Extraordinary preservation happens, but the circumstances which permit it are rare, and the discovery of the fossils before their destruction by natural processes even more so.
Well the author said he found it mind boggling and I agreed it was surprising. If the author includes such a response within the article then my agreement with the author is indeed in line with the article. Believe me, I’m not the one that dragged the conversation off topic.
So, is it an accurate understanding to say you too choose to ridicule the science of evolution on the basis of the claim that dinosaur tissue must be substantially less than 65 million years old because the idea of it being so old is too ridiculous and improbable to be credible?
Wrong again. Evolution is a fact so far as I’m concerned; modern genetic science proves it incontrovertibly. Creationists probably believe in leprechauns too.
You wrote in part:
“Well the author said he found it mind boggling and I agreed it was surprising. If the author includes such a response within the article then my agreement with the author is indeed in line with the article.”
What you wrote did not unambiguously differentiate whetheer you agrreed only about being mind boggling or mind boggling and the conclusions promoting Creationism by implying evolution was too improbable to ttake seriously. Now you have clearly stated the difference.
I can easily see how another person would be surprised or even startled by the discovery, but not if they took the trouble to become acquainted with the science of how biological matter is destroyed. My own comment about scientific ignorance was based upon the reasonable expectation that the author of the topic was responsible for making himself acquainted with how dinosaur tissue can be expected to become destroyed and preserved before comenting against it while proclaiming ignorance and due to a lack of understanding so profound as to amount to being mind boggling. The mind boggling is significant only to the extent the author used it as the measure for the author’s evidently deliberate and negligent ignorance. Anyone else can of course be mind boggled or otherwise based upon their own knowledge or ignorance of the subject, but not the author who professes to have reason to use this ignorance as a basis for promoting an agenda in the Creationism versus evolution debate.
I’m sure you’ve heard this before. Please go away and leave me alone.
yOU FIRST. yOU REPLIED TO ME.
You can have the last word. I understand children like that.
Aw, c’mon, you know you’re having fun giving me a hard time of it. Why spoil your fun?
You dream.
The 6000 years of reality are so easy for a dreamer to stretch to the point of absurdity. But the evidence laughs at you.
So, does this mean you are one of the Bishop Usher proponents?
I am a YHVH proponent.
His word perfectly proclaims and fully reveals a 7000 year existence of space-time. When its over, I won’t need to tell you. If you had any intellectual coriosity, you would have found it for yourself; its not hidden.
“If you had any intellectual coriosity, you would have found it for yourself; its not hidden.”
On the contrary, I’ve known many different groups of many different faiths who promote the idea of Creation being only some thousands of years in the past. It was only a matter of being polite to ask you which of these faiths you may or may not have been a proponent for their beliefs. It is unfortunate to see you respond to the polite inquiry with a snarky and impolite response.
All you or anyone has to do is study the word and it becomes plain that all creation is in a pattern of sevens.
The end of the seventh millenium will be the end of space-time. We are at the end of the sixth millenium presently.
Seven is the Biblical number representing completion, and spiritual perfection. Six is the number of man. the end of the sixth millenium represents the end of man’s rule on Earth.
