The Central Issue
I'm not sure what Creationists hope to achieve by pushing issues like Nebraska Man and Piltdown Man, nor what evolutionists hope to achieve by defending them. No human endeavor is free of human failties, and science is no exception. The issue isn't whether evolutionists have ever perpetrated scientific misdeeds, because they most certainly have. So have Creationists.
Unless Creationists are trying to make the case for secret factories churning out fossils night and day that scientists surrepticiously slip into the ground so that they may "discover" them, focusing on the frauds has no point because there is overwhelming authentic evidence.
