The subject gets more-so interesting, so I really feel the need to intercept. While I have not worked a lot with the theories of evolution beyond the premises of the concept, I still wish to have some input on the subject.
For most of my scientific discussions I have assumed Evolution to be true, just as Electricity has been true. Why? Because even though electricity is a theory it brings amazing results of which we harness daily, to disprove it would be nigh impossible without having some solid results. The same thing applies with Evolution: We have harnessed the basic concepts of it for a long time to fight diseases, the idea of our cells evolving to fight a threat is not a new one. My true reasoning for accepting it is because it yields results and is very intricate along with applicable in its usage.
Religion on the other hand, what can you say about it really? It attempts to prove itself right in every way except simply providing evidence, because it fails to do this I have no belief in it whatsoever. Another thing about it is the loose interpretation of the divine document which many people see as a different thing; therefore, by default religion isn't either concise or reliable.
I am not quite sure how you see mathematics as the only fact, because mathematics just like every other form of measurement has been created by man. Fact is simply something we commonly accept as true, because it is quite possible that there exists an exception in the universe. I really cannot see your logic, because quite frankly it seems there is none. If you really wanted mathematical proof just use Mendel's method: look at his chart, grow flowers, record the result. Most likely than not your flowers will have traits close to his measurements of what kind of % chance there is for them to be white/yellow, etc.

evolution can never be fact, since facts are mathematically proven and you cant prove evolution mathematically. the only way evolution can be disproven is something else comes along that better fits the problem
