“Everybody that had a decent education in science and mathematics knows that”
You argue like a typical arrogant leftist.
Oh, really? How is that? By stating a truth?
I guess they stopped teaching science and mathematics principles sometime after I left school in the 60's. There's certainly not much evidence that they are teaching scientific and mathematical philosophy in the schools nowadays.
And, me, a leftist? HA!

"You argue like a typical arrogant leftist."
Actually, when it comes to "Proofs" it is in my experience that Math & Logic (Philosophy) are the only areas where these concepts (proof & truth) come into the Science arena.
In math and logic, one assumes that an assertion is "false" and then does what is important in order to prove it is actually not false. (Or is it the other way around?) In any case, a logical proof is done in a systematic fashion, and if something cannot be "proved" to be false, then it is considered true. It has been a long time since I was personally engaged in any such Courses, and the Proofs that are part of getting a passing grade, but it was a lot of fun working on the material back in the day.
Scientific Theory, on the other hand deals with I believe to be an accumulation of data that provides support for the particular theory. The idea being that "Science" is not etched in stone, Unlike for example the "Law" of Moses. In Science, Theories can always be "modified" in order to accommodate new information or data.
There will never be a Law of Evolution, because the concept has to be constantly modified as new information becomes available.
It is all a lot of fun in my opinion, but in the end, my opinion is that TOE is nothing but a bunch of egghead ideas that have been put together in a desperate attempt by really intelligent folks who are determined to show off their smarts while at the same time undermining the education processes all over the world by denying people the opportunity to have their children exposed to real knowledge and a path to potential wisdom.
The Evos are probably all fine people in real life, but when they go out of their way to make my children and grandchildren ignorant, then they become something less than fine people.
They become religious zealots, with an agenda.
