>not realizing a theory has to have sufficient evidence to be called a theory in the scientific community and not any idea gets called a theory.
You've got a better claim, test it, find evidence, and present it. See how well it does compared to Evolution.

I don't have a better claim but it is foolish to just accept things and the evidence found in favor of the theory is not a direct cause of all the claims and they are effects of what was presumed to be the cause when in fact different causes can have the same effect.
-
So, you don't have a better claim, but you're rejecting the best theory we have because.....? Guess what, it has the best support of any claim so far and it's got no real contestants. It might get debunked or something might have to be changed about it, but until then we support it and test it to see how well it holds up, and it holds up better than anything else, so we go with it.
-
I'm not outright rejecting I am staying skeptical. If people are not skeptical then the theory will never be challenged and never be improved to find out what really happened. People should not just outright say that" this theory is a fact and people who don't 100% believe in it are morons" because this theory even being one of the more sustainable ones is not conclusive.

THE THEORY HAS AND IS STILL CHALLENGED. Holy crap, do you think once Darwin wrote it down and dug up some rocks they just went, "Shit we solved it, pack it up we're done here for all eternity"? Nobody is saying believe it 100%, I'm telling you it's the best we have so believing it now is smart because there is no contesting theory, but believing something doesn't mean giving it your all. If it's not the best, then what is? You claim things and do not back them up, how researched in the subject even are you? You say the fossil record is all the theory has for support, have you learned how that's wrong yet? Research it before saying things like this.

According to Dawkins yes it's chalked up and to believe otherwise is stupidity
-
Or I can wait until the evidence is conclusive before choosing to believe it. I've also made no claims and have no need to back up what I did not make.

[quote]The fossil record is not adequate evidence and that's pretty much the only thing in the way of proof the theory has to back it up. [/quote] Gee, glad that's not a claim.
