No, but it is helpful to understand what "theory" means in the context of science, as too many people seem to think that it implies a status of little more than a guess.

And there is another set of people who regard it as "an irrefutable fact, never to be challenged because science says so."

Perhaps a quote from one of these people to illustrate your point?
