Provide some proof of this assertion, or withdraw it. It's easy to lob phony charges, but you must back up such a stong statement.

Gladly! Here's a few instances of mis-interpreted or manufactured evidence by evolutionists: Haekl's drawings, peppered moth, Piltdown man, Peking Man, Nebraska Man. Need more?

"Gladly! Here's a few instances of mis-interpreted or manufactured evidence by evolutionists: Haekl's drawings, peppered moth, Piltdown man, Peking Man, Nebraska Man. Need more?"

1) Haeckel's drawing are not in text books anymore, and his biogenic law has not been believed by scientists for over 100 years. Darwin didn't agree with it. There IS evidence in vertebrate embryology for common descent though.

2) The peppered moth IS a valid example of natural selection working. It was not a fraud nor was it wrong, despite creationist lies to the contrary.

3) Piltdown Man was disproved by scientists many decades ago and has not been taught nor accepted as an ancestor in for many decades. In fact, there was never a consensus that it was real. Another creationist lie.

4) Peking Man is a real fossil. There is no hoax; there are a number of specimens from this species,

5) Nebraska Man was NEVER accepted as a hominid. It was NEVER accepted by science. It was NEVER taught as such. This is one of the most egregious lies made by creationists. It was a mistake that was corrected before it ever made it to the scientific journals.

You will need to do a lot better than these pathetic creationist lies.
