There are literally HUNDREDS of proofs
http://www.godlessgeeks.com/LINKS/GodProof.htm
Including my favorite:
ARGUMENT FROM MIRACLES
(1) My aunt had cancer.
(2) The doctors gave her all these horrible treatments.
(3) My aunt prayed to God and now she doesn't have cancer.
(4) Therefore, God exists.
and as for evolution:
ARGUMENT FROM LACK OF EYEWITNESS (
(1) No one's ever seen one species turn into another.
(2) Therefore, God exists.
and don't forget:
ARGUMENT FROM PREFERRED ANCESTRY
(1) I don't want to be related to monkeys.
(2) Therefore, God exists.

Perhaps evolution and God can both be true.
Here is something to think about. I’m making a LOT of assumptions which may be wrong, but it’s an interesting argument. I need to fix it up a lot, but you get the gist.
1. The universe exists and has laws.
2. There is intelligent life within the universe.
3. The fundamental laws of the universe were created by an intelligent entity outside of the universe, OR the fundamental laws of the universe weren’t created by anyone or anything, they are the way they are for no reason.
4. The intelligent entity outside of the universe is God.
5. God wants to create intelligent life within the universe.
6. There are an infinite number of ways that the fundamental laws of the universe could have been different.
7. If the fundamental laws of the universe are they way they are for no reason, then there is also no reason that the fundamental laws of the universe couldn’t be different than they are.
8. If the fundamental laws of the universe are they way they are for no reason, the way that the universe could have worked has an equal chance of being the actual way it actually works.
9. There is only a very small chance that a single way the universe could have worked could support intelligent life.
10. There is a very large chance that the fundamental laws of the universe were created by an intelligent entity outside of the universe.

There is actually very little that I can "prove." All proofs require a starting condition that is assumed to be true. Prove to me that mathematics works, that 1+1=2. Go back far enough and you will find an assumption. Having said that, in the real world it seems to work and that is good enough for me.
The same thing about god. It is a concept that seems to work and there is enough empirical evidence that I'm willing to take it as a working model. Religion however is an entirely different thing.
I don't view evolution as mutually exclusive with the belief in god. I think god is both smart and lazy. She would set up the rules and let the rest of it "evolve" by its self. Creating on an individual basis is way too much work.

Space is infinite and unending. This proves to me that there should be some power that is governing everything which is beyond science.
Theory of evolution makes sense but what if the evolution was done by God.

In a sense in does.But you think about it,everything could have not existed out of no-where.I mean why dont you believe in god?Just for a minute forget about how there is no evidence that he exist ok.But who created god if there is one? People dismiss the thought of that becouse it is too complicated.God cant just exist out of no-where,he couldnt just be,and always be.If there is no god then how are we here honestly?There is a begging to everything,everything started from nothing once,but nothing cant create anything.Life has not been forever,it has not just existed without reason,it is impossible,Neither can god.Trying to figure why we exist is a really complicated question.But like I said,if evolution had to start somewhere,life couldnt just always be here.I dont know what to believe but I have been thinking about the same question for a very long time.

I can't prove to you there is a god. Nor can you "Prove" that humanity is the result of evolution by natural selection to someone unwilling to believe in the evidence. However, to me, the beliefs are not mutally exclusive. If we avoid a literal interpretation of Genisis, and we go with current thinking about the creation of the first single celled life form, we still have to account for how nonself replicating amino acids became self replicating combinations of dioxy ribonucleaic acid. If the belief in a devine spark creating life offers one comfort, there's nothing that says it ain't how it started.

I cannot prove to you that there is a God. Either you believe it or you don't. Evolution is part of God's creation, so naturally it makes sense to me as well as the Almighty's existence.
Can you not see the sense in that?

No one can prove to another the existence of God. God is something that must be experienced/known by the knower in order to be fully comprehended. It would be better if you asked God himself to prove to you that He exists. You may be more inclined to find an answer in that way.

You have your reality and I mine..we are each unique and there is no value in anyone trying to change your belief system ..prove or disprove your standpoint.
Knowledge is fluid and subject to change in the light of individual experience..What we discover each day changes our perspective ..colours our understanding.
If the theory of evolution fits with you then so it is yours..allowance is an important aspect of humanity..and as human..you walk your Path and see with your eyes..find what is yours..and embrace your own reality...

I think that the evolution is a bunch of bull. I believe in the fact that there's a God because he's answered so many of peoples questions and prayers, and there's always little miracles everyday.
