No I don't have any problem with forensic science...we need it....I was just pointing out that evolution could not and has not been rigorously tested as like a chemistry or physics experiment. When you mix two chemicals together and each time they create the same substance...then a hard conclusion can be made about the reaction. Not the same for forensic science.....conflicitng evidence, or lack of evidence, can really throw a monkey wrench into the deduction process.
Darwinism is loaded with said monkey wrenches....so to speak :)

It's a complex system, beacue, unlike what anti-evolutionists such as makers of Hollywood movies would show you, genes aren't wired up to follow some specific evolutionary path. Environment drives evolution as much as the gene code, and the specifics of environment cannot be calculated.
However, just because a system is complex does not mean that it cannot be generally understood. The organization of individual sand grains on a beach cannot be mathematically modelled with anything remotely resemblign precision, yet the bulk system can be understood, and the order in it processed and understood.
Similarly, when are you going to die? You probably don't know. Nevertheless, your insurance company has a decent understanding of mortality statistics. And just because you might get conked on the head tomorrow AM by a small meteorite, and thus fall well outisde what their statistics, does not mean that their stats are just guesswork.
It's like this in *all* science, even the most rigorous physics. Chaos and randomness are in evidence at all levels.
