I have spent countless hours researching the subject of evolution and have found this - there is no “smoking gun” or “missing link” that changes evolution from theory to proven science. In fact, the theory of evolution and its components have had to change dramatically to meet new scientific findings. Some have even disproven previously “accepted facts” of evolution that then were changed and swept away to fit with the new science.
This is not the forum for a debate on Intelligent Design vs. Evolution, but I was curious why you believe it. I find it to be very laughable that we have been duped into accepting this as fact when the science behind it is very weak and is also open to other interpretations, since none of it can be observed or proven by experimentation (the basic tenets of science).
You have a serious mistake in your understanding of "theory" and "proof" in science. Absolutely nothing is considered "proved" in science. A theory is the highest form of documentation -- for definitions see my FR homepage (some posters here hate it when I post the definitions of terms as they are actually used by scientists).

There is a tremendous amount of evidence supporting the theory of evolution. The science is not weak, and is only open to "other interpretations" when you start with the idea that the bible trumps science, evidence, the scientific method and all the rest. See, as good examples of this, the statements of belief of the Creation Research Society, the Institute for Creation Research, the Creation Studies Institute, Answers In Genesis, and Creation Ministries International. What they are doing is not "weak science" but pure religion.
