Andre, actually, in the scientific method, a group of hypothesis that are verified and supported by a series of repeated tests will only then become a theory, which is a generally accepted explanation of natural phenomena and is considered fact. I think you have this confused with the non-scientific explanation which is an unproven assumption, even though it is based on logic. For example, Einstein's theory of Relativity was only a hypothesis until it was proven to be accurate after multiple experiments were performed to verify its accuracy, at which time it became an accepted scientific theory. The theory of Evolution is a "scientific theory" because it has been proven time and time again to be a valid explanation for the development of life on this planet. It is supported by the fossil record and has been verified by the decoding of the genome.
