TOE

[Jimmy]

Why is it called the theory of evolution? Isn’t it fact?

 

[Rival]

A 'theory' in scientific jargon indicates an established understanding, generally. Fact is pretty hardcore.

Rather like the theory of gravity.

All the fossils discovered aren’t hard core enough?

Gravity isn’t the reason ‘it’ hits the floor?

 

[PureX]

Why is it called the theory of evolution? Isn’t it fact?

Science cannot presume certitude. It does not propose a theory to be 'what is', but rather to be 'what works' in the circumstance.

 

[ChristineM]

Gravity isn’t the reason ‘it’ hits the floor?

It is. Unless it is deliberately thrown to the floor

 

[sun rise]

"TOE" is usually thought of as "Theory of Everything". What Is the Theory of Everything?

 

[Jimmy]

It is. Unless it is deliberately thrown to the floor

How can you say it is when it isn’t fact apparently?

 

[ChristineM]

How can you say it is when it isn’t fact apparently?

I could say try walking off a cliff but i wont. Once you learn the meaning of scientific theory come back and try again.

Oh, as a side note. The art of flying is simply throwing yourself at the ground and missing

Theories are explanations of evidence.

There is a theory explaining the facts of evolution.

 

[Dan From Smithville]

Gravity isn’t the reason ‘it’ hits the floor?

What is the reason then? Do you have another theory?

 

[Dan From Smithville]

It is. Unless it is deliberately thrown to the floor

Gravity would still be involved.

 

[Dan From Smithville]

How can you say it is when it isn’t fact apparently?

What is not a fact?

 

[Jimmy]

Science cannot presume certitude. It does not propose a theory to be 'what is', but rather to be 'what works' in the circumstance.

I know all that I’m just wondering why it hasn’t moved into the world the facts

 

[Jimmy]

What is the reason then? Do you have another theory?

I Believe you may want to reread My post

 

[Dan From Smithville]

I Believe you may want to reread My post

It has not helped. I still do not know what you think causes an object to fall.

So you’re pretty certain

 

[Subduction Zone]

A distraction can help.

What is the reason then? Do you have another theory?

Lack of squirrels?

 

[Jimmy]

It has not helped.
