Secondly, why do "scientists" continually advance a theory they SEE has holes in it? I thought that if a hypothesis has big glaring mistakes that scientists were supposed to trash it and start over?
Because thats how it works. Theories aren't intended to be perfect, nor will they ever be.
There are LOTS of holes in their theory but they continue to advance it LIKE ITS A FACT.
Stop that! Researchers do not advance them like facts. Every theory is open to peer review and challenges.
When ANY science programme starts talking about millions of years I cringe. They don't KNOW that. They just assume it is so, and present it like it's so, and people are buying into it like it is truth.
Ahhh... the marketing of "science" on your friendly Discovery channel. Warning: what you see and hear on television is not a true representation of the work being done by the research communities. I see the problem you are experiencing, now. To correct this, please return to school. Please read books. Do not pass "go", do not collect $200.
