So much fraud to be found in the field of EVO ..where does one begin the herculean task of cleaning out the stench of EVO stables

I take it you have read too much into that sentence, and may well have missed the point to boot.

In nmh's case it's safer to just assume that he's lying.

[darbymcgill]

I'll have an easier time finding my cites than you'll have finding yours.

I'll bet I can find most, if not all in this thread alone... if not, it wouldn't take much research to complete the list...

But when I do, then what.... so why bother....

[Dimensio]

In some cases, the creationist's response will be more than one of the above. Note: one option is missing from the above -- the creationist will never support his claims with verifiable evidence.

You left out another option to which a creationist will never resort: admitting that the original claim was mistaken and apologize.

And where are all the flood geologists working for the petroleum industry? Making use of their superior understanding of geological processes to nail all the best deposits before those fools of conventional geologists grope their way to them? Hmmmm.

"Ota Benga was captured in 1904 by an evolutionist researcher in the Congo."

No, Ota Benga was captured by a missionary (Samuel Phillips Verner) in Africa, NOT by an evolutionist. Deal with it.

"Unable to bear the treatment he was subjected to, Ota Benga eventually committed suicide."

Yes, this is true... except it was AFTER he left the Zoo and was working at a Tobacco factory in Lynchburg, Virginia.

It's amazing the lies that creationists will make to get to heaven.

Feel free to fail to back up your claims. You'll be in fine creationist company numerous times on this thread alone.

[Dimensio]

So where is the reference to the "500 thesis"? It's not anywhere on the page to which you linked.

Or were you just lying about that?

I do like how the link refers to Nebraska Man. That's another favourite source of creationist dishonesty, because they can lie about it being a fraud when in fact it was no such thing.

[Thatcherite]

Yeah, but on that page there was another evo fraud that sounded REALLY TERRIBLE. Something about Piltdown Man? I've never heard a creationist mention that one before. Apparently the whole evil cult of evolutionism would collapse without Piltdown Man to sustain it. I think people should be told about it. And that other evil evolutionist lie, the Haeckel Embryo Diagrams. And there is Piltdown Man too. And don't forget the Haekel Frauds. Not to mention Piltdown Man! (Did anyone remember to mention Piltdown Man?)

[Dimensio]

Just in case you try to claim that your link did actually provide documentation of the "500 theses" claim, it provides only a reference to The End of Christendom (written in 1980). I had to track down exactly what that work cites, and I found that it simply contains this quote

"I'm very happy to say I live near a place called Piltdown. I like to drive there because it gives me a special glow. You probably know that a skull was discovered there, and no less than five hundred doctoral theses were written on the subject, and then it was discovered that the skull was a practical joke by a worthy dentist in Hastings who'd hurriedly put a few bones together, not even of the same animal, and buried them and stirred up all this business. So I'm not a great man for bones."

Of course, absolutely no reference to any of these "500 theses" is given whatsover, so your claim is still completely unsubstantiated. You've provided nothing more than a link to a citation that merely repeats your claim rather than supports it.

But then your claim was a lie, so I'm not surprised that it has no real support.

[Thatcherite]

Ping to above. That Piltdown Man fraud sounds really terrible. And did you read the section about Piltdown Man?

[CarolinaGuitarman]

"Apparently the whole evil cult of evolutionism would collapse without Piltdown Man to sustain it."

Agreed. Darwin used it extensively, saying it was the *backbone of my theory*. That and Haeckel's drawings (which came out in 1874).

Actually, he'd be in better keeping with his creationist company if he refused to back up his claims and instead offered lame excuses.

[Dimensio]

Are you saying that Piltdown Man might not be real? The whole of evolutionism could collapse! And people might start going to church and stop being atheists!

[PatrickHenry]

Please keep quiet about Piltdown Man! If the word ever got out that our only evidence of evolution is bogus, the whole game would be over. I sure hope the creationists don't learn about it.

[Thatcherite]

If only Darwin had shared the design of his time-machine with us, instead of poking around at finches with barnacles on them.

[Thatcherite]

I mentioned Piltdown Man once, but I think I got away with it.

[PatrickHenry]

Just don't slip up again. It would create a bigger flap than the Da Vinci Code.

[PatrickHenry]

Another prime coming up, but it's not a big one.

[Senator Bedfellow]

small prime.
