Personal beliefs and opinions are not a kind of evidence used to support evolutionary theory. Scientific evidence such as fossil records, DNA analysis, and observational data are the main sources of evidence.
Personal beliefs or opinions Anecdotal accounts or stories Pseudoscientific claims or false data
Evidence used to support evolutionary theory includes the fossil record showing the progression of species over time, comparative anatomy and genetics showing shared traits among different species, and the observation of natural selection acting on populations leading to adaptation and speciation.
The evidence from the fossil record is considered the strongest support for other forms of evidence in evolution. Fossils provide a physical record of past organisms, showing changes over time and the relationships between different species. This evidence complements genetic, anatomical, and embryological evidence to provide a comprehensive understanding of evolutionary processes.

Most religious creation myths teach that human beings (and every other form of life), were created specially, separate from all the others, for a particular divine purpose.Evolutionary theory does not award the human race (or any other kind of life) with a special position. Each and every living thing is the end product, the summum, of a long history of surviving common ancestors, producing diverging lineages. According to evolutionary theory, we're special not because of our origins, but because of the characteristics we've evolved, which set us - but every other life form as well - apart from all the others. There is no overriding purpose to our being special, according to evolutionary theory. We're merely a product of differential reproductive success.I believe that, in the basis, it is the issue of needing to be special in combination with the need for some overriding purpose that causes fundamentalists to reject evolutionary theory as an explanation for the diversity of life. See the answer below for an example of this.Answer:Fundamentalism, and religion in general, is at odds with evolutionary theory because evolutionary theory tends to be taught with the implicit message that God is not part (or need not be part) of the picture, that people do not have souls, and that there's no life after this one.

You and I have the same 50% DNA as a banana.
What kind of information or items, did he use to support his theory
If you browse around this category, you will find several similar questions with replies that answer your query. ==================================== Real scientists do not "gather evidence in support of" any theory. The technical term for that kind of thing is "cherry-picking". Real scientists build a theory to explain the evidence that they have already gathered, and then test the theory to see whether it holds water. The easiest, fastest way to make sure that you are regarded as a wingnut by real scientists is to adopt or invent a theory, and then spend your time trying to prove it.
He used fossils,climate changes,and landforms to support his theory.

There is no evidence of any kind to support the idea.
