>What’s the difference between a male and female T. rex egg?

Many avians are determined sex by the temperature the egg is allowed to vary, IIRC. But, you’re also completely discounting the hatchling possibility.

>and this whole line of thinking flies in the face of the YEC claim that all the dinosaurs died in the Great Flood.

Why do you say that? And the question itself shows the assumption that dinosaurs weren’t extinct at the time of the Flood.

.....are you saying that T. rex is related to avians? If they brought all the dinosaurs on the Ark, even in the form of eggs......why'd they go extinct and all get deposited as fossils during the Flood? Every explanation just leads to another something to be explained away.

Yes, I discount the hatchling possibility for the flailing it is. I don't see any reasong in Genesis to believe that the animals on the Ark that were hatchlings or eggs just so happened to be the ones that are currently extinct......and why'd they go extinct if there were representatives on the Ark with which to rebuild their population. Some extinction event in known human history that only affected dinosaurs? Just a flail to attempt to claim that dinosaurs were alive 4,351 years ago.

Why do you say that?

....because the notion that the dinosaurs were already extinct at the time of the Flood flies in the face of the YEC notion that the Flood killed all the dinosaurs......which also brings in the notion of the dinosaurs not being on the Ark as they should have been...yet another twist created that must be explained away.

BTW, if you think the dinosaurs were already extinct by the time of the Flood, you are, according to the YEC crowd.....not a "real" Christian. Just ask GGG.

And the question itself shows the assumption that dinosaurs weren’t extinct at the time of the Flood.

Since a male and female dinosaur of EACH kind were not on the Ark....and God said bring 2 of every sort/kind, male and female...not 2 eggs....and Noah did as God said.....then dinosaurs could not have been alive at the time of the Flood or they would have been on the Ark and not have gone extinct in the Flood.

The correct flail would be to claim that all the dinosaurs fall into the "kind" of something that is currently alive....but that's all it is.....a flail to continue believing the fary tale of Man walking the Earth with 100+ species of large meat eating dinosaurs.
