Here are some scenarios that would falsify part if not all of evolution:
Ths discovery of a six-legged tetrapod (either mammal, reptile, amphibian or
bird) in Late Cenozoic strata (say within the last 25 million years).
The discovery of dolphin, orca, seal, sea turtle and penguin fossils in
Middle Devonian strata.
The discovery of a Homo sapiens skeleton inside the rib cage of a
Tyrannosauroid.
The discovery on an isolated island of the existence of a community of
animals that are indestinguishable from other living groups, but who use
right-handed amino acids and left-handed sugars.
The discovery of a gene that produces a protein that serves no purpose, but
whose amino acid sequence spells out the Ten Commandments.
With regard to "Professing to be wise, they became fools...".

How? The last time I read the Bible I found no verse that said, "Thus saith
the Lord thy God: I did not use evolution to create the diversity of life
in the world, but created it all instantly using My divine supernatural
powers." Creationists may like to read into the Bible this statement, but
in fact nowhere does the Bible ever make this claim, not even by
implication.

That may be what you see, but that may only be because these laboratories
are not singing hymns to the greater glory of God everytime a hypothesis is
verified. The fact that science has nothing to say about God is not the
same thing as saying that God is unwelcome. I have worked with many
scientists who believed they were uncovering the glories of God's creation,
but they still do not use God to explain how that creation works.

Like most prophets Jeremiah was exaggerating for effect. But in the sense
that man is selfish and prefers to follow his own way rather than the way of
God, Jeremiah was certainly correct. Even so, what does this have to do
with evolution?

No, considering that we have the Bible that spells out that moral code. The
fact that people choose not to follow that code is not the same thing as
saying there is no code.

I have to admit that I'm not sure what your point is here. Could you
elaborate?
