I completely agree with everything in this post of yours Rob but I'd like to focus on this bit in particular.
Read this again, Pubes. Think about it. No matter how much doubt you cast on the theory of evolution I'm sure it pales in comparison to the challenges brought by sincere scientists every day. If you or they ever succeed in discrediting it altogether you will not have moved any right thinking person one step closer to design/creation nonsense. Not having a settled theory a phenomenon is never justification for invoking magic.
I'll triple down on this.
Though I disagree(maybe, maybe not) a little with the "challenges brought by sincere scientists every day" part.
I think science does a good job explaining things that used to be explained with mysticism. Which can help break the grip theism has on some people. I don't think scientists have much to say at all about the actual existence of god. It's non-falsifiable, so it's not really a scientific pursuit.
