Sorry, but it's just a fact. Same category.
Under the definitions of science you study, its not a fact. If the Theory of Evolution were a fact, it couldn’t have been debated this long. The proof of being a law would have been announced and the conversation over within the first few posts.
Its an “Agree to disagree” topic. Always has been. I appreciate your civility in dealing with this uneducated religious fanatic. Respect.
Ray,
In science, "Theory" is above fact.
A Theory explains a set of facts.
You must first have the set of facts, before you can develop the Theory that explains the facts.
A Theory does not become a fact. A set of facts lead to a Theory.
