Beginning with a false premise.
One of them must be true -they can't both be.
That of course is a false premise, and so anything based on that premise is bound to turn out wrong.
There is no conflict between Evolution and Creation. Evolution is simply "What God Did" and the Theory of Evolution is simply "How God Did It."

Re: evidence and assertions
No I asked for your best evolutionary proof that would blow away any possibility that creation was feasible.
Evolution or the Theory of Evolution are unrelated to whether or not GOD created everything seen and unseen. You continue to post false dichotomies even after they are pointed out to you.
The reason that Evolution is accepted as fact (fact meaning a high degree of confidence) is the evidence of long dead critters as well as the evidence of things living today. We can see that at one time many forms of life living today did not exist, and that many forms of life that lived in the past do not live today, that there appears to be change over time.
The reason that the Theory of Evolution is accepted as fact (fact meaning a high degree of confidence) is that the mechanisms, the model, explains how those changes seen in the record could come about.
So far your posts show a woeful ignorance of what the Theory of Evolution says. For example your mentioning of eyes in the back of the head implies that you think Evolution is directed, that traits which will help arise because of some need or usefulness. That is NOT at all what the TOE would predict.
