I, unlike you people, don't need to go beyond that. I don't have an agenda to push..that is probably why.
But you do have reasons. They've been presented to you numerous times. You just dismiss them out of hand on the basis that we can't rule out other means. So your "no reason" is that you do have reasons, just not ones you're obligated to agree with, due to your own pre-existing beliefs. So, your reason is that nobody can stop you from baselessly resisting the actual reasons.
But since you mention it, what is my agenda, here? How do I profit from evolution being true? I'm a fiction writer, not a biologist. Where's my stake in this, since you seem so desperate to accuse others of unfairness?
Oh, and also? You did make a positive claim, you do have a burden of proof, and you're not going to be able to skip out on it: genetic changes occur, the ball is rolling downhill. You are asserting that something will stop a process from continuing, when we have no reason to think that it will. You need evidence for that. You can't just cavalierly dismiss that like you do everything else and expect to come out of that okay.
