My problem with it exactly. If you skip the complicated bits, it's easy to believe. I guess I can't complain. Most people find it hard to believe in God because they want to understand the complicated parts first. The difference is with science, the truth stand on those complicated building blocks, and if they are questionable, so is the rest of the theory. The genetics doesn't work. I don't like to throw articles around, but since I have to back up my doubts, read: http://www.carm.org/evolution/evodds.htm
And how can you defend it if you don't know how or even whether it works? It is easy to say "everything with 2 eyes and 4 legs must be related". How does that "must be" differ from me saying it "must be" created?
As I have said before, for all we know God did employ some kind of evolution in His process of creation.
I'm not one of those people who think you have to choose "either God or evolution". But since I understand the kind of reality presented by belief, I do want to find out where "evolution" becomes a belief system rather than a set of facts, and make people aware that they at least don't have any reason not to believe.
