Exactly the same way I know the earth isn't flat. The evidence is overwhelming.
I suggested Aristotle to you. The reason that it is fact that the earth is not flat is not because the evidence is overwhelming -that implies less that 100 percent evidence- but because it has been measured to be the striking case. It is not a conclusion from the evidence but the evidence itself.
truths are are not dependent on being proven but they continue to be the case whether or not they can be proven.
Orwellian doublespeak.
Fisherman if the DNA of a child and a man was sent to a lab to test for paternity and the results were unequivocal and just to be sure multiple samples were sent to lots of independent labs and they all came back with the same clear result would you still question it?
The strongest evidence for evolution is of exactly the same sort.
What if there was also tons and tons of evidence that the man had sex with the child's mother at the time in question?
We could go on but sooner or later rational people accept that something is proven beyond all reasonable doubt.
If there was evidence to contradict evolution then we could at least have an interesting conversation about it but there is none.
You are afraid of the possible implications of evolution being true and so you hide from the facts and pretend there are two sides to the debate. There isn't.
same clear result would you still question it?
No
The strongest evidence for evolution is of exactly the same sort.
How so. (as Polonius would say)

true But you are using these examples assuming evolution is exactly the same case. That is what you say.
How so?

Where is it shown that evolution is exactly the same as a paternity test with the same degree of certainty?
That's a terrible analogy Slim'.
Perhaps if tens of thousands of phone calls to the China Garden from hundreds of locations were all logged by dozens of professional communication experts and scrutinised for errors by rivals heavily motivated to find mistakes and with the results all made public . . .
evidence is overwhelming
Now wait a minute! Cofty equates the overwhelming evidence of evolution with the fact that the earth is a sphere. In fact, he says 100%.
