Thanks Ardegee, that third link contains the most robust debunking so far:

Quote:
The claim is made in the paper that the filaments pre-date the meteorite’s fall to Earth because they contain no detectable nitrogen. This starts with the assumption that the filaments are fossils, then uses the non-detection of nitrogen to “prove” that they are fossils. This is a circular argument. The fact is that no nitrogen was detected, and so nothing of importance can be drawn from that non-measurement. …which doesn’t matter anyway, because these filaments are sulfates. Not fossils.
It's going to be interesting to see if that massive peer review actually emerges...
