What tests are you referring to? You have not quoted any sources that back up your claims about evolution being a "clear fact." Instead, you are simply telling the forum what you have chosen to believe.
Quote:FYI: There is no such thing as "evolution fact." There is only evolution theory, and theories are merely attempts at explaining why a phenomena occurred. Or didn't you realize that?
Saying evolution is just a theory is like saying: I only have a masters degree.
In science, a theory is the highest status any hypothesis or idea can achieve. Theories are rigorously tested through peer review and other such processes that ensure they work. Thats a hell of a lot better than any creationist theory as evolution can actually be tested to see if it works.

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom
