    You are mistaking evidence of something for a test. In order to move from a hypothesis to a theory, you must be able to reproduce or create experiments. Because evolution is a billions-of-years activity, it can’t be tested. So while it’s likely a fact, we really can’t even call it a theory unless you’ve got a billion years or so to create a test.

      Dude, look up the E. Coli evolution study. It’s an experiment showing evolution in action.

      It is a scientific theory. Just like gravity.

        Very interesting. Got way too much into the weeds for me to follow all the way through, but point taken.
