It's not a mathematical proof, but we don't generally use mathematical proofs in science; except occasionally for proving an auxiliary result relating to a scientific model that can be expressed mathematically.
Evolution is a proven theory, in just this empirical sense. The relatedness of diverse living things has been confirmed by genetic studies. This is a perfectly good proof
Are you saying that if using some recombination genetic rule (on the relation between markers and genes and the genetic map)in analogy (of space to time)IN TIME in macrothermodynamics and one DEDUCES some aspect by the method of pure math proof this would be a priori AGAINST your view? I guess Wolfram MIGHT? have such a position but is it yours too?
