<snip>You think it is a fact because in your worldview, there is absolutely no conceivable alternative. I am pointing out that the "facts" do not disprove my worldview.
The fact is that the vast, vast majority of experts in the fields of biology, paleontology, genetic research, medicine, etc. have looked at the evidence in their fields of expertise and found what they consider to be overwhelming evidence of evolution. The theory is also accepted by the vast majority of scientists working in other fields. You keep pulling up self-published and non-peer reviewed articles from the extra-ordinary small minority of scientist who disagree.
The sources you choose say it all. You won't accept any alternative to intelligent design, unless there is no scientist, regardless of specialty, who disagrees with evolution. If that's where you set the bar, no one will ever change your mind because there are always one or two crazies out there in any field.
For example there are scientists who disbelieve in the lunar landings including William L. Brian, a nuclear engineer. He self-published a book about it: Moongate: Suppressed Findings of the U.S. Space Program. Should we waste time reading it? There are also historians who deny the holocaust including David Hoggan and Harry Elmer Barnes. Should we read their books?
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
