It was presented to me in an advanced neurophysiology course that I took and later taught at Cornell University. It illustrates similarities in membrane channels (most important bits of neuroscience) across all species.
Explain to me then, how we can look at genetic homology across species, combine dates with ancestors we find in fossils, understand processes involved in mutations through observations of them actually happening, understand the age of the universe through cosmology, and then say that none of that stuff really happened?
Evolution is an expression of fact. It is not just a whim of an idea as you seem to be implying when you use the term "theory."
I've addressed what theory means to scientists here and quashed this misconception.

So many people who are trying to push their dogmatic agenda speak on evolution and have never studied what we know.
When I say that computers are part of the same science that illustrates evolution, I mean EXACTLY THAT. Properties of Quantum Mechanics tell us the composition of the early universe through spectroscopy and they also provide the band gap in a semiconductor.
Have you ever heard of the Miller-Urey experiment? Carl Sagan went over this in his Cosmos series.
Carl Sagan's comment was that "Evolution is fact, its not a theory." And that is the case.
Keep on railing against it johnathan.. I couldn't imagine anyone in your position doing any differently. You are unexposed to the realities of science and you are probably in an environment where dogmatic religions are the norm. At least your behavior means you're a normal functioning biomachine who responds appropriately to its environment.
I have sequenced DNA myself. I have inserted genes into bacteria and yeast in the same way you program a computer with computer code. I have a PhD in biophysics. Using flourescence microscopy, I have SEEN a single DNA polymerase molecule incorporate base pairs into the strand of DNA in a nanofabricated device that some collegues of mine got on the cover of Science magazine with.
Last week i met the guy who wrote the software "BLAST" which is the most cited paper in the last 20 years or so because it made comparative genomics possible.
You're claiming that my statements are dogmatic. Refute the illustrations of the combined facts of sequence homology, fossil record, and cosmology.
Have you ever SEEN the beginning of the universe? I have. I've seen the background radiation of the universe and listened to it on an audio monitor. That's just like someone sitting at a football game and SEEING the light bounce off the players. I've seen photons from the beginning of time... And you can to.
It's infinitely more amazing than any dogma you've been lost in.
Where exactly is the dogma in any of this? I certainly don't see it.
