Luckily, evolution is widely accepted as fact. Much the same way gravity is. There is nearly equal evidence for both and none against. But you guys are correct. Theories can be disproved with a single piece of evidence. That's what makes them immensely strong in the world of science. (but not all theories are equal). Some are pretty close though.  ;D

Outline your standards to determine if something was proven.

pretty sure that gravity has been tested both with math and observed in atoms

Likewise, evolution has been observed and DNA is structured just like if we evolved.
