[QUOTE="Total-KO"][QUOTE="DeeJayInphinity"][QUOTE="Jenovawitness"] Question...
whys it called the THEORY of Evolution?
DeeJayInphinity
If you look up the world "theory," you will notice that it has this meaning under a scientific context:
5: a plausible or scientifically acceptable general principle or body of principles offered to explain phenomena
Theories are not considered fact, you can't achieve "fact" in science, theories can be dethroned by new data or observations. The theory of evolution does not look like it will be proven wrong any time soon.
Umm there are facts which have been achieved. For instance, magnetism.
When it comes to theories, there is no fact.
Obviously, but there are facts in science.
