You realise layman and scientific use and definition of the word 'theory' is entirely different, right?

Who am I kidding, clearly you don't. However, please Google it because the embarrassing lack of distinction amongst many Christians is a dead horse beaten beyond recognition.

I mean realy !?
No, not really. Scientists accept evolution because it explains and predicts a vast range of observations about the physical world. That you don't understand the theory and don't care about the evidence is your problem, not ours.

Scientific Theory: A scientific theory is an explanation of some aspect of the natural world that can, in accordance with the scientific method, be repeatedly tested, using a predefined protocol of observations and experiments. Established scientific theories have withstood rigorous scrutiny and are a comprehensive form of scientific knowledge.

A "scientific theory" does not have the same meaning as the general vernacular use of the word "theory" and the two uses really can't be used interchangeably. Using them in this way on purpose is intentionally deceptive and incorrect.

your kidding only yourself..sorry no cigar !

I'm not kidding anyone. It's a very common and well-known fact.

If it's really too much trouble for you to enlighten your own understanding of the matter, I'd be happy to locate the definitions for you in the widely available dictionaries.

Please let me know if you're open to learning or alternatively if your opinion, which is what it is, is all that matters.
