A dinosaur bone buried for 80 million years has yielded a mix of proteins and microstructures resembling cells. The finding is important because it should resolve doubts about a previous report that also claimed to have extracted dino tissue from fossils...

This article proves you wrong.. You keep saying the Earth is 6000 years old.
I don’t see any ‘young’ evidence in this article.
I’m not talking about their belief in darwood’s materialist creation myth, I’m talking about the data. The DATA is much more supportive of Young Earth Creation.
OK - it's Friday & I'm ready to be entertained.
How is this evidence?
Yes. “More” evidence...........................................lol!
No matter how they try to spin it, finding blood and soft tissue in two dinos (and counting) is far more supportive of YEC than old earth, uniformitarian evolution.
I’m saying the article proved you wrong....
OK, I’m game.. how...
How so?
They have found blood and soft tissue in two dinos now. One supposedly dating back 65 mya, the other dating back 80 mya. This is what one would expect of biblical creation is true, whereas this is the last thing one would expect if deep-time evolution is true.
More interesting would be the explanation of how such proteins and cell structures endured intact over the past 80 million years.
Because finding blood and soft tissue is exactly what you would expect if YEC is true, whereas it is the last thing you would expect if dino went extinct tens of millions of years ago.
See multiple replies above.
The article doesn't say those structures where intact, it doesn't give any indication of the level of decomposition of those structures. It is easy to figure out though how they may have survived. What causes decomposition? Exposure to air, microbes, light, etc. Absent those things, decomposition may stop or slow down. It is not an unknown scenario.
