      Oddly enough I think the strongest lessons the Jurassic series has taught us are moral and ethical ones. At least for me the quote that personifies the entire franchise is when Dr. Malcolm says’ “your scientists were so caught up with whether they could they didn’t stop to think whether they should.” This I believe is a central theme in the movies that we would do well to learn from.

    I actually met Mary Schweitzer several years when at a Dino Fest event! Had a brief but really good chance to speak with her about her research. Aside from the renmants of iron proteins in their blood cells, they were also among the medulary tissues that ovulating female archosaurs deposit in their femurs in preparation for the minerals needed for egg shells. So B-rex was pregnant at time of her death.
    Also, B-rex is actually 68-million years old, which makes it one of the oldest T. rex specimens yet discovered! So that now raises the potential about what could be found in many other rex specimens we have in museums or still in the ground?
    Also, they have found the exact same tissues in a specimen of teenage Allosaurus and Tenontosaurus too! So these tissues have been shown capable of surviving for over 150-million years! Plus, these tissues have been found in both Theropoda and Ornithischia, so far, which means we should expect to find some in Sauropod limb bones too!

      It's not. There's an ever growing list of soft tissue remnants in fossils. Not only that but even DNA in a hadrosaur fossil was found. Now it was highly degraded, with segments of only 6 base pairs long at a time being preserved. Never the less DNA cannot last thar long, if for no other reason than nuclear decay from the DNA itself. There's no protective coating, or preservation method that will keep DNA from decaying completely after a few thousand years.

      Extremely unlikely. First, T-rex has a ton of material assigned to it, probably more than any therapod other than Allosaurus.
      Allosaurus was further in time from T-rex than T-rex is from us. T-rex is probably the best-case-scenario, since it lived right up until the extinction event. It's the "youngest" non-bird therapod known.
      The only other animals where this kind of thing could conceivably happen are animals that lived around the same time, and only then in particularly thick bones. Maybe a triceratops. Probably some south american sauropods. Maybe an edmontosaurus femer. Anything older and I'm sure time would already have stripped all of this away.

      T-Rex is an rather common dinosaur if you're taking a closer look.
      Compared to most dinosaurs which only are described by 1-2 finds and mostly bone fragments or just teeth we got T-Rex which we have over 40! and nearly compleat ones.
      So yeah... T-Rex isn't that rare if you want to be precise. :)

      Biggest problem concerning the iron model is its lack of any evidence.
      Not only is the hemoglobin in soft tissue remains in very good condition. (That is to say not spread around at all) and over all iron concentrations in the tissues as they would normally be (to low to matter in terms of preservation)
      But the only experiment done to date to try to validate the iron model done by Schweitzer and her team was conducted terribly.
      Specifically the evaluation of the end products was only done strictly on a visual basis of "how preserved did it look" no chemistry, or spectroscopy was employed determine any degreadtory status between samples.

      Actually many scientists do believe that T rex did have feathers, not only did the cousin of the Tyrannosaurus, Dilong Paradoxus had a thin coat of feathers, in fact many advanced theropods had showed evidence of having feathers, so it's thought all advanced theropods have a ranging amount of feathers or feather like structures. Many scientists believe that young T-Rex was covered in down feather like fuzz for warmth, but lost the majority of the feathers as they grew leaving a mohawk like formation of proto feathers on their head, neck, and down their back towards the tail.

      Because real truth is unpopular, much like how Glen Cuban went down to the Paluxy River in Glen Rose, Texas with an iron pole and smashed to pieces the infilled human footprints that overlapped dinosaur tracks. In case you don't know who he is, he's the guy that won the "Humanist of the Year" award for explaining the human footprints in dinosaur strata as nothing more than eroded dinosaur tracks. However, the human track depressions overlapping the infilled dinosaur tracks were special and Glen Cuban understood this. The reason the infilled tracks are special is the material that fills the tracks is harder than the material the track is set in, so as the material surrounding the track erodes, the harder infill stands out sharper and clearer as it is more resistant to erosion. So what that does is create a sort of raised 3D track rather than an eroded hole in the rock, and when you have a human footprint over lapping the infill, it makes an incredibly strong case for it being an actual human footprint instead of an eroded dinosaur track. They have also found human footprints in Russia so this is not some anomaly, it's real and it's being covered up. I recommend you watch the video "Don Patton - Record of the Rocks". It contains evidence that is literally set in stone and is absolutely fascinating.

      I, too, am a Christian, and find that "line in the sand" to be silly. There is no reason that the Earth can't be billions of years old. Never saw a reason for the fight, other than, as you said, people LOOKING for a fight. I mean, yes, Genesis says God made the Earth in six days. But what is a "day" to God, to a being who exists on a plane so far removed from our own? He would have told it all to Adam, of course, and Adam would have handed it down to his children and their children after that, but language and context change from retelling to retelling. It was not actually written down until the time of Moses, and there have been translation and retranslations in the millennia after that. We will never know for sure in this life, and in the long run whether the Earth is four thousand or four billion years old simply does not matter - God made it all, and as long as we are giving Him the glory and the acknowledgement, the exact point WHEN it happened is not of consequence.

      Ditto here. The whole young earth creationist view is rather bizarre to me to be honest. It takes the bib ikr compliantly out of its historical context and shoves it into a post enlightenment view of history and science. It also ignores the clear (and almost certainly purposeful) parallels between the it and Babylonian works it was written in response to. All in all it just doesn’t make sense literarily, scripturally, philosophically, or historically. And can sort of be a barrier to the gospel in my humble opinion.

      Such things as cloning would only go on until a healthy population has been established, which would be kept in check by hunting.
      What JP always did and admonished was wanting to create an animal park, while showing hostility towards humans hunting the dinosaurs.
      In the real world hunting has become a very real demographic to helping keep animal populations healthy and safe.
      The reintroduction of wolves and elk in Yellowstone and the State of Michigan, which got both. Wolves in the park helped keep the elk population in check, and the wolves in Michigan and elsewhere near the Great Lakes have contributed to a good healthy population in which hunting is only recently begun. The elk have also contributed greatly to a hunting population, albeit in Michigan it has yet to become a big enough population for hunters to hunt them every year as the state does a raffle contest to hunt the elk. Something similar can work for dinosaurs, as long as they’re in a habitat that is suitable.
      I’m more favorable to doing that in Africa and not continental America for multiple reasons, but it could work.

    Something I realized later in my life, regarding my beliefs & the world around me; don’t try to change Scripture in a way that fits today’s science. Instead, start with Holy Scripture as the source, and fit the reality of our universe into it. The question’s answer does not require a choice between Science and Christianity. It’s just a matter of where do you start and end, and which do you prioritize if there is a moment of contention between the two.

    This is an off topic suggestion, but it’s one I’d like to see you talk about in a future video as well as other obscure dinosaurs in this franchise. I’ve recently picked up earlier this month the Mattel 30th anniversary set that came with the Explorer vehicle which was a throw back to the cancelled Kenner toy from Series 2 (which has been a long desired vehicle for me since I love the color scheme on this far more than the movie version), but it also came with a figure of the Scotosaurus which was also based on a cancelled figure from Series 2 which the mold was later reused for a figure pack during TLW. Apparently this dinosaur isn’t talked about much and I don’t see too many videos discussing about it, so, perhaps you could look into this obscure dinosaur that does have some JP history which could lead to other future videos of other obscure JP dinosaurs also getting some attention.

    I think at the end of the day, we can never _truly_ know what the world was like back then and how old (or not) things are, simply because we ourselves were not alive back then. On top of that, historical texts from thousands of years ago (aside the Bible, Roman, Egyptian, etc. stuff) are so few and far between that it’s just hard to piece things together.
    I believe it’s very important to have differing opinions because that is THE number one way we humans have made breakthrough discoveries, and as you said, many Christians have spearheaded those discoveries, just as anyone else!
    We’ve not been pursuing this science for long enough to know the _true_ effects of gradual change over time (and how processes speed up or slow down at certain stages) and how long it takes for things to fossilize in the way they have. So, like much of science, it all comes down to theory- and that’s why I believe that, again, it’s so important to leave room for differing opinions, no matter how ridiculous our pride may cause us to think they are.
    I could go on for hours about scientific studies and evidence as to why it’s very much possible that the earth is quite young, and that the biblical flood was THE extinction event that wiped out many of the large creatures on this earth, and the cause of many of the incredible natural geographical wonders of our earth, but at the same time, I do understand where other people come from with believing the earth is very old.
    At the end of the day, it’s all such incredible stuff and we all have a love for the earth and its mysterious and beautiful history, and I wholeheartedly believe that it’s very important that we work together and respect and love each other despite our beliefs because of that. We’re all human. Science is just theory for the most part. We need to swallow our pride and act like it if we ever want to move forward.

      Unless it's possible dinosaurs or atleast some dinosaurs are younger than 65 million years old. You ever heard of catastrophism and how it affects our planet? The 65 million year figure is based on sediment layers, what if a giant asteroid hit the ocean, what kind of a tsunami would that create? Could you imagine a 1, 2,3 or even 4 thousand foot high wall of water traveling at Mach speeds? We think about how that would kill all the living things but often fail to contemplate what that would do to the land. Study the sediment layers in the grandcanyon, there's alot of evidence the sediment there was deposited very rapidly instead of millions of years. Dinosaurs may not be as old as we think and the possibility of DNA extraction may still be on the table (atleast partial extraction that with enough samples we might get close to completing)
