There's a difference between the theory of evolution and the fact of evolution borne out by the fossil record.
Using your definition, even gravity is a "theory", yet things still fall to the ground when we drop them from above.
- Ngunyan 8y agoThe difference between the theory of evolution and the "theory of gravity" is that tests about gravity are reproducible and repeatable, but not tests on evolutionary theory. One can not test/replicate evolution happening over millions of years. This is why evolution will forever be a theory. Evolution is not a fact. Its a post-facto explanation, where fossils are made to fit a theory.
