You've made the various claims of evolution, now all you have to do is prove it! If you don't you can't blame other people for disagreeing.
First I may take a little issue with the word prove, but this really could be begging the question. Now if the person is just proclaiming that everything is fact, and doesn't give a reason for their claim, you might have some point, but even then I don't think saying it like that is right.
With a little bit of intellectual honesty, perhaps you might make an effort to actually study evolution. If reading is not for you, I promise you there are many YouTube videos on evolution to help you out. There are also online courses that are all about evolution, and will provide lectures related to the various evidence for evolution. Believe me, before knowing much about evolution, even as a newborn atheist, I used to think evolution was more speculation and guesswork than anything scientific, but reading and watching videos that showed how much evidence there was for evolution helped immensely. You'd be amazed how conclusive the evidence is. But again, you need intellectual honesty first, otherwise you'll just keep playing these silly games.
Wasn't really making a case against evolution, so I think that you missed the point (hint.... it's not about whether evolution is true or not).
I think that you immediately make insinuations about intellectual honest (when I said very little) says a lot though. However if you want to make a thread, I would love to see what new info you think you have, that got you all worked up.
