An forensic expert can serve as a witness only if the matter falls within his competence.

I agree, and evolution is a forensic science.

No, evolution is a broad category that has so many elements that many different specialists can testify about it. My personal objection is the claim that Darwin’s theory has the same sourt of explanatory power as say Newton’s theory of gravitation. If you read the book, the theory is just not there. There is basically an assertion backed by a careful marshalling of evidence based on personal observation. More like a legal brief than principia mathematica.
