Anyone feel like telling this maroon that theories explain how - not why - phenomena occur, that they are made up of facts and laws, and that no amount of testing will turn a theory into a fact because they are totally different things (it would be like expecting a painting of a sunset to turn into the real landscape)?

Because clearly s/he doesn't reaise that.
ALTER2EGO -to- STIMBO:
Wait a minute, at Post 118, I was correcting Esquilax who told me that evolution is a fact. But I get the privilege of being referred to as a "maroon"? Interesting.

Below is the weblink to Post 118, followed by a quotation of what Esquilax said.

You know, that "the earth was once thought to be X, therefore science can't be trusted" argument is so flawed; once we had the ability to test it it became pretty quickly clear that a flat earth, or a geocentric universe, or whatever else was untenable.

But when we gained the ability to test evolution, multiple times over since we've developed genetic, geological and observational tests since the inception of the theory, evolution only becomes a more clear fact. We keep running tests... and those tests keep confirming that evolution is true.
