and you are right..soft tissue in bones given that age is not possible..so how do you explain the result scientifically?

Well I'm not a scientist, but they're not rewriting the science books because of this find. They still estimate the bone's age at 70 million years. I don't know WHY the soft tissue in bones does not decompose; you should ask them.

they have no clue because the only likely explanation is that the dating of the bones and fossils has been inaccurate..that is why it was changed from the carbon dating to reubidium strontiium method to another two or three other methods..all have proven to be inaccurate...so lets face it..what God tells us is true and what humans tell us is inaccurate or untrue

Just thought I'd point those out.

Being a servant of God has nothing to do with going to a physical church, anyway.

it is in our hearts.
Depends what you mean with 'physical church.' A building? NO. A group of people that in any way gather in Jesus' name? YES. Being a servant of God isn't just 'in you heart', it's what makes you a part of a bigger community, congregation and ultimately of the church universal.

Psalm 22: 22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.
Psalm 22: 25 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

Matthew 18: 20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

one of the objections to many worlds hypothesis is that multiverse itself also involves fine-tuning. For in order to be scientifically credible, some plausible mechanism must be suggested for generating the many worlds. But if the many worlds hypothesis is to be successful in attributing fine-tuning to chance alone, then the mechanism that generates the many worlds had better be fine-tuned itself. For if it is, then the problem arises all over again: How do you explain the fine-tuning of the multiverse.
Let me rephrase it
Some plausible mechanism must be suggested for generating the many worlds. You might imagine a giant machine that has dials that would need to be tuned to produce universes. The problem then arises all over again: How do you explain the origin of a machine like that. Who built that machine? How can you explain a mechanism that is able to produce a fine-tuned universe such as ours?

How something completely random could produce something so fine-tuned? So the machine must be fine-tuned itself.

Is it what you are going to tell your atheist friends in a college or somewhere who might ask you something like “Give me at least one good non-religious argument for God’s existence?”

Again... God doesn't NEED your non-religious, pseudo arguments to be God, GOD IS HE.

It isn't always about what God needs. God doesn't necessarily NEED the human race at all.

But He has made us and we're here. Some people have a hard time believing. And it's usually because of something that's happened in their lives to turn them away from believing in a God.

'Why do children starve?'

'Why do people bleed?'

'Why do we feel pain?'

'Why can't God make everything better'.

The method, for me, to be used isn't 'what a stupid question. god doesn't need you stupid questions'.

It's more of giving an answer that dignifies God.

God has made us. And we're here to help each other.

Not many people do it.

That's why children starve.

That's why people get hurt.

Because mostly, the world doesn't really care that much.

That wasn't my point at all...
