I was repsonding to a previous poster's claim that macroevolution was more than theory

And you referred to a hypothetical "Law of Evolution". Laws are not "more" than theories. Laws are simply different kinds of statements. Laws are no more certain or "better" than theories in science.

Apparently you have been taught differently than I have been (and I have never gone to a religious school). I was taught that there is a distinct difference between scientific theory and law. Law can be observed and is therefore worthy to be unconditionally believed.
