I find this to be a handy reply to this kind of "canned" argument.
If you eliminate the impossible, whatever is left -- however improbable --
must be the truth. If there are only two choices -- evolution or creation
-- and if it is scientifically proven that creation is impossible, then the
only remaining choice -- evolution -- must be the truth, no matter how
improbable it is.
