I would say I can’t prove it which is exactly the point,I said creationism, not christianity.

So you're saying that Creationism can be proved while Christianity can't. How does your understanding of Creationism differ from Christianity? In what particulars does Creationism differ significantly from the Biblical account of creation??

Also, what is the proof you have about evolution.

There are a number of respected scientific web sites explaining evolution and the evidence behind it - fossil evidence with several dating methods, natural selection which can be modeled by artificial selection and breeding experiments, observational evidence of responses to environment, and the fact that we share DNA with other living things but most closely with members of the ape family.

Note that there are still holes in the evidence, which further scientific discovery must fill, perhaps modifying our understanding. However, there is still a mass of evidence in favor of evolution - the current theory best matches the evidence we have.

I have yet to hear any compelling evidence that Creationism is credible.

No! I’m saying none of it can be proved.

By respected webb site I suppose they are respected because they support your contention.

fossil evidence

I know of no fossil supporting evolution that could not just as well support other theories

artificial selection and breeding experiments,

Every living organism shares some DNA with every other living thing this does not mean one is evolving into the other. Find an example where one species became another. i,e. Two cats mated and produced a dog.
