It all depends on what you consider "proven", don't you think?

No it does not. Science requires evidence and evolution has been saying for 150 years that it is science and that men have evolved from bacteria. One would think that for such a claim they would have had to have provided some fairly obvious evidence. However, even though evolution occurs all the time (even now, supposedly), even though it has been going on for over 3 billion years (supposedly), even though there are over a million species in existence and many more which are extinct, evolutionists cannot give even one single example of macro-evolution. Now that seems quite a problem for the evolutionist claim that evolution is scientifically true. A further problem is that little old me was easily able to find two examples of species that totally disprove evolution:

Euglean a creature that is both a plant and an animal - and has eyes also!


The platypus - a creature which shares traits with mammals (mammary glands, three earbones, fur, vocalization), birds (duck like bill, webbed feet), reptiles (egg laying, , cloaca, poison spur), fish (fins, electro receptor). No one can say how all the above features and characteristics of this one animal could have descended from a single species.

Actually, I was talking about the difference between conclusively proving that something must be true, which is highly unlikely with evolution, and many other things, and proving something true by the weight of the evidence, which is a bit more likely.

Still, I don't know what you think your examples are proving. Euglena is not both a plant and an animal - it is a member of the kingdom Protista, and it is neither plant nor animal, any more than a mushroom is.

As for platypus, it seems tolerably likely that the very earliest mammals were also oviparous. It's also hardly the only mammal with webbed feet. In any case, this common misconception about where the platypus fits into an evolutionary scheme has been addressed already...

Of course God knew evolutionist wackos would be here today and wanted to give everyone a good laugh, watching them try to explain that one.
