Actually, MUCH in science is "proven", using scientific method and repeatable tests/demonstrations.

It's THEORIES which are not "proven" because they CANNOT be readily demonstrated on a repeatable basis. Things such as darwminism, which is based soley on assumption and inference, not scientifically verifiable fact, CLEARLY fall into the hypothesis/theory category.

Evolution does NOT happen every day; in fact, it DOESN'T happen. I do not consider "natural selection" within a species to be evolution. No short-hair, low body fat wild dogs in arctic climates is perfectly logical, but it is in no way evolution!

Sorry but you don’t get to define the terms used in Science.

Ouch. You need to learn about the scientific method.

Yes, it's true that no theory is ever "proven;" however, this has nothing to do with their ability to be readily demonstrated on a repeatable basis. Atomic theory, germ theory, heliocentricity, and evolution are a few theories, all readily demonstratable (and in fact demonstrated) on a repeatable basis.

You do have confidence in atomic theory, correct? Or is it "just a theory?"
