Ben Levi,
Contrary to what you say there is a very clear fossil record that supports common descent and that is just one of the proofs to it. Even proponents of “Intelligent Design” (like Michael Behe author of Darwin’s Black Box for example) do not dispute that there is overwhelming evidence that all species alive today share a common ancestor and have descended from earlier species. Intelligent design posits that there are certain aspects of certain living beings that are “irreducibly complex” and therefore would have needed an intelligent designer to get involved with those certain aspects.
To claim there is no evidence to evolution is laughable at best.
You are also wrong when it comes to dating methods. The various methods used to date things do match up when used. Double blind testing with different methods is fairly common.
Do you believe the world is 6000 years old?
