The arrangement of dinosaur fossils in the ground and the type of rock in which they are found can help paleontologists learn about the circumstances surrounding death.

Methane hydrate worms collected by the Johnson Sea Link II submersible at a depth of 1777 feet in the Gulf of Mexico as a part of the SSETI (Shelf Slope Experimental Taphonomy Initiative) research trip.

Nephilimfree 3 The video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCYpmF0ajj8 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Higby_Schweitzer Young Earth Creationists have cited Schweitzer's work as evidence that the earth is only a few thousand years old because they are interested in possible lines of evidence which indicate that dating methods based on uniformitarian principles are incorrect.[8] Schweitzer, however, who describes herself as a "complete and total Christian", has nonetheless condemned this interpretation of her work because given the established paradigm there can be no question that the geologic age of the formation containing the bones is 65 million years old.[9] Schweitzer is currently researching Molecular Paleontology, molecular diagenesis and taphonomy, evolution of physiological and reproductive strategies in dinosaurs and their bird descendants, and astrobiology.[10] She is currently working with NASA scientists to look for trace evidences of past life on other bodies in the solar system. The Evidence of Biological Information (R.I.P. Atheism) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wbUrY1ADNA I don't like thejaredjammer he censors a lot and likes to show debunked arguments and gloat that it's the end of atheism, but still. In the video he starts off saying that natural selection could not have been the process for biological information. So instead of going to a biologist he goes to a philosopher of science http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Meyer he starts off saying chemical evolution can not explain it which abiogenisis explains it nicely I can get into it later but next At 2:40 he says all the information can fit into a teaspoon and have room left over for all the information in every book ever written But I've already seen the case for a creator, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8N2hB7ENRRE Casting Crowns Set Me Free nice song

"Mummy" corpse talk, and of Valentines and Love. Also my cat's 2nd birthday.

Let's go on a ride in a submarine!

This presentation will critique John Pendleton's video, "Evidence of Noah's Flood" and the references are at the end. However, due to what I think is an error in Youtube's flash player, the video stops before the references show. I'll put them in the video description as soon as I type them out.
