No, you're claiming it's evidence, but claiming it's evidence doesn't make it evidence.

Regarding matter, it's all evidence.
We all know energy exists in it's own right.No. Kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, heat energy, elastic energy, chemical energy, atomic bond energy, and so-on, are not 'solid'. When matter is 'converted to energy' by, for example, fission or fusion, it's actually converted to other forms of the energy of stuff - particles with high kinetic energy, photons with high frequencies, etc. Ultimately, stuff is made of quantum fields, and the energy of stuff is the energy of quantum fields in different states.
As I've said elsewhere, an analogy might be financial value - it comes in many forms and can be converted from one form to another, but doesn't exist in its own right.

Tsk... Just because energy is conserved, doesn't mean it exists in its own right. Financial value isn't conserved, but in principle, it could be. That wouldn't cause it to exist in its own right.We all know energy exists in it's own right.
My teacher told me so.
Well, you said "... energy has various properties which render it "solid".", and I say that's incorrect.Nobody claimed that energy was a solid. But "solids" are composed of energy particles.
There are no things. Only energy.There is no such thing as 'pure' energy - it's a property that things have by reason of their composition and context, it has no independent existence.
Solids are not composed of energy particles.

You are demonstrating cause and effect, not design.A few too many beers can wipe out nearly all the organisms in your colon and give you the runs.
Long term, life recovers and your poop becomes solid again.
You are winning, or you are learning.
No; that specifies a correspondence or equivalence relation, not an identity relation.Solids are composed of energy particles.
E = mc2
That's either pop-sci hyperbole or sloppy description. Einstein's formula describes the equivalence between mass (not matter) and energy (the conserved property). The energy of mass and other forms of energy are inter-convertible, they are not the same thing.So energy and matter are really the same thing. Completely interchangeable.

'Equivalent' does not mean 'the same', as already pointed out.No citations? That's a shame. You really should have researched it first.
"Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared." On the most basic level, the equation says that energy and mass (matter) are interchangeable; they are different forms of the same thing. Under the right conditions, energy can become mass, and vice versa.

Einstein's great realization (or one of several !) was that energy and mass are the same thing, just (sometimes) measured in different units. There is no conversion involved (unless you mean a conversion of units). The equivalence is made transparent in particle physics where the electron volt is both a unit of energy and a unit of mass.

Yes they are the same. Mass and energy are equivalent, and you can look up plenty of articles online about mass-energy equivalency.
That's a simplification. The energy of mass can be converted to other forms of energy. Energy is not a thing, it's a conserved equivalence relation. For example, having more potential energy is not the same as having more mass.I have sources:

It's basic physics. Matter is made up of fermions - excitations of fermion quantum fields. As best we know, quantum fields are fundamental. In order to create particles (field excitations) quantum fields must interact, the excitations in one field causing excitations in another. If the excitation is sufficiently large (the relevant quantum), it will persist as what we can observe as a particle. We call the size of an excitation its energy, and a particle is an excitation of a particular size - called a quantum of energy.Still no sources for your musings? Just formulating physics on the fly?
