A scientific law is the math that we observe to be behind a natural occurance.

I was actually kinda suprised to find this article this morning. But I think it helps put this whole debate in perspective and explains my point.
The theory is just the explanation. A theory, as well thought out as it can be, cannot be proven to be true in all circumstances, and/or cannot be observed. |
