You do realize that some theories will forever remain theories because, ultimately, they can't be proven.

All theories will either remain theories or be discarded. There is nothing higher than "theory". Nothing in science is ever "proven".

Evolution has been a 'theory' for what... more than 150 years?

What else would it become?

Beyond theory there might be a 'law' of nature. But, you stated it yourself, a theory can be discarded. Why would that be? Could it be that new explanations to observations were found, or measurements proved a theory to actually be wrong? If a theory stands a chance of being proved wrong, then it merits to be called a 'speculation' rather than a theory.

And, since I'm not very religious, if at all, I can't rightly consider myself a creationist. And, since I haven't observed and 'intelligent designer' at work, I can't consider myself and "ID" advocate either.

I was at one time a heavy believer of evolution theory. It made a lot of sense. But, as science progresses and the complexities of life are discovered, I become more and more skeptical of the theory and convinced that 'evolution theory' will never answer the questions of life and how it started and how it really 'evolved', if it evolved at all.
