Soft tissue means the fossils are recent

Soft tissue means the fossils are recent

In this video, Richard refers to an article which addresses agruments that have been put forward to try and refute the idea that soft tissues in fossils are recent. It comes to the conclusion that whilst some of the arguments may possibly be able to extend the lifespan of soft tissues by a few extra thousands of years, none of them are workable in terms of the millions of years required to support evolutionary thinking. In the absence of any arguments able to support the long age theory, we are left with one argument, namely that the fossils are only thousands of years old, which is can well be explained in terms of a recent worldwide flood.

Summary of Evidence for a Worldwide Flood

[Posted on: 29 June 2025 by Richard Worsley]

Summary of Evidence for a Worldwide Flood

In this video, Richard refers to an article by Dr. Terry Mortenson which summarises evidence for a recent worldwide flood, rather than a long earth history. The evidence can be divided into two broad areas:

1. Fossils – Fossilisation can only be the result of rapid burial. Added to this, we have the evidence of soft tissue which cannot last more than a few thousand years, and also the fact that we see fossils crossing the boundaries between rock layers that are supposedly millions of years apart in age.
2. Rock Layers – The absence of erosion between layers of sedimentary rock, and also the fact that the layers bend smoothly without cracks, both point to the flood as the most likely cause for their formation. Also the presence of similar layer patterns across continents points to a worldwide flood rather than a localised one.

Fossils – Evidence for a Worldwide Flood

Fossils – Evidence for a Worldwide Flood

In this video, Richard introduces a long and somewhat technical article about Lagerstätten despoits, which refers to places where fossils have been created with a high quality of preservation, often in large concentration within the given location. Most of these deposits are in sedimentary rocks, which would have been created by water activity. There is also plenty of evidence to suggest that these processes would have occurred very rapidly, thus defending the case for a worldwide floog.

Soft Tissue in Fossils (2)

This follows on a similar theme to the previous post Soft Tissue in Fossils (1). The ‘Watch (1)’ link is to the YouTube video in which Richard introduces the subject. The ‘Watch (2)’ link is to another video on the subject, about 10 minutes duration and well worth watching.

Soft Tissue in Fossils (1)

Soft Tissue in Fossils (1)

In this vide, Richard introduces an article by Dr Brian Thomas on the subject of soft tissue in fossils. Starting with Dr Mary Schwitzer in 2005, a substantial number of scientific articles have been published, providing evidence that soft tissue has been found in fossils. The simple fact of the matter is that biological material cannot last more than a few thousand years, and yet the scientific community continues to try and explain it away, in order to fit the facts with a long evolutionary timescale. The article looks at arguments put forward to explain it away and comes to the conclusion that such arguments just do not work.

The only reasonable conclusion has got to be that the fossils are in fact the product of a recent worldwide flood as recorded in the Bible.

Human Fossils

Human Fossils

In this video, Richard introduces an article about human evolution in relation to fossil evidence. Over the years, evolutionists have failed to establish any evidence for ancestoral links between humans and apes, and yet in spite of this, continue to operate on the assumption that such a process had to be so. In reality, all relevant fossils can clearly be defined as belonging to either apes or humans, leaving us faced with clear evidence supporting the idea that human beings were a special and separate creation.

Soft Tissue in an Ichthyosaur

Soft tissue in a ‘Jurassic’ ichthyosaur

In this video, Richard introduces an article about the way that traces of soft tissue have been found in the fossil of an ichthyosaur. The presence of soft tissue in fossils provides compelling evidence for an age of only thousands of years, rather than the normally accepted millions of years.
