The latest evidence comes from a molecular analysis of what look to be bone cells, or osteocytes, from T. rex and Brachylophosaurus canadensis. The researchers isolated the possible osteocytes and subjected them to several tests. When they exposed the cell-like structures to an antibody that targets a protein called PHEX found only in bird osteocytes* (birds are descended from dinosaurs), the structures reacted, as would be expected of dinosaur osteocytes. And when the team subjected the supposed dinosaur cells to other antibodies that target DNA, the antibodies bound to material in small, specific regions inside the apparent cell membrane. So, Young Earth Evolution it is.
LOL.
Actually, the only thing that the article hints at is a scientific proof for evolution.

Funny how the promoters of ignorance ignored that part.

I’m amazed that any kind of organic matter (of living origin) can survive 70 million years. I wonder, has radioisotopic dating been done on the samples?

I think you have me confused with someone who believes in young Earth Creationism. I don’t. I am not a Christian and I think anyone who believes the Earth is only thousands of years old is a fool. I believe in evolution because the evidence for it is overwhelming. In fact I have given up on even arguing with creationists. You can’t argue with faith. The only proper thing to do is not deal with irrational people unless they try to force you to accept their irrational beliefs. However if they come onto science threads with their nonsense then they should be ridiculed.
