The scientific method is used to prove a hypothesis to be true under experimentation that can be qualified or quantified, observed, and then concluded into theory; and if that theory can be repeated and observed over an extended period, that theory becomes scientific law. ...and that's what evolution is: a theory.

  • Theories do not become laws. That has never happened. You'll notice that there is the Law of Gravity, and a Theory of Gravity. One is describing a physical phenomenon, the other is explaining the phenomenon (ie, Law of Gravity is F=(Gmm1)/r^2, whereas the theory of gravity describes gravitons and relativity).

  • In science, scientific theory is held above laws most of the time. Gravity, atomic theory, germ theory, all are factual based on overwhelming physical evidence. So frustrating that these morons can't comprehend that the reason they stay theories, is you never know when new information, or discoveries may come along to add knowledge to a specific theory. Which is to say, we know how gravity works here on earth, and some of its dynamics in space, but not all, it's still a mystery. With that said, evolution is a more sound theory than gravity, because we have mountains of compelling, conclusive evidence for it, more than we have for gravity. Not to mention the PHYSICAL evidence we have for evolution, that you can see, touch, even lick, if you wanted. Btw, where is a single shred of evidence for intelligent design? (crickets) ... And don't be the simple minded Christian that says " just look around outside at how complex and beautiful the world is, has to be a God", because the thing that is evidence of is, how of low intelligence, and simple minded you are.

  • Agreed. Imagine if we find out that "gravity" is actually some form of magnetism or something. ANTIGRAV CONFIRMED THEN
