The theory of evolution has taken another hit according to an article from Agape Press on News Bull Family Blog Forum, entitled, Young Earth Creationist Has New Bone to Pick With Evolutionists.

This from the report:

“According to an article published in last month’s Science magazine, in 2003 scientists found a Tyrannosaurus Rex thigh bone during an archaeological dig. The research team had to break the bone in pieces in order to fit it into a helicopter, and when they did so, they discovered the fossil contained well-preserved soft tissues, including blood vessels.”

The original Science Magazine article can be found here.

This raises some fascinating questions concerning some key components in the evolution theory time-line. Ken Ham, President of Answers In Genesis is quoted as saying,

“The reason this is such startling news is because you just wouldn’t expect soft tissue and cells like this in a bone supposedly 70 million years old.”

Whether this brings any change in the current thought process in evolution remains to be seen. Those who believe and promote evolution, will more than likely not allow facts to overcome faith in their theory. They will simply devise with a means to explain away this important discovery.

Another excerpt says this:

“But what AiG (Answers In Genesis) scientists would say about the find, Ham observes, “is that it’s totally consistent with the fact that these bones aren’t that old and probably date back to the time of the flood just a few thousand years ago.” However, he doubts evolutionists will give consideration to the possibility that the T-Rex bones are only thousands rather than millions of years old.”

As we have said before, here, evolution is just as much a religion as is creationism. It should be viewed as such, and our education system should be teaching it as such, allowing creationism to be taught right alongside.

Once we understand that humans are special creations of God, a whole new perspective on life is formed. A perspective that does not view life so cheaply as it is viewed today.
