One of the most strongest evidence of evolution is the fossil archaeopteryx. Probably, the most famous fossil in the world. It has both bird and lizard like entities. However, I do not see things skeptically for I am a spiritual person. Therefore, I think God made this occur in some apparent way (there are multiple theories including that earth and human are only 10 000 years old. God just made everything look older and evidence from the bible, it looks as if things occur 10 000 years ago beginning from Adam and Eve. This is just a theory I am not trying to evangelize or convert anyone in any way.).

Your first question is so absurd it doesnt warrant answering. The strongest evidence of evolution would have to be Dna. All species with minor execptions share the same genetic code. The overall genetic makeup of a frog and a humans are different. But the same amino acid that codes for a given gene in a frog codes for the same exact gene in an human. Over 98% of human and chimpanzee DNA is identical. If thats not evidence that we have a most recent common ancestor then I dont know what is

There are many types of evidence, which independently support each other. Anatomical comparison between existing species suggest a common ancestry, which is confirmed by both fossil evidence and genetic similarities between the species. This pattern appears again and again in every branch of the evolutionary tree.

Gee....thousands of papers.
There are so many tested predictions that evolution has there isn't even a good place to start with the strongest.
My bet would be fossil succession. That means that the fossils lay in the geology in a certain order. Here is a chart that shows what I mean: http://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/fossils/succession.html It is enough to prove the big idea of common decent all by itself.

The strongest evidence of evolution can be found by examining tree rings, fossils, and ice cores. The problem is not that it's inexplicable, it's that the explanation is too difficult for most anti-evolutionists to understand and so they choose NOT to believe it.
The evidence is complicated, but that doesn't make it speculation!

Prepare for "It's just a theory" schtick.
Translation = "I'm a Christian fundie and I don't understand it, so it can't be true!"
Well Fundies, if the truth of all things were predicated upon your ability to understand them, I suspect radios and tv's wouldn't work, cars would not move and stars wouldn't exist.
Yes, there is proof. Simple.
Is there proof of Intelligent Design? Absolutely NONE!!!!!!

The strongest evidence of evolution lies in the understanding of how DNA works. It is subject to mutation by radiation from the stars, which can be advantageous, have no effect, or be "deleterious" - a fancy word for "bad news", and that is just a tiny fraction of what can happen. If you understand how DNA works, evolution becomes a "slam dunk", no matter what its detractors say. You are going to get a lot of "interesting" answers to this one.

There is alot more proof for evolution then there is magical men in the sky and talking snakes with magical apples, in short that's all we really need to say isn't it?

it is 0% speculation, it is a fact, tell the crazy christians sorry the world isn't only 6000 years old, we did not just poof here when "god" imagined us, eve was not made of a rib, and you will not just go poof into heaven when your imaginary friend returns. maybe you should ask if the bible is 100% made up by humans to control other humans and women.

evolution is a nature law. we can't denie it evolution is when the seed start growing up fron the soil and becomes a root then a plant whit flowers and the opposite of evolution......involution......is when the flower gets old and start to die till becomes part of the soil and desape LAW OF EVOLUTION AND INVOLUTION. natural law have nothing to do whit religion god exist so the nature laws there are 48.
charles darwin teory of evolution is obsoleteis past dont exist no more and he did not explain the whole enchilada read the vedas.
