"Intimately acquainted" is an oxymoron, too. "Etimology" should have two "y"s. It has little to do with recognizing figures of speech but much to do spelling. But I digress.
You remain a champion of the vapid pursuit of knowledge, as if evolution is real science. A fraction of the theory is scientifically demonstrable in real time. The bulk of it is like astrology: It'll say anything you want it to. Well, you're entitled to your opinion, too. You are entitled to believe in a consensus of science that will rule at all times and in all places. Reality will become apparent eventually.
Two dictionaries yield the example "fully acquainted", which isn't a whit different. The degree of aquaintence is not implied in the dictionary definition. Why don't you do some research before your foot disappears into your mouth down to the knee?

We don't consult loud civilians on the subject of what is a science, and what is not--we consult scientists.
A fraction of the theory is scientifically demonstrable in real time.
The exact same thing is true of geology, and most of astronomy since Hubble.
The bulk of it is like astrology: It'll say anything you want it to.
Hogwash. Critical tests of astrology reveal it's predictions to be random noise. Critical field tests of evolutionary theory (like what one of those "missing links" is found) Have been highly confirmatory by morphological continuity of existing data with new data. You can't make it true that peering into the past isn't acceptable science, just by finding an endless supply of new ways to say it. Again, we don't consult loud civilians with an ax to grind on this subject--we consult scientists about how science works.
Well, you're entitled to your opinion, too. You are entitled to believe in a consensus of science that will rule at all times and in all places. Reality will become apparent eventually.
Yea, well, except for the entitled part--which I'm sure will disappear as soon as you and your ilk gain enough political power--I'm sure the Inquisition said the exact same thing to Galileo.
