I think you are missing my point. The scientific data is irrelevant as it cannot ever prove the "scientific theory" to be true. Without being able to prove the truth of their statement(s), a theory is in reality nothing more than an opinion.
Treated as true is not the same as being true...
Again sorry to go off topic. I think you have confused evolution (fact) with the theory of evolution (theory). See just because some things have evolved (fact) that does not mean everything evolved from one thing (theory). No one is asking you to change your opinion on the matter, however...
Actually I believe my description was pretty accurate. A hypothesis is an opinion. A theory is an accepted opinion. A theory may be "backed up with data" (Not always the case). It may also be generally accepted as true. However that does not make the theory itself is true.
While I don't feel...
