I know where you're coming from, and I do acknowledge that some theories are
not yet proven.  Some of Einstein's theories, for example, are still being
tested.  Only when atomic clocks were invented were they able to test
whether or not speed does, indeed, effect time.  (it does, by the way)
There are, however, more hurdels for Einstein to pass.  But there *are*
some theories that have been proven.  Evolution, for example, has been
undeniably proven.  I don't want to get into evolution vs. creationism.
it's a pointless argument because after all nothing precludes for
creationism starting evolution off, but there is absoLUTELY no way of saying
that evolution isn't true.  we can watch it happen, we *have* watched it
happen.  It is truth in all senses of the word.
