I suspect that some folks like to misrepresent the nature of theory in science in order to support their own faith.
Seems a pretty weak faith if one feels the need to intentionally misrepresent the nature of theory in science in order to support their faith.



As faith is a belief held without the support of evidence it is a position that needs constant reinforcement, church, fellowship, reading selected material, etc. So if someone questions the faith, they are a threat to the faith.
