Well yes, the theory of Evolution is an unproven theory. If it were proven it would be a "Law". The fact still remains that there is more than enough evidence to support the theory, and Evolution itself (the actual process) is a fact. You should refute his argument with the fact that ID is also an "unproven" theory, and that there is no evidence for ID like there is for Evolution. The theory also lacks the evidence of the designer, which means it is incomplete.

Accordingly you could say about any theory that it is not proven.
You know what?
1+1=2 is at the base of science, whithout it there exists no measurement of any physical entity.
Well,1 plus what 1 equals two? Eggs, dogs, blondes,? what ?
If one goes down to atoms ,in the search of two identical entities.
they are also nonidentical as are any subatomical particles and if you arrive at quantums you will drown in the uncertainity principle.
What I'm trying to say is that every theory and even the most simple of laws have to be simplified to a certain amount in order to be accepted.
That's the case with the evolutionary theory of life it has it's simplifications but it certainly needs no designer in order to be proven at this time of our understanding of nature.
May be that in future evolution may prove to change itself in a higher order of evolution ..only God knows.
