Never be proven. Never. Well then, you self-admittedly show you have a non-provable-belief. My hats off to you.

While I can not prove to you (today anyway) that the earth and all on it were Created, I do believe it.

So, what’s the deal? You have your belief, I have mine. The difference is that, in general, you may have your evo-faith threads without someone who believes in the Word of God saying much, but a Creationist thread is quickly inundated by those who ridicule.

I pray for those who do, that they may come to know their Creator.

I think you are reading a bit much into my comments...so-called Creationist threads, as you probably know, are attempts by non-science types to reconcile their faith with the apparent contradictory evidence that science has accumulated. It's mostly impossible to counter science without a basic understanding of the terms, and most of the derision I see is based on that. A person that accepts the entire Bible as literal will most likely always be at odds with science. As I believe the Torah (Bible) is absolute truth, here's a quote for you that I enjoy...

If and when evolutionary theory is perfected, it should, states Rabbi Hirsch, cause us to:
"give even greater reverence than ever before to the one, sole G-d Who, in His boundless creative wisdom and eternal omnipotence, needed to bring into existence no more than one single, amorphous nucleus, and one single law of 'adaptation and heredity' in order to bring forth, from what seemed chaos but was in fact a very definite order, the infinite variety of species we know today."
