The controversial discovery of 68 million-year-old soft tissue from the bones of a Tyrannosaurus rex finally has a physical explanation. According to newly published research, iron in the dinosaur's body preserved the tissue before it could decay.
The research, headed by Mary Schweitzer, a molecular paleontologist at North Carolina State University, explains how proteins — and possibly even DNA — can survive for millennia. Schweitzer and her colleagues first raised this question in 2005, when they found the seemingly impossible: soft tissue preserved inside the leg of an adolescent T. rex unearthed in Montana.

By this reasoning, everything Picasso and Escher drew must exist in the real world.
It's not an assumption.

I thought we were descended from the mating of chimpanzees and pigs?
Job 40:15–24 (NKJV)
15 “Look now at the behemoth, which I made along with you;
He eats grass like an ox.
16 See now, his strength is in his hips,
And his power is in his stomach muscles.
17 He moves his tail like a cedar;
The sinews of his thighs are tightly knit.
18 His bones are like beams of bronze,...
“I suspect that those trying to preserve the millions of years conjecture have found human bones and dinosaur bones together and didn’t report it because it goes against their agenda. “
Exactly!
Those people that make there living by digging up bones that they claim came from dinosaurs would lose all there funding if it were known that their hundreds of millions of years ago so called theory were proven wrong.
Therefore, they must hide the fact that humans and dinosaurs lived together a few thousand years ago.
The dinosaur living millions of years ago is nothing but a big scam designed to fund paleontologists and natural history museums as well as to turn our children away from Biblical facts.
“According to newly published research, iron in the dinosaur’s body preserved the tissue before it could decay”
I’m not buying it. The thought is that the iron in the blood creates radicals (highly reactive molecules) that destroy microbes responsible for degradation. The problem is that radicals are non specific and will react with just about any organic molecule. If that is the case they should also have degraded the proteins and other soft tissue. In addition, radicals produce characteristic types of damage to organics and it should be possible to determine if that has taken place.
I smell a troll.
Careful, j_guru... I’ve seen where devout evolutionist apologists like to take this evidence.
Mermaids, unicorns, sea serpents, and everything else on old maps, too.
Potential troll ping.
Sorry, but this post just reeks of someone joining up as a sockpuppet on FR just to post stuff they can later cite as a reason to discredit FR.
Pterodactyl sightings:

Do you think all these people who have actually seen pterodactyls are making it all up?
That theory is so yesterday

Land of the Lost was not a documentary.
Negative. That Univ Georgia professor claims pigs and apes mated to produce humanity.
Others aren't buying it either, at least not yet. In typical popular science headline writing fashion, "mystery explained at last" is way overstating the case. More like, "possible explanation proposed, some evidence offered, awaiting further experimental confirmation."
