Young vs Old
How about the 'evidence' that the rocks from Mt. St. Helens are 2 million years old?
I guess this is a bit of a catch all topic. But that's no excuse for letting it wander everywhere. For that reason I suggest you propose this as a topic in Dates and Dating.
I'm afraid you will find:
1)This is a reasonable consequence of the nature of the process. To ask this indicates you are critising something you know very little about.
2)This is an example of creationist dishonesty.
How about the fradulent data Ernst Haeckel decided to make up (with 'proof') about how fetal organisms all go through prior stages in evolution before being born?
There is a whole topic on this. You may add to it if you want.
Why are Haeckel's drawings being taught in school?
As for your last you will need to quote the details before it can be discussed.
There is a thread for evolutionist dishonesty but we haven't had much in there. Please add to it.

The only pathway?
That the scientific worldview and its most ardent members believe the only pathway to truth is theirs.
FOr "truths" about the natural world what other pathway would you suggest? How would your pathway be better? If two different individuals hold different views on the "truth" about some aspect of the natural world how would they use your approach to pick between them? How would others discern which had the "better" (more likely to be "true" ) view?
