Faking itRakky writes, "We've all done it. From qualifications to orgasms, everyone likes to play 'let's pretend' once in a while."
So when have you faked it? Did you get away with it? Or were your mendacious ways exposed?

I.D. != ScienceI know Ma'am Nature can usually be trusted to come up with a system or design that 'just works' and tend to go with that, but she obviously has no sense of aesthetics. Case in point: the male doo-dad. HR Gigers 'Alien' re-upholstered in pink!
Back on-topic, decades of cross-referenced, peer-reviewed and demonstrable science simply cannot win in a 'debate' which very rapidly sinks into a shouting match between 'bigots' and 'heathens'. The lunatic sky-being worshipers drown everyone else out. That's simultaneously the greatest strength and greatest weakness of 'proper' science; you don't need to bleat loudly; just engage your brain. Whereas the loopy god-botherers put their frontal lobes in neutral, proceeding to scream and shout until everyone else gets bored and buggers off.
