Darwin's theory is actually a hypothesis.

No, it isn't.

It has never been proven, therefore the "Theory" classification is intellectually dishonest.

You demonstrate a fundamental lack of understanding of science here. No "theory" in science is "proven". Theories cannot be proven. Theories in science have not been proven and they will never be proven. That is not how science works.

I suspect the misclassification was adopted by Atheists who are afraid of Christians

Yet another dishonest creationist equivocates acceptance of evolution as a theory with atheism. Why do creationists lie so much?

Why else would they feel they must keep school children from hearing the word of God? What are you so afraid of?

Why are you bringing up a discussion of atheism versus Christianity when the topic at hand is evolution versus Intelligent Design? I know that a number of dishonest creationist sources claim otherwise, but not everyone who accepts evolution is an atheist. The majority of those who accept the theory of evolution as valid are theists.

If your side were so sure God did not exist,

You are dishonestly misrepresenting "my side", so nothing you draw from this statement has any meaning. Is your position so abysmally weak that you have to lie about those who don't agree with you?

I know that some dishonest creationist is going to jump on this and claim I meant something other than what I really meant, so I need to clarify now that when I say that evolution is not a hypothesis, I mean that evolution has moved far beyond the "hypothesis" stage and is now a well-accepted and well-established theory.
