He definitely should not have lied about his graduation, but as I understand it, he was enforcing the AP Style manual as to the reference of "Theory".

Not exactly: "... The Big Bang is "not proven fact; it is opinion," Mr. Deutsch wrote, adding, "It is not NASA's place, nor should it be to make a declaration such as this about the existence of the universe that discounts intelligent design by a creator."

To a large degree, the "Big Bang" is an established fact in that the universe is shown to be expanding. The first few nanoseconds are in some debate as yet, b ut stating "the Big Bang is opinion not fact" would be like claiming that war in Europe in 1914 was an opinion not fact because you weren't real clear on how it started.
