Can Darwin's evolution theory be proved?

And I mean PROVED. Not "yeah we got similar genes so probably" but "YES, because of this and that"
>>
*proven

no

evolution = mutation X survival of the fittest
which both are proven by science and even observable in nature by everyone.

>>8444499
Sorry, I used the wrong words.

Can the theory that humans evolved from ancient creatures such as the chimpanzee be proven? Such as the image I posted.

Read this. Really read it, don't just browse. Get back with real questions.

Nothing can definitely be "proved" in science. The best conclusion you can get is seeing the evidence for yourself and deciding if it makes the most sense. Gravity can't be proven, the big bang can't be proven but they all have substantial evidence that points to the fact that it might be that way.

>evolved from ancient creatures such as the chimpanzee
You want to know how I know you're either trolling or retarded ?

the core theory of evolution, that traits can vary in frequency in a population, is trivially true. you can simulate it yourself on a piece of paper.

so yes, it can and has been proven.

The image you posted is "the walk of man" an inaccurate depiction of how evolution and natural selection works, it was popularized by an anthropologist in some journal widely published so now all laymans think evolution and natural selection are linear as fuck processes which seek to perfect shit. Combine that with the survival of the fittest quote misinterpreted again and you get a fucked skewed view of the process of evolution. An image that creationists like to use to discredit evolution.

Also hominids didn't evolve from chimpanzees they are a contemporary of our species, a much more modern one.

We are still evolving apes who think math is a science and we evolved from chimpanzees.

Essentially. Have a (child or children). Their DNA is not the same as yours. Now (try to) imagine your children, their children, and their children etc... And imagine that with everyone and all the living things. That's evolution.
You won't live to see stuff change unless you observe many generations of something with an extremely short lifespan.

It can't be falsified either. It's unfalsifiable.
>>
>>8444495
Evolution is basically a self proving doctrine (kind of like climate change). So not really a monumental statement to say genetic mutations happen and there is a slow change in DNA over time.

Darwin proposed Natural Selection. So mutations that benefit a species are more likely to be passed on than one that does not or actually is negative.

So basically i) changing DNA over time is a self evident fact and ii) Natural Selection is a theory that has a lot of evidence to support.

Please fuck off.

I hate the janitors on this board so goddamn much.

Learn what the fuck a scientific theory is. Do some reading on the limits of the scientific method and the philosophy of science. Then pose an informed question.
>>
>>8444495
It can't because it's not true, it's been thoroughly proven that our Lord and Savior Yahweh created world and all the living in 6 days and that's a fact, it's not to be discussed

>unfalsifiable

>>8445430
If you can find anachronistic fossils then you could attempt to falsify it.

I think you need to learn what "the scientific method" is friend.
