We've heard it all before.
There is no concrete evidence for theories, that is why they are still theories.
I think you would be better off asking for proofs and not theories.
I say we explore 100% truths, that way we don't go in circles.

Theries are backed up by evidence.

Theories are backed up by proof.
I've got the Irony meter with ten secound delay. If I read fast enough I can hit the botton and save it.
I was wondering if any techs out there know if I can wire a Bullshit Meter before the Irony Meter or would that just keep setting off my Redundant Meter?
Theory:A scientific theory is a series of statements about the causal elements for a real world observation, these include explanations and predictions that can be tested. Usually, theories are large bodies of work that has resulted from many contributors and are often built up over time. They unify the scientific community's view and approach to a particular scientific field. For example; biology has the theory of evolution and cell theory, geology has plate tectonic theory and cosmology has the Big Bang. The development of theories is a key element of the scientific method as they are used to make predictions about the world, and if the predictions fail, the theory is revised. Theories are the main goal in science and no explanation can achieve a higher "rank" (contrary to the belief that "theories" become "laws" over time).
Only in fundie Strawmans doe "theory" mean wild geuss. Even when a theory is proven correct, we still call it a theory. It's just a correct theory.
Right, circles like: The Bible says that God said that the Bible is true.
A dictionary.
Read one.
Idiot.
Dearie, in science-speak proof is called evidence and truths are called theories.
If you don't want to go in circles, then stay well away from literal interpretations of the Bible.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
