The same natural rights the Church philosophised just prior to the writing of the Magna Carta. [/quote] Many of those rationalists believed in natural rights, while rejecting Christianity. The two are not inseparable. Yes, the church cooked up some original ideas a thousand years after Christ, and those influenced the Magna Carta over 800 years ago. America and Australia took parts of what worked from earlier countries, but they were never required to adhere to scripture or Christianity as a basis. There's nothing stopping me from believing in human rights while believing Christianity is based on a myth. [/quote] Then don't claim rationalists came up with new concepts or ideals when [b]all they did was accept ideas from the Church[/b] which took them hundreds of years probably because they refused to accept anything the Church thought was a good idea. [/quote] That's false. They did present new ideas, as well as draw from ancient philosophers. The Magna Carta was long before the abolition. As the church lost power, our freedoms increased. [quote:newtome:MV8zOTM2MzAxXzcxNTI1Mjg5X0EyREEwQTQ3] Not wanting to believe in God or divinity is another matter. It is no different to Einstein refuting the big bang theory because of its acceptance by the Church. [/quote] Huh? How are those things comparable? [/quote] Not with regards to slavery [/quote] The Magna Carta didn't prohibit slavery. The rights proposed by the church of England were contingent on humans being created by the Christian god. The Rationalists proposed the existence of rights independent from Christianity, which made the Bible's support of slavery irrelevant. [/quote]
Original Message
The discovery of tyrannosaurus soft tissue is enough to cost this scientist her job. The implications are that the infamous dinosaur can be no older than several thousand years, twelve thousand max. This significant discovery should be enough to at least cause a revision of natural history. interview of scientist who found the soft tissue begins at 1:25 by 60 Minutes.
At 25 minutes they speak pertaining to the blood vessels found in these "fossils".
