Many Christians are convinced of the theory of evolution because of the weight of evidence that supports it, built up over the last 150 years . . I have met some of them. They have to do some mental gymnastics to shoe-horn it into christian theology but seem to manage to their own satisfaction.
On the other hand I have yet to meet an atheist who does not agree with the theory of evolution, but they are probably out there.
Being an atheist implies nothing about a persons beliefs regarding the origin of life on earth, other than that they will probably not subscribe to any particular religions take on that issue.
In that sense, coming to an atheist forum and asking for facts about evolution is a bit like going to a mathematics forum and asking for facts about geography.

Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful. — Edward Gibbon
