Discounting other theories unjustifiably, or overusing a particular theory past it’s explanation is one sin. Not understanding a theory is another however. I think that many people who draw such false conclusions still base them on a pretty clear understanding of the core of evolutionary theory, i.e. mutation, gene exchange, selection, reproduction.
I agree with your sentiment, but I find myself constantly reminded by this site that the majority of the world is stupider than we give them credit for.
