Perhaps you're not up to par on your definitions. Fact is something that can be proven true or false. Evolution falls into that category. I really find it hard to believe that it would come all this way for as long as it has if there wasn't a single bit of credible evidence for it. Science doesn't work that way. It doesn't just cling to things that aren't credible.
