" Evolutionary theory is accepted by virtually all biologists, and most scientists..." That is nonsense. I know quite a number of biologists, a number of whom are active in genetic reasearch in a leading firm, (in which we hold stock, and go to stockholders open house days) and most of them are of the opinion that the question of evolution is irrelevant to their work.
"And scientists is whom we consult on the subject of what is and isn't science."
No comment necessary! ;o)

Even if this is true, the point was whether they accepted evolution, not whether it was integral to their work. You moved the goalposts.
The fact remains most scientists (by a large majority) accept evolution. Only a tiny percentage reject it.

Uh huh. How many would that be by actual count, and of those who have voiced an opinion to you that it's irrelevant, how many think it incorrect, and what do you imagine is the ratio of a few of your acquaintences, to the number of working biologists who embrace darwin's theory? You certainly know how to push poppycock with assured air of confidence.
