"Evolution is the only "widely accepted" scientific theory that continually falls apart under scrutiny. Nobody is still, today, hotly debating Einstein's Theory of Relativity, or Newton's Theories about gravity, or many, many other theories, for the simple reason that they WORK."----Actually, thats not true. Einsteins general theory of relativity presented a completely different explanation of gravity than did Newtons. Certainl Newtons theory seems to work over a certain realm of phenomenon and are still used to describe those phenomenenon, but Einstein's theory of gravity is different. There are other alternate theories being asserted to explain a whole host of scientific information, though most of them dont show much promise of becoming widely accepted currently. There is still a big push to combine quantum theory with earlier scientific theories. Like Einstein, many scientists find quantum theory with its probabilistic nature and its admission of inability to know anything with complete accuracy inherently unacceptable and are actively seeking alternate explanations. Evolution just fails more glaringly.

From a 'scientific' viewpoint though, it is often not the failure of a theory that we're concerned with, but the success. A theory may fail in many ways, but if it is successful even over a limited range it can be useful.
