my daily life has no impact on the theory of evolution, it doesn't produce anything useful for humanity

Of course it does, its a windmill for fundtards like you to attempt to tilt.

[the theory of evolution has no impact on my daily life, it doesn't produce anything useful for humanity]
This statement is absolutely true in nearly every aspect--except for the words.

Allegory for Jesus
You realize that your first premise does not support your second, right?
Things can be useful for humanity without directly affecting our everday lives (e.g. cures for cancer). Hell, it could be of incredible importance and we may not even notice that it is helping us and a factor in our everday life (e.g. water purification).
Just because we are unknowledgable, well-to-do ingrates does not mean that things we do not appreciate are not helping us.

Then again, neither do you. Neither does, say, wasps. Just because it isn't useful for humanity, doesn't mean it isn't useful.

Never had antibiotics, vaccines or insulin (if you're a diabetic)?
You must be incredibly healthy or just an ignorant liar.

It's done little or nothing for me my whole life (52) either, directly. My middle son's a Diabetic and would have been dead at twelve if not for studies and science closely linked to evolutionary theory.
Some people reach 100 without need of medical science, most don't

Wait till you see the new movie that's coming out. It's called "Darwin Dances!" and it will knock your socks off.

"the theory of evolution has no impact on my daily life, it doesn't produce anything useful for humanity"
Except for vaccines, antibiotics, higher crop yields, pretty much all of genetics, public health policies, gene function prediction which aids in new drug discoveries, epidemiology to track the spread of diseases, Ribotyping to find previously unknown infectious agents in humans (notice how most of these are medically related and thus directly impact you in some way or other?), "engineered" bacteria to dispose of harmful chemical waste, genetic algorithms to design components cheaper and faster, and on and on and on...
Happy now?

Except vaccines, epidemiology, understanding of genetic diseases, not to mention optimised, more efficient tools and machinery. (genetic algorithms, anyone?)

(*swipes some material from Horsefeathers -- thanks for doing the research! -- and combines it with another bit appropriate for the occasion*)
Right! After all, apart from vaccines, antibiotics, higher crop yields, pretty much all of genetics, public health policies, gene function prediction which aids in new drug discoveries, epidemiology to track the spread of diseases, Ribotyping to find previously unknown infectious agents in humans, "engineered" bacteria to dispose of harmful chemical waste, genetic fingerprinting to help catch the guilty and exonerate the innocent, and genetic algorithms to design components cheaper and faster, what have the Romans --- I mean, what has evolution ever done for us?
