Wouldn't we expect to see substantially more than 30% of the DNA be different.

I don't think carbon dating can be used to extract DNA.

I also would have thought DNA would have degraded significantly over that period of time.

There are probably a thousand more reasons this is blatantly false, to those with scientific knowledge beyond my early highschool experiences.

It's bizarre and fascinating the Mexican government has entertained this.
