venus, it's about 5,832 "Earth" hours.[3]
Maybe there is a planet out there that spins even slower...maybe 100,000 "Earth" hours.
A "Day" means many...many different things in our universe depending upon where one is.
