That detailed study still requires that one *believe* or have *faith* in
the unobserved conclusions which the opiners come to based upon what they
can observe.  That isn't the same level of proof as is being required for
other things under discussion.

Keep in mind I don't care if evolution is the correct explanation or not.
There is nothing about evolution that is contradictory to the existence of
a creator.  I'm just pointing out that evolution is and remains a *theory*
that can not be proven as a fact because it can not be directly observed.
I'm not talking about intra-species differentiation here but trans-species
development.  It is implied some say from observations that can be made,
but no body has watched a non-chicken lay an egg then watched that same egg
hatch and develop into the first chicken.
