Fresh Salamander Tissue Found in Solid Rock
ICR News ^ | December 11, 2009 | Brian Thomas, M.S.

Posted on 12/11/2009 8:38:32 AM PST by GodGunsGuts

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 shouldn’t be there at all...

I have converted fresh meat into fossil-like material on my grill before. Perhaps I should have buried it in the backyard for a period of time to restore it’s freshness.

Maybe. I have dogs, so it wouldn't be there when I got back.

Yes we are, and here you are, pointing to His Word and saying it is not true. Good witness.

The 'debate' you want is for any evolution supporter to tell you that you are correct.

No data will support the evolution view that you will accept, and the parsing of articles by you and ICR is one that we object to.

When that is pointed out, you and others just redifine the debate to our faith and religion and use THAT to measure our conservatism.

What they is true is in relation to the Bible. Parse your words somewhere else.

Please don;t put words in my mouth. I didn’t say it wasn’t true. we just have differing points of view of the mechanism.

Why should you care, GGG? He shows himself a total idiot in resorting to such ridiculous (and totally irrational) tactics. Let him shoot himself in the foot....

Blah blah blah.

Give it up camel.

Tarbaby. Term used to describe a figure constructed of tar by Brer Fox, in an Uncle Remus Fable.

Hey evryone, take a look at xcamel!!! A grindingly painful example of the failure of the modern educational system.

Mechanism? It says how He did it. He created the animals to reproduce ‘after their own kind’ not to reproduce ‘into different kinds’.

You the race baitor, and your far-left ‘Wiki’ can exit at any time that you feel artificially offended, and I’m sure that there’ll be no significant objection.

Words mean things, even if you don’t know them. You have proven yourself to be a tarbaby, by the most accepted definition.

The freepathons have lasted longer since Nancy Pelosi shut down the economy in early 2007 by promising a tax increase.

“And aren’t we supposed to be WITNESSES in Christ instead of defining who and what is religious?”

Read 1Corinthians.

“What they is true is in relation to the Bible. “

No lie is ever true. Why do you hold the holy bible in such disdain as to assert that it is strengthened by a lie?

No argument here that “fresh meat” is a bit of a stretch as a descriptive term.

However, the phrase “sulphur-rich organic residue” indicates an incomplete mineralization of the soft tissues. Even the “composition of the fossil blood is unknown”. The article in link #12 further states that the musculature is “at least primarily, the diagenetically altered remains of the original organic tissues”.

If the sulphurization of the tissue is such a slow process in this particular environment, how does the structure of the organic material remain intact for so long?

Roughly how many more millions of years should it take for the organic material to become completely mineralized?

Stop lying!

They use the term fossilized to mean preserved in this case. You have not read the original article in its entirety, or you would not make such stupid comments.
