Dinosaur Soft Tissue Finally Makes News

Bogus!!!!....this has been NEWS for awhile...

I saw paleontologist Jack Horner, talk about this on the Discovery channel 6 or so years ago....it was a great find and an unusual lucky find to find 65+ million year old bone and marrow in such good condition...but it is more than possible and no fantasy 6000 year old earth is the cause...

Some bone matrix is just better at preserving than others...

Let's face it, this was a spectacular find that should have been all over the MSM (esp. on the broadcast news), but instead the evos (and their MSM allies) tried to keep a lid on the find while they did their best to discredit it. Unfortunately for them, there have been numerous similar finds since then. And they didn't just find bone matrix, they found blood vessels, blood cells, and various other soft-tissue. If memory serves, they even stank like decaying flesh inside. These soft-tissue finds in animals that were thought by the Temple of Darwin to be between 65-80 mya directly contradict both what is known about the rate of soft-tissue decompostion --and-- the long-age evolutionary timeline.

I remember that too. Horner related an exchange he'd had with a colleague:

“These fossils stink” said the colleague.
“Hell Creek fossils ALWAYS stink” Horner replied.

He went on to explain how stupid he felt for not asking the question “why?”.
