Dear
evofreak; my friend:
1. It's
always self-reviewing scientists who uncover hoaxes. By that means, the real honest research results are kept that way. Peer-review, it's called. Look it up and study it.
2. By comparison, whenever a money-grubbing dishonest prankster who is selling some faked religious artifact
(those ICA stones come to mind...) shows up, all the Christians circle him when the inevitable attacks come, like a Musk-Ox herd protecting it's young. Fellow Christians, even the bad ones (OMG!)
must be protected at all costs.
And there goes your credibility, BTW.
3. You didn't look up
all the
established and highly
credible scientific investigations.
(Of course, that would take you years..) To be fair (OMG!) you'd have to show us an equal sampling of
credible cases, as well as a fair and total count of
all the proven, credible and well-documented fossil studies, as well as the number of proven hoaxes.
Better get busy, but frankly, I can save you the time if you trust me.
We win, hands down. By a massive margin.

If you don't trust me, then here's some starters for you, the first two from honest Christians. This was easy, on the net. Took me all of 1 minute, and I didn't even selectively sort.

Well, the rest is up to you. You can lead a horse to water, etc. To read, learn, recant and accept that most all of science's human beings are not evil and diabolical, but are, in fact honest, self-regulating, well-read and educated, and the
sole reason for our vast accumulation of credible knowledge.
But Christianity? Historically? And as you demo in your troll-post here? Not so much.
