Actually groups like NASA might save a lot of research money if they designed their Mars probes with the goal of exploring what is actually there and not just looking for signs of life(evolution). The hippies now at NASA are a far cry from their forerunners.
“The germ theory of disease”
Funny thing about the germ theory is that while being minuscule in scope compared to evolution it gives birth to cure after cure month after month while “evolution scientists” only produce works of fiction. Evolution is a barren theory. Perhaps I’ll hold my breath till next year when the evolution believers get their theory finely tuned and suddenly the pent up gush of billions of years worth of understanding floods our world with technologies never before imagined, and the theory barren since 1859 suddenly gives birth to something more than eugenics, forced sterilization, atheism, and ethnic holocaust....or maybe they’ll just go on blindly looking for the missing link between their delusionally contrived theory and our divinely created universe while discovering nothing other than another year has passed and evolutionary theory is still barren.
As if.
There are whole fields that emerged out of evolutionary theory. Much of modern genetics did, and the particular field of population genetics came directly and entirely out of the effort to reconcile classical evolutionary theory with then new theories about the gene and inheritance.
Many advances in the fecund field of molecular biology have had evolution as a crucial or contributing factor behind their discovery. For instance many functionally important DNA sequences were first recognized, and only later better understood, because evolutionary analysis showed them to be conserved across evolutionary lineages.
Much of the still very incomplete but growing understanding of "junk" DNA, regulation of gene expression, and the like have such a basis. Here's a recent example where it was discovered that not just sequences or regions of the DNA have been under selective pressure, but so in a number of cases have individual nucleotides(!) scattered in non-coding, nonselected regions of the DNA.
We don't know the importance of this discovery yet because we don't know why these single loci are preserved, but they could easily have some important function which could lead to new understanding of, who knows what -- gene regulation, disease, anything. This is what evolutionary theory has done time and again: it's told scientists where to look for something interesting. These apparently functional single nucleotides almost certainly would have been overlooked, possibly forever, but for the assumption of common descent and application of more specific theories about genomic evolution.
