This is a tired argument and your "theory" is just that. Wild speculation and innuendo, assuming this that the other thing draw conclusions only to what you want to believe.

So, I take it you also doubt the theory of electromagnetism? The theory of gravity?

May I suggest that you find out what the word "theory" means, in the scientific sense. Evolution (and gravitation and electromagnetism) are theories because they are the best descriptions that explain the known facts and predict new ones. Scientists are not given to "wild speculation and innuendo"; if you want that kind of stuff, you need to go to DU or some conspiracy website or something. We scientists, we're driven to find out how the world works. When we speculate, we set up experiments to prove or disprove our speculation. And we are ruthless about trying to debunk ourselves.

If these "scientists" weren't so hellbent on trying to prove this theory maybe they could devote their time, energy and resource's to something useful like curing diseases like cancer and diabetes I think that would be a much more noble task.

electromagnetism? The theory of gravity?

Those can be proven and replicated in a lab. Man evolving from a single cell organism however is speculation and could never be replicated nor proven.
