Re: Why Lie?
There is no such thing as true objectivity in science.
This isn't unique to scientists though is it? There is no such thing as true objectivity in ANYONE, whether that be a scientist, a preacher, historian, or archaeologist. We are all subject to what we will accept as being valid evidence.

Re: Archaeoraptor Liaoningensis.
It makes it hard for me to believe in any of it.
So don't believe any of it then.
What's the problem?
Why dwell on something that its hard to believe in, sounds like a great waste of time to me.

Re: Hey Coyote, Ever heard of this?
Where's the forged fossil in your example?

Re: Hey Brian
I just think that because time is such a precious thing then why spend so much of it on something you cannot bring yourself to believe, why not put your energy into something else?
What about taking a science degree and attacking this hugely erroneous theory from inside?
There must be a few prizes up for grabs to anyone who can disprove evolution, there's something worth spending time on.
The thing is, you seem to have already made up your mind about this and nothing will change it.
Good luck anyway.
