It's the point about accepting forensics but rejecting evolution all over again.
Do you mean accepting genetics but rejecting evolution? Darwin WAS NOT the father of Genetics. In fact he never even read Mendel's book nor did Darwin have any interest in talking to or corresponding with Mendel. THAT should tell you something. If genetics was so very important to Darwin's theory then why did he miss it? I accept forensics because of Mendel's genetics, not because of Darwin's theory of evolution.

Darwin did not "miss" genetics, his theory was incomplete and he recognized it as he was not sure what the mechanism of inheritance is. Genetics completes evolution and one does not work with the other.

AV1611VET: How do we know that the flight crew knows how to fly this plane?
Flight Attendant: They are trained experts and have been doing this for many years.

Skywriting: I think these guys are dopes. I checked the flight logs. All the maps they are using are flat. The flight details include "sunrise" and "sunset" times all through the flight plan! The Pilots are clearly flat-earthers. Swell. I'm getting off. They'll drive us straight into the ground with their flat earth language.

"SPLIT ROCK: No, No. They are modern guys. They only TALK as if the world was flat."

Skywriting: OK. I pray you're right.

You can actually build an airplane. NO one has ever gotten evolution to work in the lab. Look at the fruit fly. You start with a fruit fly, you end up with a fruit fly. Unless you think a fly with a leg growing out of his head is useful.

According to the theory of evolution, an evolved fruit fly is still a fruit fly. You cannot escape your heredity. Try and understand evolution before critisizing it.

Cute, but sorry to disappoint you guys...

1. Modern pilots and flight engineers do not use 2 dimentional maps.
2. Flight details do not include the terms "sunset" and "sunrise."

1. Please point out my error. See any 3-D glasses in the house? Or a globe?

2. "Originally, NASA had scheduled Endeavour to remain in Houston for two nights, before departing for points west. If the weather forecast cooperates and the ferry flight begins at sunrise on Tuesday (Sept. 18), the shuttle will now..."

Sorry, but I don't see any 2-D maps in that cockpit. Perhaps you meant to post a different link?

OK... you got me there! I stand corrected on the sunrise/ sunset part.
