Dumbest things you ever heard someone say about dinosaurs

[Deathadder]

Just like the title says just put them hear. I'll start.

1. My science teacher was saying evolution is BS and dinosaurs never exsistes and all the fossils are fake.
2. My friend who claimed he was a "genius" about dinosaurs said t.rex was 24 feet long and 2 tons.
3. T.rex beats every other theropod rather easily because of its bite.

Their closest relatives are snakes and lizards. Since those are covered in scales and not feathers, why should we assume that they had feathers? Come to think of it, why should they even be related to birds? Their skull and skeletal design more matches reptiles than chickens! They don't even have hollow bones.

Moved it because the Members Cafe is not suited for that kind of thread.

On topic:

Creation science asserts that the biblical account, that dinosaurs were created on day six of creation[5] approximately 6,000 years ago, along with other land animals, and therefore co-existed with humans, thus debunking the Theory of Evolution and the beliefs of evolutionary scientists about the age and creation of the earth.
Creation science posits that dinosaurs lived in harmony with other animals, (probably including in the Garden of Eden) eating only plants[6]; that pairs of each dinosaur kind were taken onto Noah's Ark during the Great Flood and were preserved from drowning[7]; that many of the fossilized dinosaur bones originated during the mass killing of the Flood[8]; and that possibly some descendants of those dinosaurs taken aboard the Ark are still around today.[9] At least 300 distinct genera of dinosaur have been identified.[10]
Archaeological, fossil, and documentary evidence supports the logical conclusion that dinosaurs co-existed with mankind until at least relatively recent times.
Because the term only came into use in the 19th century, the Bible does not use the word "dinosaur." However, there are numerous references throughout the biblical account. For example, the behemoth in Job and the leviathan in Isaiah are clearly references to dinosaurs,[11] [12] although others have claimed that Behemoth and Leviathan are references to a hippopotamus or elephant and a crocodile respectively. However, the Biblical descriptions do not fit those creatures, note that hippopotamuses and elephants do not have a "tail like a cedar". Furthermore, even if the terms did refer to other animals, this does not necessarily invalidate the existence of dinosaurs. The Creation account was not intended as a comprehensive list of all animals God created - it does not for instance state explicitly that He created the ferret. However, Genesis does state that God created all animals, which would include any not mentioned by name.

The term creation science alone is funny enough.

It seems that creationist always want proof of evolution when it's odvious that it's true. While they just claim bull crap and automatically say it's right with little or no proof. Just cause it's mentioned in the bible doesn't mean it's true by there logic many animals shouldn't exist because they aren't mentioned in the bible. And if dinosaurs survived the flood as they said, where are they then?

[creature386]

Many creationists believe that non-avian dinosaurs are still alive today in places that are difficult to access for humans and their "proof" are eyewitnesses from for example indigenous people in rain forests.

Bruhathkayosaurus was an actual dinosaur supposedly larger than even Amphicoelias.

[Infinity Blade]

- Stegosaurus was carnivorous.
- Carcharodontosaurus had a minimum bite force of ~8 pounds.
- Tyrannosaurus was poorly adapted to kill things similar in size to it.
- Dinosaurs lived ~6k years ago and lived with humans, etc.
- Dinosaurs never existed (possibly worst of all IMO).

[creature386]

Tyrannosaurus was herbivorous (Conservapedia implies this).

[allosaurusatrox]

The closest relative of tyrannosaurus is the chicken.

Parasaurolophus - A hadrosaur or duck-billed dinosaur well-known for the tubelike crest on the back of its head that connects all the way to its nose. Creationists think the crest housed glands like the bombardier beetle and thus it was used for breathing fire, when in reality it is for resonating sounds (it has a non-flameproof channel connecting to the lungs).

Lol, I remember that whole "parasaurs had toxic snot" stuff a while back.

"They're not real."

[dinosauria101]

By far the dumbest thing about dinosaurs I have ever heard was that Mamenchisaurus sinocanadorum would lose to T rex in a fight

[dinosauria101]

Another facepalm-worthy phrase (actually multiple) is what goes on in Carnivora's Carcharodontosaurus and Giganotosaurus vs T rex threads. Very monotonous, bland, and boring.
It's essentially 'T rex wins this 60-70 percent of the time due to having a deadlier bite, being more robust, etc, etc.'
Really, at parity, it's 50/50. Any size advantage to either should let it win.

BTW I'm starting to find those monotonous discussions downright infuriating
