Talkorigins has a good response to a number of objections raised regarding the peppered moth study. Not that I expect any creationist to actually do anything more than dismiss anything at TO as "propaganda". Creationists can't analyze the counterclaims objectively for fear of being in a position where they might have to actually admit a mistake.

More discussions of the science behind the Peppered Moth research, and why the creationist version (and creationist accusations of "fraud") are a great example of fraud and misrepresentation *by* creationists, not by scientists:
The story of the peppered moth

FINE TUNING THE PEPPERED MOTH PARADIGM

Moonshine: Why the Peppered Moth Remains an Icon of Evolution

LETTER: Charges of fraud misleading

I invite readers to learn the full story, and then compare it against the gross misrepresentations and omissions of creationist "Full Court"'s version above...

Trying to "learn" about science from anti-evolution creationists is like trying to "learn" about conservatism from Michael Moore and Cindy Sheehan -- and for exactly the same reasons.
