I don't know about the cartoon parodying creationism, if it does so what. But I used the cartoon as more about illustrating how very much is not known, and how yet how very much some insist what is known on evolution and cosmology. Science parodies itself these fields.

Take the theory of flight.
Bernoulli's Principle played not the role they thought, and the principle of equal transit times was flat out wrong and demonstrated clearly in any flight vehicle with smoke added. I guarantee you any aircraft designed with strict adherence to these faulty scientific concepts (in the theory of flight) would not fly, so they were not. Yet this theory of flight was stated as absolute as the theory of gravity for many years.

Newtonian theory of gravity contradicted Einstein's theory, Einstein's theory needs tied together with string theory ad infinitum.

Correction

Newtonian theory of gravity contradicted by Einstein's theory, Einstein's theory needs tied together with string theory ad infinitum.

Then 30 years in the future, these are all debunked or altered by the new MyEgoUon inverted anti-quark theory. Science will be all a-ga-ga with the elegant mathematics generated for this theory

This will inferred as absolute and anything else will be laughed out of the peer review boards.

If this theory of flight was so absolute for so many years, how come all the planes could fly. This is another of your many ignorant distortions based on your scientific ignorance.

Not really. The science of evolution has improved dramatically since Darwin's time, and the science of cosmology has improved dramatically since Hubble's time, much like the theories of flight and gravity that you also reference.

You seem to be under the false impression that evolution and cosmology have not advanced since their inception. Nothing could be further from the truth. Our knowledge in both these areas have grown tremendously with the new evidence.

A more accurate statement would be that Newton's theory is a subset of Einstein's theory; Einstein's theory is a subset of string theory. Newton's theory was not rendered invalid by Einstein, only determined to be valid in a limited dynamic realm. Einstein improved Newton's theory, he didn't abolish it.

Similarly, Darwin's theory hasn't been abolished, it has merely been improved upon. Darwin had no concept of genetics, for example, but everything we have learned about genetics has only reinforced the basic precepts of evolution. Original pioneers of the Big Bang theory had no concept of inflationary theory in cosmology, either, but once again, that does not render invalid the theory, it only extends it. Yes, there are still gaps in our knowledge in various places, but not the uncrossable chasm that you seem to be portraying. Science has accomplished a lot, and I don't see any purpose in scrapping that knowledge just because it may unpalatable to some.
