"The first part of the first sentence is an admission that evolution is not a fact because it refers to "theories about the processes". The second sentence contradicts the first sentence."

No it doesn't. It is a fact that evolution happens. There are theories that explain how this evolution happens. It's only strained parsing if you don't understand the difference between fact and theory. Note that the fact of evolution is still open to new contrary data; facts are not *proved* any more than theories are. Facts are data points; theories are the means of organizing these data points and making them coherent. The ToE explains the fact of evolution.

You have obviously never taken a course in logic. If you had, you would recognize the complete foolishness of your last post.
