I appreciate the straw man. I find it very amusing, really, I do.

Then you need to thank gore3000. This is really about his tactic of demanding absolute demonstrative proof of evolutionary theory (and of anything relating to it), but accepting arm-waving "atom bombs" prove "relativity" type standards of "proof" for any scientific theory he doesn't happen to disagree with. IOW the real problem is goal post shifting in the service of rank dogmatism.

If you use the term "proof" differently than I do, but use it consistently, then I have no real problem with that.

I have told you many times how science proves its theories. You keep spouting garbage about absolute proof. That is not what science is about and you know it. So you are being completely disingeneous in this discussion. You know quite well that science is not a series of rhetorical flourishes. You know quite well that scientific theories give proof of their veracity. So stop insulting and start giving facts instead of rhetoric.
