For you believers out there, the pre-flood vapor canopy theory explains this nicely. 1. A vapor canopy with more than twelve inches of precipitable water would raise the temperature of the earth above boiling (Morton 1979). A vapor canopy of only four inches of water would raise the temperature of the earth to 144 degrees F. It is worth noting that several prominent creationists agree with this conclusion, yet their close colleagues continue to teach that there was a vapor canopy (Morton 2000).
2. A vapor canopy capable of producing the global flood would have increased earth's atmospheric pressure from 15 PSI to 970 PSI.

Dinosaurs had multiple hearts to overcome gravity. Their brains were contained in more than one location so you might say that like the Apple III they performed distributed processing.
Now you know where the term dinosaur operating system comes from.

“it still needed some degree of circulation “
Maybe it had auxiliary pumping stations in it’s suburban areas?

Imagine a nest of these hatching and the mother dino faced with a dozen beaks open at once: “Feed me! Now!”

How could dinosaurs exist 87,993,352 years before the earth was created?The Lord himself planted all that fossil evidence there to test our faith. Get with the program. Jeez.

I don't know why you're saying it's "new" and been "discovered". It's always been there, and the guys from the GEICO commercial could probably tell you its name if you bothered to ask them, but, no, you probably think that they were too dumb to beat off the dinosaurs while they were, I don't know, founding civilization as we know it . . .

That was exactly the answer a coworker gave me one time when I brought up the fossil record in a discussion on science versus creationism. He was totally convinced that Earth was only 6000 years old.

yes it’s so amazing there are people on FR who take their religion seriously. If you go to daily kos or DU you won’t find too many people who do.

The only Christians that believe that crap do not know anything about Bible Scripture. The Bible does not teach that, they just heard it from some other Christian and took it to be true. I’m a Christian and know that the earth is millions of years old.

yes its so amazing there are people on FR who take their religion seriously.I'm all for taking religion seriously, but I'm not in favor of placing dogmatic (mis)interpretation of scripture in direct opposition to, well, reality.
If you read scripture that you believe says the sky is green and the grass is blue, you have three options. First, you can abandon your faith. Second, you can question your interpretation of the scripture, given the obvious facts. Third, you can believe that the grass is indeed blue and the sky is indeed green regardless of what your own eyes tell you. I chose the second of those options. Clearly, others chose the third.

The Patagonian dinosaur was uncovered on the banks of Lake Barreales in the Argentine province of Neuquen and according with the scientists the giant herbivore walked the Earth some 88 million years ago, during the late Cretaceous period.

""I'm pretty certain it's a new species," agreed Peter Mackovicky..." That's funny, but I'm pretty certain that it's an old species. Ba dump bump!

"Maybe it had auxiliary pumping stations in its suburban areas?" All I know is that when considering the biology of a 105 ft. herbivore, one would do well to steer clear of the major outlets during rush hour!
