Why Lie?
Excellent question, Flea.
Why lie about the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics proving evolution is false when in fact it does not?
Why lie about some mythical flud when all evidence is to the contrary?
Why lie about the supernova data by invoking absurd concepts like “mature light?”
Why lie about the universe being only 6,000 years old when all evidence is to the contrary?
Why lie about dinosaurs on some mythical ark?
Why lie about radiometric dating and the fine structure constant and the speed of light?
Why lie about Einstein’s belief in your god when his own words prove otherwise?
Why lie about there being a god?
Excellent question, Flea.

Re: I appreciate your reply, AZPaul3.
This thread however has nothing to do with creation or Intelligent design. It has to do with lies in evolution. Please stick to the topic and not try to take us down a rabbit hole. I was looking for defense of what you believe not an attack at what others may believe. We can post up another thread on creation or ID somewhere else. Besides, arguing what may be lies in creation or ID does not erase them from evolution.
I am sorry, Flea. I misunderstood the shallowness of your OP.
From your examples I thought maybe we were talking more broadly of willful misrepresentation of facts. Like misrepresenting a few instances of human foibles in perpetrating fraud as ample justification to throw out a proposition or even an entire discipline regardless of the overwhelming body of other verified facts and a great preponderance of other efficacious evidence. I thought we might be talking about that kind of lying.
Having been embarrassed by this I will content myself with slipping back into lurk-n-learn mode.
Again, Flea, I apologize for misinterpreting the intent of your OP.
