Learning more about Jehovah.

Why are they magically discovered then in only last century? There can be many motivations for this.

"Dinosaur" bones sell for a lot of money at auctions. It is a profitable business. There is pressure for academics to publish papers. Museums are in the business of producing displays that are popular and appealing. Movie producers and the media need to produce material to sell to stay in business. The mainstream media loves to hype alleged dinosaurs finds. Much is to be gained by converting a bland non-dinosaur discovery, of a bone of modern origin, into an impressive dinosaur find, and letting artists' interpretations and imaginations take the spotlight, rather than the basic boring real find. There are people who desire and crave prestige, fame and attention. There is the bandwagon effect and crowd behaviour. And then there are people and entities pursuing political and religious agendas.

Wow.
Paranoia will destroy ya.
I bet you look under your bed at night for ancient aliens. :<(

Cheesh! Do some research prior to subjecting yourself for ridicule for your paranoia.

It strikes me as unbelievable that over a period a couple hundred years, tens of thousands, to perhaps hundreds of thousands of people have studied paleontology, dug up fossils, studied them in great detail, published articles and books and reports, attended meetings, put their findings on public display....and yet...

and yet...

No one's conscience has ever gotten the better of them, no one ever began their studies and then discovered to their horror that it was all a sham, no one ever realized the fame and potential fortune that could come their way by revealing this dishonesty, no one has ever changed their mind about participating in this fraud and come forward to reveal what is actually going on: wholesale fabrication of fossils (using, apparently, nothing but sandstone:rolleyes:) and the creation of a whole body of knowledge and profession from imagination and thin air...and faked sandstone (!) fossils.

And yet, recent research shows that a large-scale conspiracy would founder and be revealed in just a few years, at most: http://phys.org/news/2016-01-equation-large-scale-conspiracies-quickly-reveal.html

Which is more likely:
1) a successful centuries-long conspiracy, or
2) that a proposed centuries-long conspiracy--lacking any solid evidence (except for sandstone fossils:rolleyes:) or any clear substantial motive--is actually false.

The OP of this thread has made a claim; the evidence presented is so amateurish and flimsy that it cannot be taken seriously by anyone with any knowledge or experience in the field. The reasoning of the OP is clearly flawed. The OP refuses to accept any of the valid evidence to the contrary of their proposal, and continues to repeat the same ridiculous arguments.

While this has been somewhat entertaining, I think it's time to move on...:p

Nah, but you are right up there with the "Earth is flat" folks. Despite all concrete evidence to the contrary, you hold to misguided theories instead.

Wonderful & masterful use of straight language.
Easily understood and truthful.
(well by most people. The flat earthers are in a league all by themselves.)

Learning more about Jehovah.

My signature line " Learning more about Jehovah" might lead some to believe I am
what I may not be. The signature line has NOTHING to do with any particular denomination
but simply indicates I have a desire to learn more about this entity we call "God".
Jehovah is God's name.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jehovah

Perhaps arguable but I often refer to the God of my understanding by
His name.
This does NOT connect me with any particular denomination.
But if some feel it does then that's o.k. with me.
As an aside I have a profound belief in a "God of my understanding".
That said I have two science degrees and find NO conflict between science
and my spiritual self.
Another aside comment.
I have great respect for Jehovah's Wintesses and wish ALL people were driven by
a higher moral standard.
(not saying other denominations have less dedicated members.)

Why do such beliefs persist and exist even today? Still? And not just the "evolution is wrong" part but the selective nature of choosing what science you like and what science you don't like.

Because of the atheist agenda, ie, disprove the god we hate.
Secondarily, there's all that government money heading our way.
We even expanded into fake moon landings, fake galaxies, & fake biology.

And you don't have to be an atheist to get lumped into the "atheist agenda.":facepalm:
Well, of course not! It's because we blindly just accept whatever scientists and other experts say and ignore the protests of God and his is designated representatives on earth because Satan really has hold of us and we're all going to burn forever in Hell because we won't accept the obvious truth because it's always presented in such a whacked-out way that we don't recognize it for what it is because we're blinded by the Devil who is controlling the Government and all those evil Atheists and their Godless Agenda that includes the Big Bang, Evolution, Socialism, Liberalism and the LGBTQ Conspiracy...sorry, had to stop and take a breath there...
