Also, I note that the scientists hypothesists are stating as fact T-Rex walked and stalked precisely 68 million years ago.

Precisely 68 million years ago? As in not one second before or after? I'm not sure I get your point. Tyrannsoaurs were common throughout the late Cretaceous, so they would have "walked and stalked" 68 million years ago.

Without replicability, it's hypothesis.

Without missing links, it's dubious.

With Piltdown Man, it was fraud.

The fossil record has yet to be proven. While some scientific techniques are used among the many types of specimen analysis and data extrapolation techniques used by researchers--(many of them honest and nonfraudulent)--stating hypothesis-testing-allegedly-in-progress as scientific facts that happen to verify one's personal theology or atheism is nonetheless serving as priest-advocate, not scientist.
