No-one's saying we can't create imitation fossils. We're saying that most fossils aren't artificial and, given their abundance, worldwide distribution and discovery over centuries, are unlikely to have been installed by armies of paleontologists.

dinosaurs never existed. The dinosaur fossils were created by paleontologist scam artists.

It's a fossil of a once living thing, just like the dinosaur fossils. Dinosaur fossils aren't in any separate category, they're fossils like any other.
I dare you to make yourself a fake dino skull and take it into a museum for money, seriously I dare you.
Not all fossils are permineralized.

SAND AND CEMENT EQUALS SANDSTONE.[/QUOTE]
no, sand and cement equals concrete.

OMG, evolution and fossils are a hoax? I'm gonna have to somehow break the news gently to my sister-in-law that they are getting a PHD in a sham, they are probably planting fossils as we speak!

I'm not sure that's true. Cement is made from calcined lime and clay. Sandstone contain quartz and feldspar (aluminosilicates of potassium, sodium, and calcium). So I'm not sure they have the exact same chemical properties. Do you have an argument contrary to this?
Well, I guess if you take sandstone and make it into clay and then use it for cement then you could get similar compositions, but that's kinda silly to prove sandstone to be cement by using sandstone to make the cement and then make "sandstone" from it...
They won't check to see if you have any credentials, or even if you have any supporting evidence?
They don't care?
They will conduct no tests if you claim (not prove) that you are a paleontologist?
Tell me, have you tried this? But for you to assert these things as true, surely you have done it yourself?
I have no clue as to where you live, but how about you make a "dinosaur bone fossil," then go to a major museum (such as the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, Illinois, USA), tell them that you are a paleontologist and that you found this bone in some rock formation famous for dinosaur fossils (for example, the Morrison formation, which is found in the Rocky Mountain states...be sure not to be too specific about exactly WHERE in that formation you found it, or when...or where you're employed as a paleontologist, or if you had a permit to dig for fossils there, and so on...).
Keep your cell phone camera running, and post it here on RF.
It should be good for some laughs!
Advanced technology allows those in the profession to tell when a fossil has been faked. Don't think it hasn't been tried.
(but remember? They're all in on the conspiracy to create fake dinosaur bones, so not really...

Metal, NOT sandstone.

Coal, not sandstone
Fossils are found in lots of different metamorphic and sedimentary strata, and can be made of many different things, but actual sandstone -- not!

I'm forced to assume you are completely unaware of the "dragon bone" market in China, where people sell powered "dragon bones". A market that has existed in one form or another, and has been using fossils as proof of their existence for thousands of years. Or that the Greeks and Romans likely saw these massive bone formations and that is what bred some of their myths and legends.
Our history with fossils goes way, way back. We just thought they were much more recent than it would eventually turn out.

Now I just feeling silly being to hard on myself for not knowing that Alpha Centauri was the closest star to earth (besides the sun) when I was in 6th grade.
After seeing this forum, I feel like I wasn't as dumb as I previously thought.
M still hoping that it's a joke forum.

I for one am keeping an open mind on this
Most alleged ancient fossils are found near the surface of earth, and are dated by the age of the rocks near where they are found. If a modern-day animal was to die and its remains found in the same location, would it be dated the same age of the alleged ancient fossil?
The dinosaur industry should be investigated and questions need to be asked. I am unaware of any evidence or reason for absolutely believing dinosaurs ever were alive on earth.
During the nineteenth century a new world view of evolution was being pursued by then influential people such as Darwin and Marx. During this era of thought the first dinosaur discoveries were made. Were these discoveries "made" to try to make up for inadequacies in the fossil record for the theory of evolution?

Not gonna lie, I thought you were speaking Russian or German to test me at first.
No but if you have evidence for a conspiracy I'd like to hear it.
Why should Darwin risk everything to propose such a thing especially having been a christian most his life? Every time science finds something new the religious zealots get all bent out of shape over everything from a round earth to evolution.
Its not just dinosaurs in the fossil record, we have indications from single celled organisms progressing over time to muti-cellular organisms. Nobody is doing themselves any favors by looking down on science and new findings. And it isn't just paleontology, all branches of science are in agreement even experiments even by institutions who would rather prove god than science.
