Oh, I fully agree that micro-evolution is easy and proven. I don't dispute that. However, you can't really say all evolution is proven and witnessed, when (as BenV put it) only adaptation has been witnessed. That's why I have a problem with that aspect of what Runa is saying - he's trying to state that everything is proven beyond a shadow of doubt, when it really hasn't. Can you inferr a lot? Absolutely. Is it plausible that evolution is true? Yes. Is there some empircal evidence to lend credence to evolution? Yes. Is it absolute fact? No.


Just a tiny little error I want to point out that doesn't really mean too much:  "Is it absolute fact? No."  The answer shouldn't be no, but that we don't know.  Saying "no" to this means that you know it isn't a fact.  I know what you meant, though.
