So when Redi set up his famous scientific experiment proving that maggots came from eggs laid by flies and that they were not spontaneously generated from rotting meat, he really didn't prove anything?
but you can't prove evolution
Not even if I produced life in a test tube and got it to evolve?
Again, and again and again. Abiogenesis is not proof of evolution. Even so, we've evolved various organisms in and out of test tubes hundreds of thousands of times. Yet some still don't recognize this as "proof". Regardless of the organisms characteristics, they simply say "Oh, that's still yeast" or "still a paramecium" or what have you. Any gap in knowledge will be seized upon - never mind the fact that those gaps where their god acts and hides and issues edicts becomes smaller and smaller year after year. Never mind that they themselves have no theory, nothing testable, nothing with predictive value, nothing falsifiable. They'll just keep pointing fingers, using a lack of imagination, and misunderstanding the very theory they criticize all the while that theory is tested, makes predictions, gets refined, and continues to be useful day after day.
They're not interested in evidence. How many times have so many caught them lying to their followers? How many times have they been demonstrated quoting out of context dishonestly? Attempting to set up diploma mills, put their own journals together so they ca have "peer review", edit media dishonestly, etc? If you have evidence, if you're interested in truth, you don't require these techniques, and you don't excuse them.
