1. Multiple expert opinions: There is no expert on blood cells that have been fossilized for billions of years or millions of years.

But there are experts in meteorite analysis and mineral samples. We have one online here with us, but you've been ignoring him.

2. Chemical analysis is useless in identifying red blood cells of billions of years ago.

I agree. That's because blood cells from billions of years ago don't exist. But a chemical analysis could easily identify the composition of various areas in the micrographs and that information could falsify your conclusions, so you MUST address it in order to follow a scientific analysis.

3. The morphology of mammalian red blood cells is unique, which means there is no other material in the world that matches red blood cells in both their size and shape.

But there are many things which have a superficial similarity, and the images you have provided simply do not contain enough detail to prove your assumptions.

4. I have provided micrographs of human red blood cells for comparison with the ET RBC remains at the same magnification. In view of points 2, 3 and 4, why is there need for chemical analysis in order to identify red blood cells?

Because points 2 and 3 can be easily discredited and point 4 is not a point at all, but simply photo's of already identified cells.

I have posted eight reasons showing why they cannot be other things.

You have not. You have posted unverified assumptions and invalid conclusions.

No one can identify them as any other things. What reason do people have to doubt them as red blood cell remains?
We can identify (and have identified) them as simple mineralization effects, but you are ignoring the facts.

@bewildered,
For everyone with common sense:

bewildered "aka Wretch" has a wonderful imagination, like seeing pigs fly.

Tom Phillips Meteorite Micrograph Gallery resides on our site and we know Tom very well. The fact is these are images of meteorites and nothing more... PERIOD!

We have also had to file copyright infringement complaints multiple times against this person. We currently have a complaint opened with Google.

You have to wonder about someone who goes by the name "Wretch".

@TheMeteoriteExchange,
Thanks for the information. Bewildered has been erroneously making claims that a meteorite thin section included all these imaginative mammal cells when anyone with a bit of trining in thin section analyses can debunk his claims. That just doesnt matter to him. I really thonk that he has some problems dealing with reality.
I hope that your litigation is successful.
PS,years ago, I taught a petrology course and included thin section prep and analyses in the lab segments. The only meteorites Id seen in TS were of iron nickel with Widdmenstatten figures. We had to use suopwerstage lighting and reflective methods. In Phillips thin sections there were a number of plagioclase and pyroxene segments . SDo you know whether Phillips made the thin sections himself or did he have them done by a preparator? and does he use balsam as a mounting glue?
