You don't know, but you still believe. That's called faith, baby.
If it can't be proven then yes. Its faith.
Why are you so damned determined to slap down anyone and anyones ideas that there might be some greater power out there besides ourselves (God).
Because there is absolutely NO basis, NO evidence that supports the existence of a God.
However, from http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CA/CA201.html
The word "theory," in the context of science, does not imply uncertainty. It means "a coherent group of general propositions used as principles of explanation for a class of phenomena" [Barnhart 1948]. In the case of the theory of evolution, the following are some of the phenomena involved. All are facts:
That life appeared on earth more than two billion years ago;
That life forms have changed and diversified over life's history;
That species are related via common descent from one or a few common ancestors;
That natural selection is a significant factor affecting how species change.
Many other facts are explained by the theory of evolution as well.
The theory of evolution has proved itself in practice. It has useful applications in epidemiology, pest control, drug discovery, and other areas [Bull and Wichman 2001; Eisen and Wu 2002; Searls 2003].
Creationism is neither theory nor fact; it is, at best, only an opinion. Since it explains nothing, it is useless.
If "only a theory" were a real objection, creationists would also be issuing disclaimers complaining about the theory of gravity, atomic theory, the germ theory of disease, and the theory of limits (on which calculus is based). The theory of evolution is no less valid than any of these.
You certainly put a lot of effort into arguing against something that so clearly isn't true.
And you put in so very little effort in coming up with support for such a bold statement that the theory of evolution isn't true.
