My! what arrogance. Even poster boy paleontologist Horner disagrees with you, and this fossil was in his back yard, so to speak. Did you ever read the article before citing it, or , like most, just posted a convenient heading. So get with the program - this fossil does NOTHING to prove your point. The problem with this unfounded arrogance is that you use your mythology to explain the evidence, rather then the scientific way of limiting what you are sure of to the evidence. And this link to Nat Geo simply proved that there was a tooth in a tail. The same Nat Geo, by the way that has run a number of frauds as real discoveries - not at all uncommon in the evolutionary world of science - such as the Acheoraptor story, which was a complete fabrication. From the EVIDENCE we know there was contact - between a T Rex and a hadrosaurus. THAT is all we know. Were they in a fight? Was the Hadrosaurus carrion as Horner suggests? We do0 NOT know, and your suggestion this PROVES anything is totally false.

The evolutionary myth makes far too many assumptions - sharp teeth are NOT a sign of a carnivore. Fruit bats and Giant Pandas are NOT carnivores nor are camels, BUT your myth classifies them as such, based on their teeth. This is an erroneous conclusion based on the evolutionary myth.

I have personally photographed T. Rex teeth. Using simple engineering, their teeth would NOT be useful as a carnivore - the ratio of teeth to root is far to small to allow the force needed for T Rex to actually attack another animal that could fight back. YOU are not a carnivore, but your tooth to root ration is about 1:1. The T Rex tooth has a tooth to root ration os about 5:1, making it perilously easy for the tooth to be pulled in battle. And a toothless T Rex is NO predator.

The T Rex teeth look much more like the tines on a mower designed to cut up huge amounts of long grass than deadly fighting tools.

And funny you should forget to mention that these bones from the Montana fields have red blood products, flexible blood vessels and tendons, and discernible DNA. After 64 million years? Now THAT'S scientific! Anything to keep the myth alive! Oh, yes - C14 as well. Did you Really MEAN 64,000,000 YEARS? I didn't think so!

OH, and one more thing - The ONLY people I have ever heard say that God put dinosaurs on earth to test people were evolutionists. As a former evolutionist, I have NEVER met a Creationist who ever said that. Just another strawman argument by the arrogant evolutionists. Does ANYONE believe that? Probably - there is still a flat earth society in America - all evolutionists by the way - but no one with any common sense, understanding of the scriptures (where there are reasonable descriptions of dinosaurs) or basic knowledge of science. And with maybe 100,000 tenured Creationist professors, your comment is certainly the outlier, if it has any truth at all.

Creationist professors. That's funny.

THE largest dinosaur ever found, thought to have weighed as much as

The "titanosaur" is estimated to have weighed 76 tons and would have
been about 40m long and 20m tall — roughly equal to a seven-storey
building when its neck was in the air.

It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater.

Bigger than Argentinosaur ? Yikes. I wonder if they were related. There's a cast of one , here in ATL. It's almost cartoonish in how big it is. T.Rex, Giggy ( Giganotosaurus ) or Spinosaurus, all are dwarfed by these critters.
