When a secular establishment discovers a mistake it readjusts itself accordingly and we all benefit from now knowing what is most likely to be true.
When a fundamentalist establishment finds out it makes a mistake it lies, blackmails, shrieks hysterically and refuses to move an inch.
Why should we not trust those who pursue truth if not more than any less than those who don't care if what they teach is true or not?
The fact remains those who used this tactic to deceive knew they did it and they let it go for years, so what else is out there that is being hidden so it can be taught as real evidence. You all don't seem to understand what was done is as bad as what you say Christians are doing. No one wins on either side when deception is used.

Considering that as a gay man many Christians believe I should be put to death as a Satanist I think getting a few facts about a skull wrong pales in comparison quite frankly.
The scientists admitted they were mistaken and made improvements, this is something believers never do. That's why we're not mad about the scientists getting it wrong, they've admitted it. I don't see any apologies circulating regarding young earth creationism and the utter stupidity behind it.
There is a side winning GC and it has been for some decades now, but it's not yours.
