The excerpt you pulled above says exactly that.

Science uses the terminology when the proof is not irrefutable.
If you look into the research done on the DNA splitting and fusing, you will see it was done in labs and at temperature where the DNA could not survive (55-95 Celcius). (This was done to try prove the relation between humans and monkeys, it proved nothing except we are less related than previously thought)
In addition, the actual percentage of DNA that is shared with monkeys has been skewed, often quoted as being anywhere from 98% to almost 100%, when the reality is that it is likely only 95%. Not a big change in the number, but if one were to look at the amount of information stored in DNA, that small percentage results in a staggering amount of info. The theory is that there was a mutation along the way, and humans and monkey went their separate ways. This is absurd.
Here is another informative piece -
Haldane's Dilemma recognizes the problem for evolutionists of getting genetic changes in higher organisms, especially those which have long generation times. Due to the cost of substitution (death of the unfit) of one gene for another in a population, it would take over 7x10 to the 11th power years of human-like generations to substitute the 120 million base pairs. Or in 10 million years (twice the time since the chimp/human common ancestor is alleged to have lived), only 1667 substitutions could occur, or 0.001% of the difference. There has simply been insufficient time for ape-like creatures to turn into humans. And this understates the problem by assuming perfect efficiency of natural selection and ignoring deleterious processes like inbreeding and genetic drift, as well as problems posed by pleiotropy (one gene controlling more than one characteristic) and polygeny (more than one gene controlling one characteristic)—most real genes. See W.J. ReMine, The Biotic Message (St. Paul Science, St. Paul, Minnesota, 1993)
Lab tests and theories aside, there is still no hard evidence of humans and apes being descendants of the same ancestor. Even advanced and learned paleoanthropologists have yet to lay hands on a single proven hominid fossil. Because there is none. Moving on from that, Darwin claimed we all come from Africa, but yet all archeology points the Middle East as holding the Remains of the earliest human activity.
The thing is, to believe even a portion of this nonsense, you must also believe that all living things originated from a single cell, which was a result of the Big Bang. Please. Extreme heat cannot cause dead matter to come to life.
Anyhow, we can argue for years on this with neither yielding, we both seem fairly entrenched.
"Don`t worry" "the government" has lots of money. It is really incredible how stupid "socialist minded" people are today.
