To be fair, if dinosaur deniers really are on par with flat earthers, then there very well may be a "whole group" of them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_Ea

Religious people tend to cluster geographically/socially too, so the formation of actual "groups" would not surprise me.
- droithomme 15y agoYeah, although the FES itself (265 members according to the reference you cited) is not serious, it's more of a counter-cultural movement of people in on the joke. I meant instead to refer to people who really do believe the earth is flat, and suggest that those and dino skeptics are similarly sized populations. I wouldn't be surprised if there were 265 true dinosaur skeptics globally since it takes all kinds. Interestingly, many people in many primitive cultures won't be among the skeptics since many tribal people have either seen dinosaurs or know those who have. (Mokele Mbembe)
