Take the cytochrome C electron shuttle in the electron transport chain and see how it is highly conserved in form and function among a wide variety of eukaryotes. That is molecular evidence for the relatedness of widely disparate organisms.
The Neutral Theory of Molecular Evolution was created in 1983.
The basis for all science, be it evolution or the study of how squeaky noises annoy people, is evidence. Darwin's primary evidence for evolution by natural selection was morphological homology; physical similarities between species. Modern evidence for evolution by natural selection is vast and includes a rich fossil record, well understood geologic evidence, radioisotopic evidence, as well as a host of genetic evidence from protein homologies to complex molecular systematics. All evidence for evolution converges on the singular observation that all organisms can be organized in a nested hierarchy much like a family tree; a Tree of Life.
I do not ' believe ' in evolution, but I am convinced by the evidence.
First of all, evolution is a FACT not a theory. You must be referring to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by means of natural selection. There is no denying the fact that evolution happens, scientists just didn't know exactly how it worked until Darwin suggested one plausible scientific explanation which he called natural selection. Natural selection is simply the change in allele frequencies of an organism which results that organism becoming either better or worse suited to survive in its environment. Being better suited to survive means that the organism is more likely to pass on the beneficial genetic trait to it's offspring. Rather than asking for evidence which helps prove evolution, try looking for verifiable scientific evidence which disproves it. After all, science is not about making claims and looking for evidence to prove them, but rather generating hypothesis and looking for ways to disprove them.
"The evidence for evolution countervails over the arguments against it." THis means that evidence for evolution counteracts the arguments against it.

Fossils provide amazing evidence for the theory of evolution and the long history of life on Earth.
