As Darwin confessed in the long chapter of his book titled "Difficulties of the Theory," the theory was failing in the face of many critical questions.
Darwin invested all his hopes in new scientific discoveries, which he expected to solve the "Difficulties of the Theory." However, contrary to his expectations, scientific findings expanded the dimensions of these difficulties.
The defeat of Darwinism against science can be reviewed under three basic topics:
1) The theory can by no means explain how life originated on the earth.
2) There is no scientific finding showing that the "evolutionary mechanisms" proposed by the theory have any power to evolve at all.
3) The fossil record proves completely the contrary of the suggestions of the theory of evolution.

evolution isn't science science is something that can be proved through the scientific process and it cant be proven, ill believe you when you find an ape turned human(and proven it) also some scientists believe that there was a creator because of the impossibility of people coming from nonliving things its called the missing link cause its NOT THERE

The theory of evolution has been refind since Darwin first published "On the Origin of species". That is a very old book and the theory has been improved.
1) Evolutionary theory does not claim to explain how life originated on earth any more than the theory of gravity explains the invention of pro basketball.
2) There is strong evidence that genetic mutation and natural section are the mechanisms of evolution.
3) You have been given misnformation about this last point.
People who dismiss evolution as the absolute best answer as to how species got to be the way they are now need to go back to school, learn science, then study evolutionary biology and palentology.
The scientific community has not yet fully succummed to politics. When the MASSIVE MAJORITY OF SCIENTISTS ARE CONVINCED that evolutionary thoery is still valid and every doctor that is licensed to practice medicine uses tht evolutionary theory as the foundation of their education, you can trust that there is no better answer as of yet.

Wow.
#1 Has absolutely nothing to do with Evolution, as Evolutionary Theory doesn't address the origin of life. #2 is a basic ignorence of Scientific knowledge in general, given it even appears to reject adaption (sometimes called "Microevolution").
Do yourself a favour and check out PubMed:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi
Finally, #3 is also in basic ignorence of the fossil record: Consider some of the many transition fossils discovered today.

\/ To below: In some ways, we are still evolving. The development of HIV immunity and quirky nature of Sickle Cell Anemia are examples of this evolution. However, the discovery of technology has taken away many of the selective pressures of humanity and globalisation has made speciation all but impossible. This explains why we aren't seeing new species arising from humans.

1) Evolution is not meant to explain the beginning of life. It is simply a mechanism for change. Biogenesis is a different beast, but can also be reasonably explained.
2) There is lots of evidence. Mutations happen all the time. How do you explain bugs, bacteria, or viruses changing themselves and their immunities so quickly?
3) The fossil record is incomplete, but still points towards evolution. Take a trip to the Smithsonian sometime. They have a very expansive collection of fossils, many of which show evolution working, changing things over time.
Tell me which has done more for mankind:science or religion?

1) the theory was never meant to explain how life originated, nor does it try to.
2) evolutionary mechanisms do not evolve, life forms evolve.
3) the fossil record provides overwhelming evidence for evolution.

I applaud you for your scientific attempt at disproving the scientific theory of evolution. At least you didn't tell me Genesis chapter 1 is the end all and be all and I will rot in hell.
I hope none other atheists are offended, by reveal in your power of independent intelligence.
Ladies and gentlemen this man is not a fundamentalist sheeple, congratulate him.

So let's say you are right, let's say we just don't know. This does not prove anything relating to God.
I don't know how my XM Satellite radio works, but that doesn't mean that the hand of God is feeding music into my car with an invisible spoon.
Ignorance does not prove God, ignorance is merely a blank slate upon which to place or reject knowledge.
