That's not a valid argument - it's an argument from ignorance and personal incredulity. What's important is that this is actual chemical evidence that helps back up a claim made long ago by comparative anatomy. It demonstrates once again that evolutionary theory is good at making verifiable predictions.

But wait! Soft tissue in a fossil over 65 million years old? And it hasn't yet decayed?!? Please... And they say creationists believe in fairy tales ;) I think it is ironic (at least to me, as a YEC) that the second article tries to show the similarity to birds, based on T-Rex’s soft tissue, ultimately to try and show that birds and dinosaurs are connected via evolution.
