I think you might be misunderstanding: generally when arguing evolution our position isn't "what have you got that's better?" It's "your position isn't as strong as you think it is, and furthermore, disproving our position doesn't lend any additional credibility to your own." It's in answer to this false dichotomy that we atheists often see in theist evolution-deniers, where disproving evolution somehow equates, in their minds, to proving creation. When all it really would do is disprove evolution.
But then again, I haven't ever been in the same kinds of debates or arguments with you, so I don't really know, do I? Just trying to provide a bit of flavor
