To claim that evolution can someday be disproven is to claim that we will all awake someday to discover that Science has, finally, discovered the Earth to be flat. While theoretically possible, such is vastly, vastly improbable.

I think when people talk about the "theory of evolution" today, they include natural selection as a key part of this.
Mendel didn't know about this. Darwin figured it out.
Actually, Mendel knew a great deal about Darwin and his theory of natural selection.
