I think there is a tiny misunderstanding. Not the world was created 6k years ago, but the forefathers of the creationists were created 6k years ago to make live difficult thereafter for the rest of humankind.

Before watching a documentary on dinosaur mummies I didn’t realize that soft tissues of the dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals could possibly be fossilized. Even the internal organs of a dinosaur were preserved in some very special cases. Kids working on science projects relating to paleontology need to ponder what conditions need to be present during the decomposition process to allow soft tissues to survive.

Now this is cool. I am wondering if this Hadrosaur mummy has any unfossilized organic material left in it, like that T-rex fossil that somebody cracked open and found pliable tissue.
