Disagreed.
The correct term for the commonly used term "evolution" is natural selection.
It is called "theory" in the scientific sense of theory.
It has consistently been proven. It is theoretical only in the sense that we are constantly learning more about natural selection as we find more evidence for its validity.
"Creationism" has no validity at all.
The theory of evolution, in the human sense, is that things evolve from one species to another. There's no scientific evidence of that, it's all theory. It doesn't follow The Scientific Method, which says that scientists propose hypotheses as explanations of phenomena, and design experimental studies to test these hypotheses via predictions which can be derived from them. These steps must be repeatable, to guard against mistake or confusion in any particular experimenter. Creationism is also only a theory. Neither is experimental and reproducible. Now, if you talk a new breed of dog, etc., that's a fac but that's not evolution. The evolutionists have through the years tried to get people to believe in it by confusing breeding, etc., with changing species. They are entirely different subjects.
