Nothing is "thoroughly" proven. You can just gather more and more evidence for
it. But as far as theories go, evolution is pretty good.

Evolution doesn't have anything to do with the origin of life. It's has to do
with how life evolved after it got here.

Actually there is no evidence for a God or instantaneous creation. There is
evidence for evolution. Creation "science" is not real science. It's sole
purpose is to discredit a real science, in the desperate attempt to give some
legitimacy to an old book some people want to have faith in. A book written by
long dead barbaric Jews.
