why is it universally called a "theory"? It is called a therory to expose people who do not understand science.
The theory behind this is that people who do not understand science will apply the laymen's defintion of "theory" to the word and thus reveal their lack of understanding about science.

It is called a therory to expose people who do not understand science.I'm glad you explained that therory (sic) of that theory to we unscientific rubes out her in flyoverland.
I guess that means to "scientists" plain words don't mean what plain words mean.
Thanks for the tip!

It is a THEORY because it can't be proved.
