Every now and then you get one or two theists who sign up with the intent of trolling and it can take a while for people to give up on them. As long as they keep it to one or two topics it's not an issue, but if they start to infect other threads then it's time to shut them down. The repetitive nature and empty rhetoric of the OP makes it easy to ignore the topic or to skim it quickly and move on.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
