"Evolution has never been observed.
Evolution violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics.
There are no transitional fossils.
The theory of evolution says that life originated, and evolution proceeds, by random chance.
Evolution is only a theory; it hasn't been proved."
Can you find more?

Oh, for cryin' out loud!
Look, I'm a Christian, and God knows I agree with you. But do you really think you can out-logic atheists?
It is physically impossible to convince someone that God is real. Share the truth, but decisions are made on faith, not on knowledge. Knowledge is important, but knowledge is just one ingredient in the concrete out of which our faith is built.

I HAVE observed evolution. It in no way violated the 2nd law of thermodynamics anymore than melanoma does. ALL fossils are transitional, the nature of change. Evolution speaks not to the origins of life and there is nothing random about the environmental pressures that bring change. Science uses the word theory so the closed-minded can accept that we learn more every day. They have a really hard time with that. The word truth is only used in mathematics. In Biology, we always use theory, it is still called cell theory and I bet you've seen one.

Every one of those statements is false. Evolution has been observed; Darwin did so in his lifetime. It does not violate the 2d law of thermodynamics, as the earth is not a closed system. There are transitional fossils, but the lack of something that might be supposed to be a transition shows ignorance of the claimant, not of a failure of evolution: since genetic data is stored in digital, rather than analog form, there is a minimum change that can occur due to a one-bit change in the code, but there is NO maximum: a one-bit change can activate all or part of an intron, or de-activate all or part of an exon, so an arbitrarily large change can occur. Evolution does not proceed by random chance: it is guided by natural selection. And finally, evolution, which has been established science for a century, now IS a proven fact: it is provable, and I have done so. (Details on request.)

Everyone agrees it is a theory. All science is theory based because the goal of science is to develop a better view of reality by continually disproving "facts."

We can definitely prove natural selection, but not evolution.

None of those statements are true, so...
