[[That’s like saying the existence of fake Renoir paintings undermines that artist’s actual works of art.]]

You apparently don’t understand the severity of hte situation because you appeal to an analogy that has no relevence to TOE- a fake renoir would NOT falsify real reniors because paintings by artists aren’t biologically, mathematically, naturally and chemically impossible

[[AFAIK, none of the hoaxes were perpetrated by scientists trying to buttress the TOE. Archaeraptor, for example, was created by Chinses fossil merchants trying to make a buck.]]

mmm yes, I’m sure that was their motives- all of hteir motives- greed- not to bolster- Golly, perhaps I can challenge any anticreation claims by assigning some other motives to those creationists who might have misrepresented info then? Perhaps they weren’t tryign to bolster their beliefs, but rather waged a bet with someone for profit, and hterefore it was ok that they did so because they weren’t tryign to bolster weak arguments?

Again, on hteir own, hte fakes don’t falsify soemthing but DO show hte lengths soem will go to to try to bolster soemthign htey know is in trouble-

You're assuming what you need to prove- namely, that the TOE is somehow biologically, mathematically, naturally and chemically impossible. And yet, all of the available evidence shows that evolution of species is a fact.

You're the one claiming that scientists have created hoaxes to bolster the TOE- provide some evidence of that, if you can.
