You missed the point. The "vast body of evidence" you cite was interpreted with the wish, the hope that evolution were true. For example, the marker fossils in the geologic strata prove evolution occurred, yet because we know evolution occurred, the fossils occur in certain strata. This is so dogmatic that, as often happens, when a fossil is out of place it is considered an outlier - because it doesn't conform to the theory.

It is like a religion, nay, it is part of a religion, a longstanding brotherhood, just as dogmatic as any other with evolution one of the articles of faith. Evolution is a wish, and neither you nor anyone cannot prove it to someone who has not already accepted it beforehand as the conclusion.

Correction:
Should be "can prove", not "cannot prove".

Absolutely no theory in science can be proven. Gravitational theory cannot be proven. Atomic theory cannot be proven. Germ theory cannot be proven. Objecting to evolution as science because it cannot be proven only demonstrates that you are fundamentally ignorant of how science works.

Luckily, ID is spared any such issues, since there's no pesky physical evidence to get in the way of the theory!
