Science doesn’t work by proving things. It works by a process of falsification. Consequently, there’s no scientific proof of anything whatsoever. <> And, consequently, that makes no sense; nay, not even in big letters. Science doesn’t do proof. It comes up with evidence-based explanations which are then tested by attempting to falsify them. For example, there are theories that the Earth is roughly spherical, orbits a large object called the Sun, and this has something to do (according to another theory) with a force known as gravity. However, all these theories remain permanently open to revision or refutation should the need arise. None are proven. The same is so of evolutionary theory.
