Any person with an IQ greater then a grapefruit knows that evolution is NOT fact it is a theory and that is why it is referred to as the theory of evolution and can never be proven.

I am not going to voice my opinion on whether or not I personally believe in evolution, however, I should say that evolution is taught in schools as both a fact and a theory.

The observed changes in organisms over time are considered the ‘facts’ of evolution. The explanations and unifications of those ‘facts’ are part of the larger ‘theory’ of evolution.

In some branches of science, a ‘theory’ does not mean a guess or hypothesis. A theory is defined as a some sort of organized system of explanations for a certain phenomenon.

Other theories include General/Special Relativity and Newton’s Theory of Gravity
