With regard to the theory of evolution, don't you think that those who question it should be required to present some evidence to support their questioning?

What is interesting is that there are different levels of evidence considered acceptable in different areas of life. If you don't have a clean chain of evidence, even DNA isn't admissible in a court of law.

OTOH, mistaken eyewitness identifications are fallible too.

The scientific method cannot eliminate errors, but it does give a systematic way to minimize certain errors and provide confidence in the results obtained, within limits -- and different disciplines rely on the scientific method more or less stringently.

And religious belief relies on it not at all.
