What of the DNA in Sheep and Dinosaurs?

Creation still declares the glory of God, even in unintuitive places, such as paleo-genetic science, as evinced in the ICR article DNA in Sheep and Dinosaurs. This article presents the solid case that can be made for the young age of dinosaur fossils by comparing the preservation of the genes in an ancient lamb carcass within a salt mine to the genetic material being found in dinosaur bones and other materials. Young-age dinosaurs are solid evidence of a young earth, and therefore, of a literal Genesis depiction of creation. This too is to God’s glory in creation, which should evoke wonder and worship from His people.

Raised a Catholic but became born again in young adulthood principally through reading Evidence that Demands a Verdict by Josh McDowell (I highly recommend it). I prefer the Reformed faith and subscribe to the Five Solas, but hold to baptism by immersion. I also hold to a continuationist view of the doctrine of Spiritual gifts. To me, the Bible is the inerrant Word of God, with a Christocentric theme in its entirety. I hold to an orthodox preterist hermeneutic and prefer the Postmillenial eschatology as the most biblical doctrine of God’s plan for His kingdom in Christ.
