At 85 feet long and weighing 65 tons, Dreadnoughtus sets a new record as the land animal with the greatest calculable weight.

The titanosaur's skeleton, which dates back 77 million years, was discovered in Southern Patagonia in Argentina, and unearthed over the course of four digs between 2005 and 2009.

Question to the young earth people - how do you figure this animal lived only a few thousand years ago.

Now why would you ruin an interesting find/article like that by immediately antagonising people setting this up for a religion war?

Jeepers, that's a huge beeech.

Shouldn't this be in the Science section?

Fail. Was excited, then saw that bit and now not.

Yes.

Because it suits his agenda. But agreed it's stupid to ruin something interesting with antagonistic comments/baiting.

Because I'm attempting to understand how young earthers can still believe what they do in spite of evidence to the contrary.

Why would anyone get antagonised by a question ?

I use the wrong word. I should have asked "why are you baiting people".

But moving on

You don't think it's a valid question?

We can have over a hundred posts about Jesus being gay, but young earthers find this antagonising - come on.

Instead of whining, try answer the question.

I don't think there really is anyone on this forum that firmly believes the earth is +-6000 years old.
Those kinds mostly live in the US, from the South.

Unless I'm wrong and there really are people here that dumb.

I've asked a christian that believes the earth is a few thousand years old. He said that carbon dating was BS and he doesn't believe in most scientific discoveries.

I was B L O W N away.

Not that your question isn't valid, but it would have been preferable if your post was solely the article, because it is pretty interesting on its own.

Anyway, a render or two of the Dreadnoughtus schrani:

It was created, then died. Now we found it again.

The question is as valid as the other 950 questions posed to young-earth creationists in the past. If they're willing to overlook all the current evidence, what's to gain from adding one more question to the list? SSDD.
