He's not there..... but if you ever find some actual evidence be sure to come back and let us know.
Well now, think about it. An elephant would probably leave behind a giant pile of dung, and you'd know it had been in the room. God left behind... the Bible. That's an almost perfectly apt analogy!
"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."
