I am open to debate and explore this topic. My first question is this: How has science demonstrated through either (a) observation or (b) experimentation that evolution is proven scientifically?

If you have studied evolution, as you have claimed, you would know that perhaps half of all sciences do not use experimentation. These sciences are often called forensic sciences, and they work quite well within the scientific method. Within this method, the evidence supporting the theory of evolution is overwhelming.

As for "proved" -- see my prior post and the definitions on my FR homepage.

Debate is irrelevant.

Study the subject. Not just digests and lay articles, the subject itself. Then get back to us.

I have yet to see an opponent of evolution who actually understands the subject. The opposition is to a comic book misrepresentation of both general science and the specifics of evolutionary biology.
