It is falsifiable. Finding modern human skeletons before the Tertiary would be a falsification, for instance

No, that is your prediction of what would falsify. When faced with something that actually falsifies, you deny it or handwring - such as human footprints and dino footprints captured in the same layer of rock and hardened for posterity. We have to make excuses and change the laws of physics to account for this - don't we. But there are examples of it all over the planet that evolutionists won't recognize for what they are. They rather dismiss them out of hand and pretend it's made up, a fluke or some fantasy, even though the evidence stands on it's own.

Evolution is not falsifiable. You cannot produce an instance of it actually happening and reproduce the conditions such that it can be fully observed and proven. It is not possible because it doesn't happen. That is why you need millions and billions of years - so that you can claim without evidence that it takes long periods of time to happen. Time becomes the god of your machine. When you can't sell the vast amount of time, the whole thing falls apart. Which is not to say it's the only thing that causes it to fall apart, it's just one of the more obvious.

And, as for your second sentence above, Evolution does not in any way teach that this would be possible. That you believe it does shows a profound ignorance of that which you rale against.

On the contrary, it most certainly does. For an organism to "evolve" it would either have to be born in mutated form or mutate after being born. In either case, it must be born and mutated and then be able to reproduce it's mutation in another generation to be a viable evolved creature. That is the heart and sole of evolution. And that is exactly what your textbooks teach the kids as to how man came from apes.

Science demands that the theory be falsifiable. It is not and never will be. It cannot be observed, tested nor reproduced. And you have no evidence that it has ever happened once - much less the millions of times needed to account for all the species. This renders it a belief system - not science.

Where? Even AIG denies the Paluxy River tracks are made by human feet.
