You state that evolution has been proven in the laboratory. I have also heard that evolution of man cannot be shown since it would take 1,000,000 + years to see any evolutinoary effect. Well in that case, can science attempt to make a fish get up and walk on land? It's a simple organism, and with all the advanced in scientific technology, it shouldn't be too difficult to get the little fishey to grow legs and walk...

Your understanding of evolution is extremely lacking, but that is a subject for another thread.
Also, assuming that the 5 facts you mention are fully, verifiably true, that does nothing to prove that god exists. I'm sure that was not your point, though. Anyone can start a religion. Even a science fiction writer like L Ron Hubbard. Do you believe all of the tenets of Scientology? That aliens have visited Earth before, etc.? You can't *prove* that they didn't, so I'm assuming that you are "agnostic" when it comes to Scientology? Using your logic (and I hope I'm not putting words in your mouth), you must admit that it is possible that Scientology is true because you cannot prove that it's claims are not valid - even though most rational people think they are silly. Or insert any other religion in the place of Scientology. Mormonism? Do you believe the stories that Joseph Smith Jr told?
If you reject Scientology or the stories that Joseph Smith Jr told, you might have some insight into why I reject Christianity.
