Scientific proof does not exist. Scientific theory backed up by experimental data and observations does exist. The only things you can prove are in mathematics.
However the first organisms were asexual and had both male and female parts. The evidence for this claim is that there is a natural progression from sexual creatures like man, through primates, monkeys, placental mammals, marsuipial mammals and the two two mammals that reproduce with soft eggs [the platypus and echidna] which leads us through lizards through to things like newts which are amphibious, going back further to fish, then to primitive acquatic animals such as eels, through to sea worms, which produce asexually.

really? I don't know either. Then again, I am a network engineer, not a evolutionary biologist. Should one be an evolutionary biologist to accept evolution?
You are asking questions about life as it existed billions of years ago. Simple life, with no skeleton or bones that could have fossilized. Much remains conjecture.
But again, if you can paint 98% of the picture using natural processes, it is unreasonable to say "god did it" for the remaining 2% and stop searching.

Your dilemma is invalid because rightly it should be male, female or asexual and it was definitely the latter. Microbiology does rely on speculation but speculation founded on solid evidence isn't a problem, in fact it's what science is all about.

Asexual, a lot like yeast. Here is a peer reviewed article about the fossils: http://www.springerlink.com/content/mw1850q176262g42/
And FYI, yeast buds. This really belongs in the Biology section.

Scientific proof and microfossils show asexual creatures first.

Wow. No only are you completely clueless, but you want everyone to know what a completely clueless person you are. You actually seem proud to show how little you understand about what you are whining about.

Why not ask the question in a science forum if you want a scientific answer?

I was going to answer, but the answers that precede mine are pretty good. Read them and what they link to.
