What do you make of this?:

Most Published Research Findings May Be False

Who is warping, twisting, and misrepresenting science in their arguments?

Here's an example:

The hobbits are in a class all of their own, say scientists March 04, 2005

From the article:

HOBBITS, the nickname for the little human relative first discovered last year, were not Homo sapiens but a separate species, analysis of its brain has confirmed.

We now have research that shows these people were "modern":

New 'Hobbit' disease link claimFriday, 23 September 2005

The researchers say their findings strongly support an idea that the 1m- (3ft-) tall female skeleton from Indonesia is a diseased modern human.

And you wonder why the general public is skeptical of the claims evolutionists and scientists make.

Actually, if you read the article, you will see that it pertains to the statistical analysis of epidemiological and medical studies, not science research in general. I made my points when that thread was current on FR. But then again, anti-science sentiments run deep in the creationist camp so anything else that can be warped to their agenda will be warped.
