Interesting view. There are lots of phenomena that are quite counterintuitive, but still occur. In addtion to evolution, quantum phenomena and our very own fluid turbulence are in this category, in my view. All 3 have been extensively studied and documented, and there's no longer any reasonable doubt that these surprising phenomena indeed occur in our world. Quite an interesting universe in which to live.

I'll agree with you on 2 of the 3. Evolution has no evidence whatsoever that could be included in the definition of Imperical science. It takes as much faith to believe it as it does any other un-provable theories!
Virtually every biologist on the planet would vehemently disagree with you regarding the evidence. Those people who have successfully refuted and overturned previously accepted theories have generally been well trained in the disciplines involved. If evolution is an important issue for you, your best bet would be to learn as much as you can about biology. The less rigorous approach of being amazed that anyone would believe it doesn't achieve anything.
