Haeckel's embryo drawings is the only other one I know of.

I recommend the article Steven Jay Gould wrote on the Haeckel mess.
If Haeckel claimed that he was entitled to "simplify" his drawings in such a crude and misleading way does not make his claim sound. http://www.findarticles.com/...109/60026710/p1/article.jhtml---- There are also other frauds like the bird/dino fossil found in China recently that was quickly discovered to be a fake. Because a scientist happened to purchase the other side of the fossil plate and found the picture rather different. But this is more of a fraud perpetrated ON evolutionists. It just raises the question of... how many other frauds are there undetected? This particular detection was only due to a very fortuitous event.

Oh and another point. Even if the Haeckel drawings were just very bad drawings, purporting to show how ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny, then how come they have been foisted on students for nearly 100 years after being recognized so???!!! That in itself is pretty fraudulent in my book.

quote: Well then, nuff said, no? This thread was opened up to list the frauds. It has not been opened up to discuss what I believe, so I must demur for another time, tempting tho it may be to have such a showcase! As for me "accusing everyone here of paranoia" -- where in the world DO you get your information, MrH?

Nah... everybody deserves one warning... why waste time with bluffers?
quote: Exactly. That is what I meant. And I agree with you, there are too many areas in the society at large where the incentive to cheat seems to be built in. And then people wonder when the scandals are uncovered... It's a no brainer. MrH: Can you provide a cogent and coherent argument as to why I should continue talking with you after you impugn my integrity?

Gasp, Sylas, here I been on a roll as the enemy of all reason and you rush in to ruin my reputation! Nooooo!
Hey, thanks. I guess sanity still exists in the crazy ol' world of ours! Will be looking forward to more of your posts. The details of the story are very interesting. The F is for fake article says that concern about fakes is real. Here are a few sentences from it: Many early palaeontologists saw nothing wrong with adding a missing bone or two. Both the American Museum of Natural History and the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh acquired fossil skeletons of Apatosaurus with skulls from different dinosaurs in the 1880s. But the prices that well-preserved Chinese bird fossils fetch have made faking extremely profitable. Over the past twenty years, says Derstler, "adhesives and fake rock have become very easy to make and very difficult to spot." "The whole commercial market for fossils has gotten riddled with fakery," complains Martin. [This message has been edited by Tamara, 02-19-2004]

I recently saw a diagram claiming that the holy 5 of my remembered classification were redone: instead of fish, amphibian, liz, bird, and mammal we now have only 4 with the birds put in with the lizards. Hmm... Does that make sense? I don't want to seem an old fogey holding on to tradition for tradition's sake but somehow this just does not feel right...

From post 29:
"I contacted farmers and asked if they'd seen anything with the body of a bird and a tail of a dinosaur. A lot of them have got private stores of fossils and I thought maybe we'll be lucky and somebody will have something similar."
He did get lucky. A local farmer who was involved also in fossil collecting did have something similar... similar right down to small cracks and marks on the rock.---- Hello? Fortuitous event calling out to Brisbane! Hello? Earth to Doris?

You know, Sylas, I've been thinking... maybe this person's strategy is just to attack regardless of what is said? I've run into that before online... basically a way to waste the opponent's time with endless unsupported counterclaims or accusations.
