Evolution is a well-demonstrated process, first described in the Book of Genesis

Where? Go ahead and show us. (Here comes the straw man again; if you can't prove evolution, drag the Bible into it.)

Over the years, Darwin's theory has been refined and revised many times

But it still remains a theory.

just as Isaac Newton's observations were subject to Einstein's discoveries

Apples/oranges comparison to Darwin. Newton's observations became law "out of the box" and were based on sound science and mathematics. Einstein's work was an addition to Newton, not a revision.

But gravity and the speed of light are real, just as evolution is real

Wrong. Gravity is a law. The speed of light is an observed phenomenon and therefore also law. Evolution remains an unproven theory.

It's pretty clear Homo Neanderthalis coincided, or overlapped with Homo sapiens; the reasons homo sapiens prevailed are not 100% clear, though we speculate it had in part to do with homo sapiens use of language

Genetics of H. "neanderthalis" show no difference between it and H. sapiens. There is also evidence popping up that "H. neanderthalis" spoke using language.

Church elders fought ideas like the earth being round and the sun being the center of the solar system and evolution because it tended to erode their absolute power and access to wealth

I agree—evidence against the earth being flat and the earth being the center of the solar system is actually in the Bible. However, the theory of evolution is not in that timeframe, and the theory of evolution was itself used (and is still being used) as a political tool as though it were fact and law—its proponents can be as zealous as the clergy.

The same is true today of evolution. As long as they have stooges like you they can count on, they always have hope of restoring their theocracy here

Shaky premise; even made shakier by your personal attack. Theocracies such as the Islamic one in Iran have nothing to do with the arguments for and against Darwinism.
