I have consistently maintained that they are, or at least appear to be, on equal footing as they all require the belief in something that I cannot see.

There is a fricken mountain of research and study on evolution. There are thousands of books and websites which can give you summaries, or you can delve into the subject and make your own decision. The subject itself is so broad that parts have been rejected, refined, or outright changed, and you could probably have a pretty interesting debate between champions of different types of evolution.
You can't see if you AREN'T LOOKING.
NO ONE is saying "trust me" from the scientific side of this. I question your contention that anyone is. The theory of evolution at it simplest is just that "Change in the genetic composition of a population during successive generations, as a result of natural selection acting on the genetic variation among individuals, results in the development of new species."
Either it happens or it doesn't. You asked for evidence, I point at
evidence. You say that's not evidence! I get annoyed. You say I'm acting like a petulant mystic. I decide I've put way too much effort into talking to you.
