Incorrect, the process itself (the "how") is not understood and it's disputed as to what that process is. What you are describing as "scientific fact" isn't the how but the end result. The end result of evolution is not disputed - i.e. there exists a process, about which there is much dispute, and the result is that living organisms change and develop into new species over time.

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK


"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
