You cant prove evolution so your still taking a leap of faith that it is true and you cant prove God does not exist so thats another leap of faith to believe He doesnt, so why not put your faith in loving God?

First of all, by the way you phrased your question I can tell that you are an absolute GENIUS.

Evolution can and is proven frequently. People like you have no concept of how scientific theories work. "A theory does not mean an unsubstantiated guess or hunch, as it can in everyday speech. A theory is a logically self-consistent model or framework for describing the behavior of a related set of natural or social phenomena. It originates from or is supported by experimental evidence (see scientific method)." From - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory#Science
Secondly, if you are going to put forth the idea that a god exists, it is up to YOU to prove that it does. It isn't our responsibility to disprove your god, for the same reason I don't need to disprove unicorns, ghosts or any other kind of supernatural creature.
If there is any faith involved here, it is your supposed faith in god.'
Faith: noun - a belief that is not based on proof

The evidence for evolution is out there. It's just that people don't want to make the effort to actually get off their butt and read a science book. Learn about science from the works of actual scientists, not armchair theologians.

I can't disprove the existence of God no more than you can disprove the existence of teapot that's currently orbiting Pluto. So why not put your faith in the teapot?

as to the evolution part of your "question"; you obviously don't understand the true scientific definition of the word "theory" so i'm just going to skip that for now... as to your postulate
"you cant prove God does not exist so thats another leap of faith to believe He doesnt"

while it may be true to say the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence, it still proves nothing, and it is clearly a bigger "leap of faith" or :"acceptance of delusion" to believe in something without evidence than not to believe. and returning to your evolution thoughts... there is much evidence supporting the theory of evolution and darwin's theory of natural selection, the only "evidence" supporting creation is a book. oh and BTW... dont tell me what to do or believe anymore

They probably don't suck as much as your perception of them sucking! Please see the following:
The developmental data suggest that resistance to science will arise in children when scientific claims clash with early emerging, intuitive expectations. This resistance will persist through adulthood if the scientific claims are contested within a society, and will be especially strong if there is a non-scientific alternative that is rooted in common sense and championed by people who are taken as reliable and trustworthy. This is the current situation in the United States with regard to the central tenets of neuroscience and of evolutionary biology. These clash with intuitive beliefs about the immaterial nature of the soul and the purposeful design of humans and other animals — and, in the United States, these intuitive beliefs are particularly likely to be endorsed and transmitted by trusted religious and political authorities. Hence these are among the domains where Americans' resistance to science is the strongest.

You're going with the best scientific explanation based on the evidence at hand. There is massive evidence that supports the theory of evolution. There is no scientific evidence that supports the theory that omnipotent beings exist and interfere in the physical world.

There basically being stupid with the aid of fact evolution isn't a suggestion of atheism, its technological know-how. apart from, Christianity makes the least experience out of each and every of the religions and pretending that it does make perfect experience basically potential you do not completely comprehend it. there is not something uncomplicated experience approximately Christianity, it somewhat is why i'm a Christian with the aid of fact i've got faith it tells a reality that i can not get everywhere else. That reality isn't that technological know-how is evil and that we could desire to take the Bible actually with the aid of fact we are too lazy to think of roughly it. i don't comprehend if any of that made experience.

No. No. No.

Evolution has been scientifically proven. Its here to stay. No faith involved, I looked at the science.

Logically you cannot prove a negative. The person making the statement has to prove it. Can you prove that god exists?

Can you "prove" that Hindus aren't right? Or the Wiccans? Or the ancient Greeks?

Why not put your faith in one of those religions?

Atheists can believe what they want; they let you believe in God, don't they? There is actually a lot of evidence supporting evolution. But I think that it doesn't really matter what you believe in, whether it be atheism or God.

Evolution has a lot of facts and support to it though. And God has almost none of that and evidence against him. You can almost never prove anything... but as Richard Dawkins says "There may be fairies at the end of the garden. There is no evidence for them and no evidence against them. Does that mean we should be agnostic in respect of fairies?" Obviously not, who the hell believes in fairies???
