Researchers have described remarkably well-preserved tissue discovered inside a salamander fossil. The fully intact muscle tissues also had blood-filled vessels, and they had not been mineralized like most fossils. This fresh meat find is depicted as the highest quality soft tissue preservation ever documented in the fossil record.[1] But given its assigned age of 18 million years old, it shouldnt be there at all...

Speaking of small minds...
think dessicated/mummified under unusual circumstances.
From the source: 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.
So quit being stupid. It’s not “fresh tissue” its not even tissue - its a fossil.
So you and all your “creation science” fawning fan club can put your “fresh meat” analogies away. A fossil is not meat.
Specific evidence please.
BTW...Are you saying that the soft tissue of the T. Rex and Hadrosaur were also replaced by exogenous organic minerals?
And you merrily follow the talibani creationists right back to the 7th century, and straight to gates of hell...
But, I-75 doesn't run through Tempe, but it does go through Tampa.
As I said, there seems to be a bit of confustion as to what to call these specimins. But “organically preserved” muscle tissue, complete with blood vessels infilled with blood, is not what is traditionally understood as “fossilized.” In fact, these kinds of soft-tissue finds in supposedly “ancient” “fossils” are typically referred to by paleontologists as “fresh meat” finds.
But you are free to bury your head in the sand as many times as you wish. Unfortunately, no matter how many times you pull your head out, the soft-tissue will still be organically preserved soft tissue.
This is a fossil with organic (carbon containing) materials, vs the normal minerals. Same situation occurs when fossils are found in coal.
Why do you and BTMS* continue to lie?
xcamel is back to calling Christians on Free Republic the Taliban again—GGG
Yep, when Christianity is “in power”,
people get their heads cut off,
girls can’t go to school,
women have to walk around in burkas, etc.
Happens every time throughout history....
um... /sarc
xc - stop being a dumbass
Not only do you post crap, you can’t read either.
“As I said, there seems to be a bit of confustion as to what to call these specimins. “
They are called “Fossils”
“But organically preserved muscle tissue, complete with blood vessels infilled with blood, is not what is traditionally understood as fossilized.”
Is that why they still call them “fossils”?
“Unfortunately, no matter how many times you pull your head out, the soft-tissue will still be organically preserved soft tissue.”
They will still be fossils.
GGG - you and your ICR buddies are simply lying about this one. You should drop it before you humiliate yourself further.
This is a complete fabrication or unrestrained stupidity.
Quit pitching me softballs. You are unable to post a credible “creation science” article. Despite your hundreds of posts, not even one is a credible article showing credible science sourced by “creation science”.
No more mulligans for you. Quit lying.
The only person who is lying is the person who is calling Brian Thomas and myself liars. You have provided ZERO proof that the organic material came from anything other than the salamander itself.
PS, you might want to get a chain saw and trim that nose of yours...it seems to be growing longer with every reply.
You and Brian peddling lies again?
From the original paper cited in BTMS’* piece of rubbish....
“Previous examples of SOFT TISSUES FOSSILISED in this way have been limited to samples extracted from amber or inside bone a very rare set of circumstances.”
Stop lying.
xcamel is a child who has no real arguments to make- expect nothign but lies and spurious childish insults from her- Her ignorance about Christians and hte bible come hsining htrough loud and clear- the more she speaks, the more people realize what a child she really is
No lies. You only wish they were lies, because soft-tissue finds in supposedly multi-million year old fossils are becoming a common occurance, and they directly contradict the evo-assumption of deep time. Nice try though.
Lets try a little hard truth for a minute
(using your posting logic)
Fundamentalist Muslims == Creationists
Taliban == Fundamentalist Muslims
Taliban == Creationists
Nobody said you had to like the truth.
