I sort of get what you're saying - despite the confused language - but you're mistaken. Evolution has a huge variety of proof. The notion of the supernatural has no proof. Oh, I know you can claim the bible and the huge mass of religious people, but none of these things actually demonstrate the existence of a supernatural entity. No one ever has demonstrated this. You may wish with all your heart to believe otherwise, but wishing doesn't make for credible explanations.
How can we explain creation you ask?
Firstly let's clarify - evolution is not a theory about creation. It simply aims to explain the diversity of life on Earth. That's it. It doesn't even require any knowledge of how life may have appeared - certainly Darwin had no knowledge of this. Of course, this is not satisfactory to many people - any explanation of the diversity of life sort of needs to be able to cope with the beginnings of life.
And the answer? There are some explanations heading towards useful explanations,but nothing definitive.
This is not a problem for a scientific viewpoint - explanations don't all come at once, divinely appearing in a burning bush or broken tablets or whatever. Explanations develop over time.
Do we know how life formed on Earth? No.
Do we know how the universe began, if it did indeed begin? No.
Lack of explanations is not a problem. They'll come, in time.
Resorting to a 'god did it' explanation is of no use i there is no proof.
I'm still waiting for proof on that score.
