It does say “Theory” which is to say no basis on fact or proof, just abstractions based upon perceived observations and imagination; whereas Theorems are derivations of logic, proof and existing evidence to provide a solution to real world situations.
That’s just my opinion, I could be wrong.
Yeah, Jon … What LordDogmore said. >D
Radical-Knight: I have a “theory” that you exist based on images on my computer screen. But since it’s “just a theory,” I have to conclude that you don’t exist. Makes sense to me.
Actually, for a lot of religious people (like myself), “theistic evolution” is very appealing as a personal belief, though we wouldn’t want it taught in public schools.
… So, Satan came from Darwinist evolution and, God couldn’t do any better than a couple of stick figures? I’m not sure if I’ve been enlightened or insulted ! ! !

theorem are not antithetical to theories, indeed they can be an idea accepted or proposed as a demonstrable truth often as a part of a general theory

Good one, Wiley! Assuming you’re goal is to make everyone laugh, I will offer this….
Science will prove the existance of God long before religion does.

The Compromise Conjecture. a suggestion
Not a hypothesis, as it cannot be tested.
Not a theory, as it has not been successfully tested.
Not a law, as it has not been repeatedly tested by different methods, always successfully.
