Bizarre Creature Found in 200-Million-Year-Old Cocoon

200 million yrs really? And what standard do they use to figure this ? Oh yea thats right they have none...

I'm with religitard, without apology.

Ah life was so much more vital and powerful then. Eh it will come back. Better than before. For it has to be. All things must become more than they are in order to survive what is going to happen.

....C.C

Yeah, they're probably just guessing...
It's fact. Not a matter of opinion.
When did this become a religious board?
If you want to argue creationism, do it on Jesus.com

I beilieve you have a point! When I first read they were fooling around there about a year ago, it scared the hell out of me...Let sleeping dogs lie and all.

Look at the dick on that thing ladies. Just imagine.

I agree. Who knows what they might unleash? They already dug up 10,000 unknown virus'.

EDITED for factual content common in MSM.

What was that?

Ok my fellow believers in Jesus, seriously, its time like these where you "turn off" potential souls who could be saved when you make ridiculous claims. It's not your fault, as I'm aware that lot of preachers and people who aren't geniuses with the bible preach the wrong thing. Truth is the Gap Principle between Genesis 1:1, and 1:2.

Notice how "Created" is used when it came to Earth and heaven." And notice how created is not used until the creation of Adam, and aquatic creatures, everything else as far as the sun, moon, animals, etc, "Let, formed, made" is used. The reason is because God never creates anything that's not good. God would never create an earth that's void and desolate.

Notice in Genesis 1:2 it says : And the earth WAS without form, and void;..." Was is a bad translation from the hebrew text, WAS in hebrew actually means "Became".

Actually when God first created the heavens and the earth, earth was created for the angels and Lucifer to live on.

There's scripture to back this up but I'm not going to get into great detail about this. Also when Lucifer says in his heart how he will "rise above the clouds, stars, and be like the most high".

After the angels / lucifer rebelled against God himself, God executed judgment on the world. That's why it became VOID AND DESOLATE. That's when also Dinosaurs became extinct from the catastrophe that took place. Millions of years went by, demons became disembodied spirits roaming in darkness. Until later when God allowed his Light from his Glory, to show upon the earth once again...Let there be light.

Now going back to the term "made" being used for animals, when "Created" is used, it's because its something entirely new into existence that was created. If it once existed before, then made is used. Animals and everything were first created with the earth, so was the moon, stars and sun. But after judgment God basically "remodeled" everything back to new, but we still have the same earth. Obviously our sun and planets which already existed was remodeled as well to be able to be suitable to support life, because obviously if not the sun would probably be really small right now. As far as the stars in the outer heavens, I'm sure they're still the same.

Old earth, young creation.

This is just some brief input off the top of my head, if you want to study this in greater detail I invite you to read this book by Pastor Max D. Price. It's a free ebook online.

The truth about evolution, or don't let satan make a monkey out of you!

It's called carbon and relative dating.

Maybe if you didn't drop out of the 8th grade you would have learned a thing or two about how science actually operates.

Gn 1:5 "...and the evening and the morning was the FIRST DAY"

Scofield's gap theory is not founded in Bible or science. The earth is not a product of evolution.

Actually, the world is only 6000 years old. God had a great sense of humor and made everything look old just to screw with us.

carbon dating?

wow .

anything older than six thousand years and the religitards that lurk here foam at the mouth.


if the universe is only six thousand years old, that would put the speed of light at jogging pace.


even the original christians suscribe to evolution and date the earth at approx 4.5 billion years old and state most of the bible is simply false.

what cherry picking group do these idiots belong to?

a sayayin

it's a year each time the earth revoves around the sun.

years have seasons.

seasons have weather.

weather , especially precipitation (water from the sky) creates seasonal sedimentary layers.


annual, weather created sedimentary layers are often hundreds of thousands of layers thick and only represent a tiny fraction of weather records. satan put them there?


for fucks sake , you lot must be trying to turn people off your religion with your blind ignorance.

you lost me right there

That was a great article! Thanks, Doc!

Well that's cool! I've looked at vorticella under a microscope in one of my introductory zoology classes. Really neat looking organism. And even more neat is the fact that vorticella apparently lasted for so long without any apparent change in morphology! Absolutely amazing!

More likely god would have let the universe develop itself for billions of year, that's the only way to make it stable and durable... And then the Els teleported eons ahead in time and breeded the hominids. But it's undeniable, the universe gazed through telescopes, it's billion years old, the time taken for some stars to light travel to earth is in the order of thousand years. And Carbon dating cannot detect anything beyond 5700 years.

The geological stratifications tell in what period of time the matrix with foxils was formed.

So simple... Are you looking for sigillaria and lepidodendron fossils? Go for carboniferous deposits, dig up the carbon constituted layer.
Same as for diamonds, you won't dig diamonds in calcareous rocks. They only are boasted by Kymberlite.

How can a fossil be considered a 'bizarre creature', if it is one of the most easily identifiable microfossils around? Stupid author defeats the purpose of his wasted time drafting this story by creating drama out of nothing, and wasting other people's time.

Hmm, strange how we are finding ruins and structures that are 12,000 years or more old.

Yah. The earth is not 6000 years.
Geologists can figure this out by looking at the layers of dirt deposits on the side of a mountain cliff.
Come on ya silly butts.
But that doesn't mean I don't believe there are truths in the bible. Which I have been getting into.
But look at the billions of galaxies/stars/planets etc.
in the universe. 6000 years? Is ridiculous thinking.

You're mighty welcome

The earth is only 2 years old. I stopped reading at 200 million.

Very cool! Think about all of the unknown life forms on the planet, in the deep, deep, sea, etc.

The world is a cool place. :)

Not overly, no... and particularly not in my tea.... but

""About 200 million years ago, a leech released a slimy mucous cocoon that unwittingly encased and trapped a bizarre animal with a springy tail, preserving it until researchers discovered the teardrop-shaped creature in Antarctica recently."

I think this was very thoughtful of that little leech, and we humans don't usually realize to what lengths nature will go to help us along...
