Morning Scepticism: Creationism

Biologists and philosophers of biology have been exploring the conceptual foundations and empirical evidence for over 150 years of evolutionary theory, shifts in understanding brought on by critical examination and through massive amounts of observations. Yet many theists (even well-educated ones) seem so quick to pronounce the flaws of "Darwinism" as if it was riddled with mistakes even a child should be able to spot. If the mistakes are so obvious, could it be a flaw in the understanding of those who study evolution... or those wishing evolution to die?
