If the flies are separated for many lifecycles they cannot breed when put back together because they have evolved differently

    Actually, many people use fruit flies to argue AGAINST Darwinian evolution. No Fruit Fly Evolution Even after 600 Generations http://www.icr.org/article/no-fruit-fly-...

    Many people - perhaps most - have no idea what evolution is and what it is not.

    Denial runs high in the uneducated.

    Because they choose to deny. Also, one can argue whether it is truly evolution when all you are playing with is the overt character of a population rather than the genetic composition of the basic life-form.
