Weather forecasts are good for MAYBE a week. But scientilutionists claim to know what was going on billions of years ago!

Are you implying that because meteorology is not very sophisticated technologically, we should disregard all the evidence that supports both micro-evolution and macro-evolution? Why dose that seem like a good idea to you? Meteorology and biology do not have a lot in common.
You try to make it seem like "SCIENCE" is just one big thing that is hugely intra-connected and not divided into smaller, separate groups. Unfortunately for you, it IS divided into smaller separate groups.
(Also, why didn't you post this in the BIOLOGY section of Yahoo Answers? If you re-post it there, a real scientist will be able to answer you. But if you're afraid that they'll have a good answer for why evolution seems to be right, then don't re-post it.)
I'd like to add that many other people seem to be making this mistake. Some are saying that some nutritionists were wrong, other saying that the universe resulting from the Bing Bang is crazy. Somehow those two ideas lead them to not even look at the strong evidence that biology, which is DIFFERENT from meteorology and also different from nutritionists, is right in that instance.
Isn't it possible that biology is up to par (as you can see from the evidence of evolution) even if some totally separate sciences are not up to par yet?

The predictions made by weather forecasters have not had a great deal of success. The predictions made by evolutionary theory have had a mind blowingly phenomenal amount of success. I therefore do *not* trust current weather forecasting techniques to give me the day's weather with 100% accuracy, but since no prediction ever made by the theory of evolution has ever been wrong I trust it fully.

This is true, but priests are no better at predicting the weather than scientists. In fact, they are quite worse.
Important fact: evolution does not attempt to explain the origin of life.

Since the origin of life happened in the past, it cannot be said to be "predicted." The verb "predict" is from the Latin meaning "to say before."

Answer is scientists do not "predict" the origins. They study and observe the evidence then produce theories to explain the evidence.

Evolution has nothing to do with the origins of life. I think you need to address your question to abiogenesists. Evolution only describes ongoing change in already living organisms.

Right on !!! I love it, you actually used logic to come to a logical conclusion.
The scienctist told us to eat more carbs and less fat; today we have more diabetes and obessity in the country then ever before. Now they tell us to eat a balanced diet.
Science, can you trust it with your soul for all eternity???????????????????????
THAT'S A BIG QUESITON.

Weather changes daily and can you use your faith to predict it?
