Humans have over 900 genes in their DNA codes that are no longer active but were active in our ancestors with different lifestyles, and about 70 of these “fossil genes” were abandoned after the split from chimpanzees. This means around 830 “fossil genes” are still in our DNA code and have been there since before the split. In today’s society in the United States DNA evidence (on its own) is concrete enough to convict individuals of murder by connecting their DNA to the crime scene so, is this enough evidence to prove humans evolved from something other than Adam & Eve?

I think that using the word 'unquestionable' is too severe in any case. Evoultion will never be thought of as fact, always theory, and personal belief will always take precedent to science. Aside from that, there is absoultly no rational evidence (and quoting scripture is not rational) that humans came from Adam and Eve. It seems to me, that anybody who wishes to maintain at least the shadow of an open mind will at least consider the possiblity.
But yes, I absoultly believe that DNA evidence, along with many other things, provides more than enough proof to discredit Biblical mythology

They just had a show and they spoke of DNA and how the y chromosome originates froma a small group of people. So this says something.
Plus to evolve a sense (5 senses) you break the rules of evolution and physics. To create something new must be based on experience. How can you have knowledge to develop hearing,seeing etc etc

It is an excellent demonstration of evolution, but is not unquestionable. It has withstood vigorous scientific questioning.

I think it provides evidence of evolution but unquestionable? I don't know about that--I have often wondered that myself.

I believe in evolution.

I should think so, and should it not be, please, prove it wrong rather than rant and complain!
