What you put forward are hypotheses. You're incredibly dishonest and I'm done with you. It is only a "theory" in the informal sense, and you're deliberately conflating the definitions in a desperate attempt to give weight to your religious beliefs. Apologetics equals dishonesty, once again.
Maybe one day you will learn what science is, and learn what the theory of evolution is. Because right now you have no clue about either, and you're just making that more and more clear. It is so sad to see religious belief blatantly causing a refusal to learn.
The very first synonym for theory is hypothesis. The very first synonym for hypothesis is theory.
I keep hearing over and over again I do not understand evolutionary theory. I don't perhaps as well as you and others here. It does not matter. All of Evolutionary theory is not fact. It is our best scientifically-based guess as to how we got here based on the facts we know and can test. Again, since evolution (and science in general) is not sufficient to address my list of 8, my conclusion that God exists is reasonable (but not necessary true).
