First of all, no need to get feisty.
Second of all, welcome to AF! 
I assume you got this phone used and it was factory reset without the prior owner removing his/her google account?
@Dannydet 's answer is correct aside from knowing the gmail account and password for the device, there is no way to bypass the FRP.

No bypass. Basically, you either input the correct Gmail credentials or go to the official Samsung store and hope they got the factory tool that flashes software onto the devices. Some Samsung stores may ask for your proof of original purchase for this service.
The S7 is below 3 years old, which means that it is still being patched, so any instructions you find on the net that is older than 2 weeks most likely won't work because Samsung launches the monthly security patch around 2nd or 3rd week of the month, and those patches all known exploits up to that point.
