Hadrosaur Soft Tissues Another Blow to Long-Ages Myth (first T. rex, then another T. rex, now this!)

Hadrosaur Soft Tissues Another Blow to Long-Ages Myth

by Brian Thomas, M.S.*

Recently-discovered dinosaur soft tissues, and even blood cells, represent some of the biggest hurdles for long-age evolutionary belief. Soft tissue was found in the femur of a large Tyrannosaurus rex about a decade ago, and more was discovered in another T. rex a few years later. And recently, soft tissues with proteins were found in a hadrosaur from Montana...

And moreso noteworthyis the point that you pretend to seek the truth yet refuse to investigate further than your evo-supportive propaganda. Anything else is too corrupted by those silly Bible-thumpers, huh?

Right now, I'm tired, and it's bedtime.

It will still be there tomorrow, and if it's corrupted, then thumping a Bible won't fix it.

“Let there be light” was while the Earth was still formless and void.

You invented an interpretation that “let there be light” was a fixed light source that created the appearance of morning and evening, but only hung out for three “yoms” before the Sun came and did the EXACT same thing.

Another Creationist Geo-centrist.

Albert Einstein knew that GRAVITY moved the EARTH around the SUN.

What force do you propose that would move the Sun around the Earth?

Tell me dreamer, where else did the light come from to produce three evenings and mornings on Earth before the creation of the Sun?

You could’ve added Star Wars, a story purposely written as a religious motif.

Your many "testimonials" were meant to convince, no? You're a Jew, he's a Jew... There were Jews in the bible who were reputable, God-fearing folk and there were liars and thieves. There were Jews who wrote the Holy texts and Jews who played others for fools. The problem I have with Evo's is that they draw conclusions... questionable conclusions based on little evidence and conjecture, then dare anyone to differ with them. Something is not so just because you believe it and will it and declare it to be so. Evolution is faith, plain and simple. I dare to differ. You might too. It's good for the soul. Welcome to my world, Evo...

LOL, gilt by association. With Einstein, Hoyle, Born and Ellis. Should I be ashamed?

I merely refuse to rule it out. I’ve spent a little time studying Johannes Kepler, and I find a geocentric cosmology quite elegant, filled with love and harmony. Do I accept it as absolute fact? That remains to be seen. God doesn’t require it of me in order to received the gift of salvation.

As far as Einstein, perhaps you should spend a little more time on the matter. He clearly did, and saw no reason to choose heliocentrism over geocentrism, and termed such decisions philosophical.

Go back, read the quote, read the additional quotes commenting upon Einstein, and take it from there.

As far as a force that would move the Sun around the Earth, well, I suppose dark matter could be thrown in there somewhere. It’s something of a poorly understood “black hole” as far as problems with the current, popular understanding goes, so I’ll give that a try. Dark matter, lol.

“It will still be there tomorrow, and if it’s corrupted, then thumping a Bible won’t fix it.”

You don’t need to read it to draw your conclusion, do you?

Oh... go ahead and dump it now. You know you want to!

It is one of the many mysteries of scripture that do not require the invention of a pseudo Sun or any of the other shenanigans that Creationists regularly engage in to justify their ludicrous cosmology.

To me it is obvious that talking about morning and evening three “yoms” before the Sun was created is poetic, not an insistence upon an exact 24 hours.

The Bible tells us to pay particular attention to the fact that God is not on the same time scale as humanity. Genesis tells of a weeks worth of work for a God of infinite power and capabilities, but who also has infinite patience and forbearance (luckily for us).

I don't know you. But look, I respect you. I do.

But, if you look hard enough, long enough, and with some emotion... you will find what you set out to find.

“You could’ve added Star Wars, a story purposely written as a religious motif.”

I could’ve, but when thinking about the Evo’s I somehow can’t get the picture of Klingon heads and pointy ears out of my mind’s eye.

That and a tricorder shoved into a pocket protector.

I then take the closest pointy object (not a Vulcan ear) and thrust it into my mind’s eye.

I can deal with someone who presents their ideas as ideas and their faith as such. But it’s hard to argue with clones.

OK, I understand what you are saying. Yes, it's hard to argue (meaning have an intelligent conversation) with someone who uses bogus definitions of the terms of the argument.

And what will I find once I look as hard, long, and with as much emotion as you have?

There is no known force that could act upon the Sun while leaving the Earth motionless.

Real forces don't act like that.

Force = mass * acceleration

A force so strong as to accelerate the Sun around the Earth would have a MUCH stronger accelerative effect upon the Earth.

Only a MAGICAL MYSTICAL force could do this; but once you go down that road you left the company of Einstein far behind.

You invented an interpretation that “let there be light” was a fixed light source

... and you've invented an interpretation that has light flitting around somewhere else, while God was creating the Earth? Where was it, allmendream?

Exactly. I love debate even though I’m not the brightest bulb in the box. But most of these guys just come on guns-blazing face to the sun and will not debate. They just expound on their great knowledge.

I’ve tried asking the simple questions but they are never answered. I try to be civil but the kind of arrogance they display just gets on my last nerve, and I soon become what I loathe.

Human nature, I guess. But human nature is what our side is supposed to fight against. Ain’t easy livin’ and breathing in this bag-o’ flesh.
