A theory means there is still information that has not been definitivly sought or found while a fact has all information on a subject. Many facts within science are really only theories that will change with added information. No one can know everything but many believe they already do.
Who told you that? You know, if you had read this thread through you might have come across what the difference is when discussing scientific terminologies. You are making Theory and fact as different levels on a scale of certainty. Don't do that. You will fall in to a trap. Just helping you out.
So is gravity, electromagnetism, Quantum theory, Germ Theory, Thermodynamics, Photosynthesis, Periodic Table of the Elements, Relativity, Acoustics, Chaos Theory, Number theory, Cell Theory, Decision theory and Circuit Theory.
Be so good as to indicate which of the above 'theories' you don't accept because 'they are only theories'.

I tried to tell my music theory teacher that I didn't believe in music and that the class was just a bunch of wild guesses and speculation and it wasn't even real and has never been proven, so it's never been shown to exist, because it is just a theory. She didn't buy it.
LOL, you are both taking your understand vs my understanding to an inappropriat level and it is funny how you defend you opinions while ignoring the facts.

What has you LOL-ing about being on the same page when discussing scientific terms? I mean, even AiG understands the folly of the "just a theory" argument. How do you expect your arguments to have merit or even be persuasive, if you are unfamiliar with the terminology?
Of course not, 'just a theory' is a dead give away. The age of the earth is also a measurement.
In science theory doesnt mean theory... this is what people dont understand...
theory is already a proven or accepted fact.
Hypothesis in science means theory in normal day to day.
you first have a hypothesis, once you prove it to be true, it becomes a theory...
This started a long time ago, when theory never was always proven, but then the church decided to change the meaning of the word...
