A theory is something that hasn't been solidly proven YET. If you press any scientist against a corner he'll admit that this is fact: evolution is just a theory. This is the point that is often lost in the shuffle.....a theory is only a sum of best guesses. Oh dear...how many times do I have to post the s-c-i-e-n-t-i-f-i-c definition of a theory before you get it? "The scientific definition of the word "theory" is different from the colloquial sense of the word. Colloquially, "theory" can mean a conjecture, an opinion, or a speculation that does not have to be based on facts or make testable predictions. In science, the meaning of theory is more rigorous: a theory must be based on observed facts and make testable predictions. In science, a current theory is a theory that has no equally acceptable or more acceptable alternative theory, and has survived attempts at falsification. That is, there have been no observations made which contradict it to this point." Are we clear now? Evolution is both theory and fact. You don't need to post your definition at all, C.C., because I have posted what I regard as the definition of a theory. I didn't mention 'scientific' anything; there ARE other things in the world, ya know? Are we clear now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because you regard a theory as something that may or may not be true does not mean that that is actually how it is. You have no authority to proclaim how to define something. ps.-evolution is TRUE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is because evolutionists change their facts to fit their theory whenever they are about to be contradicted and their theory proven false. Are we clear now?

Well, whatever takes up your time I guess. I would use it for more important things, but that's just me. It IS a conspiracy but it's not a theory....everyone knows the root of the denial of Creation.

There are and have been mutations that have occurred, that is not evolution, it is what it is, a mutation. If evolution were a fact it would be a scientific 'law', not a theory.

Evolutionists everywhere: Admit there is a God who created all things and this debate will come to a end!! I mean really, after seeing everything there is on earth and even more in the Universe, how could they have not been Created!!! This scripture is applicable to everyone with the Evolutionary mindset: Romans 1:18-22 (AMP) 18 For God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
