Oh, but it does. It's not complete, to be sure, but there's worlds more evidence to support evolution than anything else...There's zero scientific evidence to support creationism, for example.

Put down your evo-talking-points. You talk as though there are only two options: pretend the currently known fossil record reflects what Darwinism predicts or biblical literalism interpretations of the origin of life must be true. You are making a common evo mistake - finding problems with one theory does not support or disprove another theory. Also evidence supporting evolution can NEVER disprove any theory of creation because the theory of evolution does not in any way address the creation of life.

Creationism (the plethora of theories, myths and explainations evo's like to wrap up into one bigoted term) addresses the creation of life (thus the name) - evolution has nothing to say about the origin of life so your comment is a non sequitur.

Also the "there is worlds more evidence to support [insert theory here] than anything else" is not scientific proof, it is faith. Not to mention there is pretty much zero evidence to support an evolution-extrapolated theory of the origin of life which happens to be the subject of this thread.

The irony detector must REALLY be on the fritz.
