My experience is that talking with evolutionists about their belief system is generally somewhat of a waste of time.
If you start from a position that equivocates acceptance of evolution with the loss of your mortal soul, then yes, I imagine it's going to be a waste of time - the evolutionist's time.
The simple truth is that despite what some may believe proving common descent, such as if we had a time machine and eons to watch and observe all life evolving, that would still not disprove a literal interpretation of Genesis.
What do you mean by "literal"?
