Again, my beliefs in which is right or wrong are not involved in this. I don't know which is right. I wasn't there. No one was. For either set of events.

I believe in science. I believe that gravity and chemistry and most of the laws of Physics and Quantum Mechanics and those other things are valid, observable theories, and as such, I will even accept them as fact. It's how we put men on the moon and satellites on asteroids. I have NO problem with science.

But just because The Theory contains elements of science, and many other theories of science (geology to name a good example) are based on The Theory, that does not make The Theory itself science. The Theory was not observed to happen, nor do we see it happen now. We see elements of The Theory in other places. One can SPECULATE that The Theory is PROBABLY correct, BASED on evidence we see. But the fact is, we simply don't know. And I have a big problem with presenting a theory that is not proven to be irrefuteably true as Science. It is not science. It is a theory within science, using science as a basis for comparison.
