I think you can figure it out
I think so, do you live in a Dream world?

You’re the one that lives in a dream world unfortunately. Just keep blindly believing what science feeds you
You see, that's the thing about people who apply science in their lives. They don't "blindly believe." They are, for the most part, skeptics by nature. They do their own homework before they buy into just about anything someone tells them.

Obviously everything was created with a fake history, including your memories of having supposedly lived your entire life.
Only it wasn't in 1980. Instead, it was Last Thursday.

Give new meaning to the term "older than dirt"...Wow, born before the world was made. So old.

I don't need to believe. Evolution has been observed and documented first hand to put any and all doubts to rest.Of course this question is addressed both to theists and to atheists. Both to those who believe in evolution and those who believe it's untrue.
Explain why you, through your intelligence, reason and mind developped the awareness and the conviction that Evolution is the historical truth.
If you are a theist, please explain the theological implications, as well.
I will underline that we are not talking about Intelligence Design, here: we are talking about Darwinian evolution based upon the Darwinian principles like natural selection, etc..etc...

Yes, you are inventing an urban myth to avoid a constructive meaningful discussion about evolution.
Darwin, had a perspective of natural selection but did not use the word evolution even once in his book.Of course this question is addressed both to theists and to atheists. Both to those who believe in evolution and those who believe it's untrue.

My perspective, came from watching nature but the clincher was watching an embryo develop to a human child.
Needs more explanation. Not meaningful.

It makes perfect sense, it has been tested and not falsified for almost a century.Of course this question is addressed both to theists and to atheists. Both to those who believe in evolution and those who believe it's untrue.

I mean, I kinda assumed it had to be true when I started to appreciate the diligence of the scientific community. But the final nails in the coffin were delivered when I took college-level biology classes.
Going to the zoo and watching the apes. The ones not using a camera.Of course this question is addressed both to theists and to atheists. Both to those who believe in evolution and those who believe it's untrue.

I have not answered the OP.
As far as science is concerned, there are no better alternative theories that explain the mechanisms the biodiversity of life on Earth.
it is not just the fossil records. Most biologists are not paleontologists, and most have examined & studied fossils.
Most biologists are focused on living & extant species, not extinct, so the evidence come from examining evidence, particularly the relatedness of species through physical traits (such as their morphology) and the relatedness of species through the DNA analysis & comparisons.
Not only there are logic in each of the evolutionary mechanisms, the evidence support the logic of each mechanisms.
For those who don’t know what I means by mechanisms, there are now 5 mechanisms in the theory of Evolution:
Also, in the paleontology field, the knowledge of fossilisation and stratigraphy have also been greatly advanced in the last 50 years.
Evolutionary biology is not the same as back in 1859. It is called progress, for those still living in the Dark Ages (particularly the YEC creationists).

That’s because he called it Natural Selection.
Yep.... he did not know how, but had a shell idea.
