You don't understand what evolution is. It really a name, and needs no proof.
Basically, there are a few known facts: (1) organisms die, (2) organisms reproduce, (3) the offspring are different from each other and from the parents, (4) the differences are more or less random, (5) dying is not random but a consequence of external forces, and (6) external forces are relatively constant. From these facts, it logically follows that over generations (or ofganisms reproducing ans dying), the living organisms will become more and more adapted to the environment. To avoid this long and detailed explanation, we just call this process evolution.
It's completely the same as e.g. the word "evaporate" - instead of saying that kinetic energy causes H2O molecules to become more and more excited, and slowly breaks the H bonds between molecules, so that they can move freely inspace (gas), we just say "water evaporates".

- knodi123 11y agoGo look up what kind of people use the word "evolutionism" and you might not be surprised.
- domas 11y agoYou didn't respond to any of the main points listed in the second paragraph. Would you say you can't find experiments for points (1) to (4)? Does point (5) needs any experiments? While point (6) just needs a more extensive definition. These 6 points are giving you the proof that you are asking for evolution to be proven in a scientific method. Edit: fixed typos.
