Randy: These "degraded hemoglobin fragments" produces immune responses in rats.
I thought it was chickens. Chickens 'n rats 'n mammals, oh my! Just a moment...:
quote: Randy: note "blood-derived hemoglobin compounds", not "hemoglobin". Note also from the paper itself:
quote: And from Dino-blood and the Young Earth, which Randy has obviously not bothered to read:

Then you have evidence that fragments of organic molecules cannot survive for million or years under very special conditions? Please reference this I don't have any such reference, but this is really cool. Science, Vol 307, Issue 5717, 1952-1955, 25 March 2005: Soft-Tissue Vessels and Cellular Preservation in Tyrannosaurus rex:

Scroll down to the "Newly Found Dinosaur Tissue Raises Hope of Extracting DNA" item. Eentsy-weentsy pictures.

I am just going by the news stories and what the scientists have themselves reported Going by the news stories is a bad idea. Bet you haven't read what the scientists themselves wrote. As quoted at Dino-blood and the Young Earth, what the scientists themselves wrote is quote:{emphasis added - JonF} Doesn't sound as if they are sure at all. But there probably are traces of dinosaur collagen there. You have yet to establish that it is unreasonable to expect that such things should occasionally happen in mainstream science timelines. Your opinion doesn't count (given that you have no demonstrated and relevant expertise); facts, evidence, and analysis do.
Actually these bones were found in porous rock (i.e. Sandstone) so that, coupled with the fact that bone itself is porous, suggests quite strongly (in my opinion) that such would be "unusual" Even assuming that you are correct about the type of rock (unlikely given your track record in geology), it comes down to ... your opinion. But, yes, it would be unusual. Unusual happens. Deal with it.
opinion based on sound principles of science, as opposed to the wild and fantasy ridden speculations of so called "Scientists" who are to this day, propagating gross distortions and lies to the American public with regard to the unscientific hypothesis of the spontaneous generation of life apart from a Creator. Glad to see that you agree that all you have is your opinion ... this item, at least, is not even evidence. Much less "overwhelming" evidence. I'm really underwhelmed so far. When are you going to post a measurement of the age of the Earth that yields less than 1,000,000 years?

A report is expected at The Panda's Thumb Real Soon Now, but PZ Myers has posted some great pictures (including SEM shots) at Pharyngula, in Tyrannosaur morsels.
He quotes the paper and comments:
quote:quote:So, basically, these cells were entombed in a thick mineral sarcophagus, protected from bacteria and other external insults. There have to have been other factors at playcells are full of enzymes that trigger a very thorough self-destruct sequence at deathso I'm definitely looking forward to the molecular analysis. Even if their form was preserved, I expect these cells to be denatured monomer soup on the inside.

Like I said: The Dinosaurs are NO OLDER than the Mammoths and Mammoth bones buried in the tundra soil and in Ice. Yes, you said, and your only support is your opinion. The sum total of your support for your claim is the claim itself, when you asserted "just like the Mammoth bones found today in the actic regions". Evidence is what you are supposed to be supplying here, remember? Overwhelming evidecne is what you offered, and you've failed miserably at providing any evidence. I even outlined what you could do to try so support your opinion with evidence, which you ignored. Like I said, and backed up with detailed discussion and evidence: "... thousands of studies using different and independent methods, cross-correlated and triple-checked, all pointing a complex and long but coherent and consistent history of the Earth ... that's overwhelming evidence. You haven't even got intriguing rumors."
But there probably are traces of dinosaur collagen there. You have yet to establish that it is unreasonable to expect that such things should occasionally happen in mainstream science timelines. Your opinion doesn't count (given that you have no demonstrated and relevant expertise); facts, evidence, and analysis do.
Randy: Integrity is, in my opinion, a LOT more important than "so called" expertise. And until the "scientific" community comes clean and admits that they have LIED to the public with regard to the scientifically impossible "odds" of a self-replicating cell organizing itself, they have ZERO credibility. In other words: A degree is only as good as the person using it. And it is a FACT that almost all scientists are BIASED when it comes to their opinions regarding the (subjective) FACTS and what they really mean. Interesting. I make a side comment on expertise, and that's what you choose to rant about. Having a little trouble responding tho the substantive portions of the posts? Integrity is probably more important than expertise; similarly, evidence is definitely more important than expertise. You have yet to establish that it is unreasonable to expect that such things should occasionally happen in mainstream science timelines. Your opinion doesn't count; facts, evidence, and analysis do. Still waiting for your response to the rest of the points in Message 166, especially your further discussion of the San Andreas Fault in The San Andreas Fault: Randy Berg's evidence for YEC.

So, Randy, as edge pointed out your claim of unfossilized dinosaur bones is probably totally wrong and questionable at best ... and even if one or two unfossilized dinosaur bones were found, that would not be justification for equating the condition or age of all dinosaur bones with the condition or age of typical mammoth bones. This is "overwhelming" evidence?
