Why should we accept any premise of Darwinism?

I'm not sure why you're asking me this but I'm happy to offer an answer.
Darwin's model of evolution was a good start but it lacked a key ingredient.
It failed to explain punctuated equilibrium.
I can explain it very well using the pole flip hypothesis.
The pole flip hypothesis goes back to the 1940s post WW2.
I've done several podcast guest presentation on it.
Once Bitten 514 with Daniel Prince covers it.
Episodes 2 and 3 of the Red Tail Hawk series on the Bitcoin Consciousness podcast with Caleb are my most recent, up to date presentations on it.
The pole flip hypothesis explains a number of things including the 7 day creation story and Noah's deluge in Genesis.
Pole flips explain stratigraphy, the Beresovka mammoth, the huge granite boulders native to the Alps that have been found at the same elevation 50-80 miles across the Swiss valley from their source location, the evidence of glaciation at equatorial latitudes, the presence of ringless frozen prehistoric trees at Svalbard/Spitzbergen in the Arctic circle, the presence of coal beds in Antarctica, the present of a tropical coral reef in the Arctic circle, the fact that there are uninterrupted signs of evolution for the past 12000 years at both the Galapagos Islands and the Malay Peninsula which happen to be antipodal locations on the Earth from one another, and more.
Like the Ptolemaic model gave way to the Copernican which gave way to the Keplerian model which gave way to the Newtonian model...you can see how these things go. We get the golf ball close to the green. Then someone gets it onto the green. Then someone putts it close to the hole, then someone taps it in. Darwinian evolution got the golf ball to the fringe of the green. If we take the pole flip hypothesis, we can chip the ball up onto the green and "dial in" the model a bit tighter.
