OMFG!!!! he's discovered piltdown man is a fake!!!
wonder who told the creationist what the rest of the world has known
for decades.
oh wel...creationists just aren't all that bright
and one can only guess at what this has to do with evolution...
Two words:
"TV Preacher"
Please .....
tell me you're not THAT stupid!
Sorry to burst your bubble.
Sorry, Piltdown man was the product of charlatans, the spiritual and
personality equivalents of creationists. So charlatans are to blame
for Piltdown, scientists are to the credit for uncovering it, and
creationists were sitting around uselessly doing nothing, as always.

You're right! Piltdown Man invalidates all of science! I recommend
you put down your computer and go and live in a science-free unibomber
style shack in the woods.
There has definitely been scientific fraud in recent years, such as the
sad case of the Ketek antibiotic, in which the key clinical trial was
revealed to be a total fake:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telithromycin
This was far worse than Piltdown Man; because as a result of this fraud,
a number of patients died from this drug.
I wonder if these creationists would then argue that such frauds prove
we should throw out all of modern medicine and go back to herbalism and
prayer. Maybe they would.

The Piltdown Man case proves how the creationists' arguments haven't
even been modernized in 50 years.
There have been more recent examples of scientific fraud that are far
worse than Piltdown Man--medical frauds that led to the deaths of
patients, fake "discoveries" that remained in the scientific journals
for years, etc.. They might be ammunition for this creationist-Fortean
argument that science is never sure about anything, so why should we
trust them about evolution, or anthropogenic global warming for that matter?
But the creationists don't cite them--because they never bothered to
learn about them. They keep citing Piltdown Man, which didn't occur in
the lifetimes of most of their audience.
I could do a better job arguing their case than they could, at least as
far as OEC goes.
You should not be sorry, you should be ashamed.

Piltdown was one of the worst hoaxes, frauds in science and the one that
has the most relevance with this ng.

They are irrelevant as far as the ToE is concerned. Medicine gallops
along without any help from the useless ToE, remember?

At least in medicine, it can be as much of an art than it is a science,
so you are wrong...again.

Actually the least probably. Human evolution is fairly well documented

It was a very minor hoax. If it had not been for two world wars, and
one of the greatest economic depressions in history, the hoax would
have been exposed far earlier. Even from the outset some were not
convinced by the fossil and certainly long before the hoax was
exposed, by scientists, it was clear the fossil did not fit with
others that had been discovered.

Evolution is so deep rooted in biology today that it is impossible to
consider one without the other.

I just read the article. Four people dead from liver failure, when
safer antibiotics could have been used. The woman who falsified
her data ought to be crucified, instead of being in prison for 57
months.
Note the victim of the fraud included the maker of Telithromycin.
Meanwhile, Creationists not only ignore lies and fraud committed
by other Creationists, they actively and agressively *DEFEND*
those lies and frauds.

You know damn well they would. And they would also demand that the
government fund those prayers.

Refused arguments indeed are "perishable." Why are you cult
retards parroting Creationist lies and bullshit that was refuted
as far back as Thomas Aquinas?

What assertions have Creationists made recently that are not at
least 300 years old? The details may change, and the delivery, but
all of their arguments are centuries old, going at least as far
back as the 13th century.

I wish to disagree. Their arguments are at best 150 years old. Prior to
Darwin, arguments were *from* design to the nature of God or
Providence, not from God *to* the nature of the world. Paley honestly
thought, as did all the natural theologians before and since, that by
understanding the world honestly, we could infer things about the
designer. This is the one thing no creationist of IDevotee has ever
tried to do, because they *already know* what God is about from their
interpretation of revelation.
Creationists ought to think of Paleyesque design arguments as heretical
and deistic. Why? Because you do not get the God of the Bible from
natural theology (and they knew it).
And here he had hopes for you being not stupid.
Why did you burst his bubble?

because it's your assertion that science is fatally flawed because
there have been frauds
yet you refuse to say the same about religion.

actually yes. what it shows is that, when scientists discover fraud,
creationists pretend it falsifies science
i suggest you go look up jan hendrik schon. does his fraud invalidate
the science behind your computer?
the creationist is SSSOOOO hopelessly illiterate he cant understand
the very basics behind science

not according to those of us who are scientists

without it.
that's useless
