What do you mean by if "gravity is not a theory why would there be a theory of gravity?" I don't understand.
 
In scientific terms, space pixies would be a hypothesis at best, seeing as there is no evidence at all that space pixies exist. Do you not know the difference between the scientific definition of a theory and the colloquial definition?

If "space pixies" was a hypothesis, it would be a terrible one, scientifically speaking. Tongue
