    OK lets stop thinking in scientific method and just assume everything is possible.

    I'll just reiterate what i said earlier as nobody seems to have a clue of what evolution actually is.

    I'll start from the basics.
    Evolution is a change in the genes of a population from one generation to another. This can be observed.
    Natural selection is 'the resulting survival and reproduction of organisms due to the varying effects of environmental forces on genetically different members of a population; results in the preservation of favorable adaptations.'
    This has being observed
    Mutations are changes in DNA.
    They have being observed.

    The basic processes of evolution have being observed.

    All life are based on the same biochemistral structure. If something happens in a microorgansim then it's likely to happen in other forms of life. Why do you have such a hard time accepting that changes in a species traits can slowly lead to another species. Speciation has being observed. What is this missing link you talk of? Theirs many fossils that show the change throught the Homo genus.

    Evolution doesn't state ' A single, unicellular organism millions of years back', thats the Theory of common descent, evolution is the change in a populations genes through generation(eurgh).

    Some links
    What do you have to say about these observed speciation events?

    Science, including evolution, is NOT a belief system in any way, any more than mechanical engineering is. I don't BELIEVE my car has four cylinders, coil spring suspension and a multi-point injection system, I KNOW it does because I can pop the bonnet and look at it.

    You think that you are always right. You have been spoon fed these beliefs since your childhood and aren't open to others opinions. Creationism and god is faith and belief and evolution is science. Get it right.

    Yes there is proof to. What about pre-modern man. There are signs of evolution everywhere and if you take biology from a non-favored side on religion or evolution and the big bang you would still find there is some support to the THEORY of evolution.
