If you think that is science its no wonder you believe evolution is true.
It survived because the conditions necessary for its decay were not present or not sufficiently active for it to have been completely destroyed.
I would have though that was pretty obvious.
Right, therefore it must be true. You realize this is what you accuse me of doing, right? In any case, there is more. Scientists have found DNA in ancient materials, such as magnolia leaves supposedly 20 million years old, and even in layers up to 400 million years old. Yet, any chemist will tell you this is impossible. DNA immediately begins to break down after death..in the presence of water it was entirely dissolve within 5000 years. Background radiation will take care of the rest, even under perfect conditions, in under 50000 years. So none of this is plausible, yet there it is. Something is obviously screwy with your dating methods.
You don't know very much do you power?
