Why do people believe in evolution, despite there being no evidence for it

[FreethinkingSceptic]

If you want to prove evolution to be true, the evidence you will need is a video recording of a single-celled organism evolving into a human over the span of millions of years.

Since such evidence hasn't been provided, there is no reason to believe in evolution, and you would have to be incredibly naive to do so.

Imagine that you said:

   If you want to prove Christianity to be true, the evidence you will need is a video recording of every instant of Jesus' life. And god's too.

   Since such evidence hasn't been provided, there is no reason to believe in Christianity, and you would have to be incredibly naive to do so.

Do you see how that makes you sound like a scientific illiterate?
