I haven’t read one of Brian’s pieces for a while, but I see he’s as deceietful as ever. The soft tissue found is not “meat” in any normal sense of the word; neither is it “fresh.” And I like the way he refers to “a ‘fresh’ fossilized salamander” when the word “fresh” doesn’t appear in his linked reference. Who is he quoting? Himself?
It's muscle tissue.
”We noticed that there had been very little degradation since it was originally fossilised about 18 million years ago, making it the highest quality soft tissue preservation ever documented in the fossil record.”According to the University College Dublin geologists, the muscle tissue is organically preserved in three dimensions, with circulatory vessels infilled with blood.
That seems to be what he means by fresh, as in remarkably well preserved. What do you take his meaning to be - fresh like a package of meat in the supermarket? Your objections don't address the point of the article. You seem to be arguing over semantics. Trying to say creationists are misleading seems to be a longstanding tactic of evos. I find evos to be misleading.
