Natural radioactivity, mutations, and decay degrade DNA and other biological material rapidly. Measurements of the mutation rate of mitochondrial DNA recently forced researchers to revise the age of "mitochondrial Eve" from a theorized 200,000 years down to possibly as low as 6,000 years.

DNA experts insist that DNA cannot exist in natural environments longer than 10,000 years, yet intact strands of DNA appear to have been recovered from fossils allegedly much older: Neandertal bones, insects in amber, and even from dinosaur fossils.

Bacteria allegedly 250 million years old apparently have been revived with no DNA damage.This proves the bacteria could not be more than 10,000 years old

Soft tissue and blood cells have been found in a dinosaur proving it is less than 10,000 years old.

It is obvious to many scientists too.
The law of biogensis states that life only comes from other life. Most evolutionists admit that Darwin's theory of evolution does not deal with how the fist life on earth came to exist. That is, evolution can't explain molecules to living cells and it can’t explain the origin of the information in DNA and RNA.

Are you getting Alzheimers, RJHinds?
You wrote: "The law of biogensis states that life only comes from other life."
Now listen, if you say that (P) "that life only comes from other life" then every cell must come from another cell, and you say there have always been cells there to generate more cells, not only from the Big Bang and onward, but all the eternity before that. Your postulate (P) then clearly prohibits abiogenesis, as well as divine creation.
If you don't have any knowledge, don't even pretend that you have...
Originally posted by FabianFnasThe law of biogenesis denies that life can come from non-life, like a rock, but states that life must always come from life. It does not deny that there must be an eternal source of life. Obviously, that eternal source of life is God.

God is the one that designed and programmed the different kinds of living things so that they always reproduce after their own kind. That rules out the theory of evolution. Therefore, the theory of evolution is dead.
Originally posted by RJHindsYes, I know, that's a part of your religion. And this is spiritual forum, so you can have this religious opinion in peace, please do.

Why don't you link stuff showing a young Earth from a site like MIT or CERN instead of agenda reeking creationists desperately trying to gain political power?
Originally posted by RJHindsSo you are ok with the creationist agenda: Gaining political power to be used to force evolution out of schools by whatever means they deem useful, whether weaponized pseudoscience or bible thumping, whatever gets them the political power to terrorize the educational system.

You have to realize that's what they are, educational terrorists.
Originally posted by sonhouseI view the old earth evolutionists or evilutionists as the terrorists.

Originally posted by RJHindsThe way it is now, science wins because it goes with evidence and uses the proven methods of science.
I view the old earth evolutionists or evilutionists as the terrorists.
If creationism won, it would bring chaos to the world of science, scientists not able to work at their discipline, forced to spout the creationist dogma.
If that happened I would move back to Thailand or Israel or Andros.
I would not live in a religious terrorist country.
Originally posted by RJHindsIt was not an explosion !! it was the expansion of all time and space and energy but to think of it in terms of an explosion is not correct
I do not believe that the universe could have came about by an explosion. An explosion would bring disorder instead of the order that is demonstrated by our solar system.
