I don't think we can use absolutes with these, definitely saying one is true and the other false. While I do believe creationism is false and evolution is true, technically, because of their statuses as "theories", we cannot say that they ARE true or that they ARE false. We can only believe them or not.
No No No NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO A THOUSAND FUCKING TIMES NO.
This is absolute fucking bullshit.
The theory of gravity is 'just a theory'. So is germ theory. So is the theory of general relativity. Are any of them less true because they are theories? No.
You want to dump creationism into the same playing field as the rest of these theories? Then it must be subject to the same testing and results that science demands in order for us to accept it as a factually accurate theory.
Guess what. Creationism fails at proving itself.
Evolution on the other hand, does not, and is a perfect explanation of how species have come to be on this earth, and YES whether people like it or not we've seen and proven that it fucking happens.
That we call any of these things a theory, has NO basis whatsoever on whether they be true or not.
