    And yet, all of the dino soft tissue tested has C14 remaining and no one has been able to refute the methodology or the findings. huh...


    Maybe, just maybe, the deniers shouldn't have hung their failed science on dating elements by making w.a.g. assumptions about the composition at formation, addition or subtraction of parent and daughter isotopes over time, and decay rates in an open environment that have been shown to be wildly variable in the lab.

    Jus' sayin'...

    ^ total drivel. Complete nonsense.




    That's the kind of liberish nonsense that tells me it's time to walk away. That rates a total face palm. Just WOW.

    Well, the common consensus among scientists was that tissue could not survive tens of millions of years. But when they find it, they have to go against what was commonly held to be fact. They will not question if the time scale is what they got wrong, so the will try to find a solution to the problem created by tissue. But the idea that bones old enough to become fossilized could allow the survival of biologic tissue seems to be nonsense. It would be hard to come up with a solution, for there is no way to prove that this is possible by experimentation. So, a hypothesis will be offered up, with no way to find hard evidence for it. So it becomes a another philosophical belief, affecting theory. Science, the very founding of it, indulged in philosophy, which is materialism. Materialism says matter is the ground of reality. That consciousness is not the ground, but a product of matter. But if this is not true, all of the beliefs that materialism has created are false.

    My question was how do you know how old the fossil is?

    To be fair just because someone believes in evolution doesn't automatically mean they are liberals.
