Again, a lot of words that means sweet nothing.
No. Instead, a factual response to your nonsense.
A theory in science is a
graduated hypothesis. It is the highest level an idea in science can get to. It's not the case that "really good theories" are promoted to fact or law. Instead, theories EXPLAIN facts and laws.
Theories and facts are NOT the same thing. Facts weren't theories and theories don't become facts.
Instead, theories EXPLAIN facts.
Theories are never considered "proven" either. Theories can only ever be
supported or
disproven.
Check how your atheist scientists want to change the word THEORY to fact
Atheism has nothing whatsoever to do with scientific jargon and concepts.
Here are a few examples:
- atomic theory
- theory of plate tectonics
- theory of relativity
- evolution theory
- heliocentric theory
- big bang theory
- germ theory of desease
- ...
All these are
scientific theories.
They aren't just some guesses or hunches.
Instead, they are all well supported models that account for all the facts within their well-defined scope and which make testable predictions that check out when tested. They are
confirmed hypothesis.
None of these will ever be promoted to "fact", because
science doesn't work that way.
Explanatory models and facts are
different things.
Facts are just collections of data.
Explanatory models
explain this data.
In everyday use, the word "theory" often means an untested hunch, or a guess without supporting evidence. But for scientists, a theory has nearly the opposite meaning. A theory is a well-substantiated explanation of an aspect of the natural world that can incorporate laws, hypotheses and facts. The theory of gravitation, for instance, explains why apples fall from trees and astronauts float in space. Similarly, the theory of evolution explains why so many plants and animals--some very similar and some very different--exist on Earth now and in the past, as revealed by the fossil record.
Exactly. So remember it in the future.
Just notice how this fool takes the theory of evolution to the same scale as the well proven scientific fact of Gravity!
Actually, the theory of evolution is magnitudes more solid then the theory of gravity - which is not the same as the fact of gravity. The theory of gravity is basically relativity: the curvature of space time. That's the EXPLANATION of gravity, of how it works.
Likewise, there are the facts of evolution: observed speciation, change over generations, nested hierarchies in genetics and anatomy, geographic distribution of species, etc.
Then there is the THEORY of evolution, which explains how these things come about (reproduction with variation + selection, in a nutshell).
The workings of gravity isn't nearly as well understood as the workings of evolutionary biology is.
You all have to push to get evolution, the theory of, as scientific fact, now the atheist changes the meaning to something else.
It seems you are still very confused concerning the words "facts" and "theory" in scientific context.
I also find it quite hilarious how it's so painfully obvious that you simply reject an and all science that doesn't fit your creationist narrative, while claiming that your creationist narrative agrees with science.
It's quite ridiculous.
Evolution explains zero, nothing, only evolutionists explains evolution as the reason why there are such a huge varaity of life!
Evolution explains why the human spine isn't really fit for bipedalism, giving 70% of humans lower back pains at some point.
It explains why the human mouth is to small to fit all the teeth, which can necessitate a need to pull the wisdom teeth.
It explains why the human eye is backwards with a blind spot, requiring extra energy being consumed by your brain to "rectify" the image.
It explains why humans have a broken GULO gene - broken in the exact same way as the other great apes.
It explains why you only find koala's and kangaroo's in australia.
It explains why humans need new flu shots every year.
etc etc etc etc etc.
It explains pretty much everything concerning biological traits and the distribution of them.
Next to that, it also makes ridiculously accurate predictions. Like when it was used to predict the existance, traits, location and age of the then still unknown species of tiktaalik, among others.
The explanatory power of evolution theory is actually quite unmatched throughout the scientific world.
Physics doesn't have it's unified field theory - which incidently is one of the reasons why we still don't really understand gravity properly. Well, at least not in such a way that we can unify it with the other forces.
Biology however, DOES have it's unified field theory. It's evolution theory.
I also have a theory of where life came from.
God created it.
1. that's not a theory. It's not even a proper hypothesis, because it can't be tested nore falsified. So it seems you already failed to understand @Subduction Zone 's explanation of the flow diagram representing the scientific method midway... So what you have there, is nothing but a bare unsupported fantastical claim
2. evolution explains the DIVERSITY of life, not its origins.
it's not. And by now you still don't comprehend why it's not, I'm seeing only 3 options that might explain that:
1. you are simply too stupid to comprehend the basics of science. I don't think it's the case, but it certainly could be the case.
2. you are so dogmatically entrenched in your religious belief that your own subconscious simply prevents you from even trying to undertand the basics of science. I think this one is most likely
3. you actually do comprehend the basics of science, but you are just trolling. It hink this one is unlikely because nobody would be so dedicated to trolling.
, and yours are a very bad theory indeed.
So bad, that it explains everything and predicts things like the existance and properties and location and age of 360 million year old unknown species, which then is found in the exact location with the exact properties and age as predicted.
