In the end as I said we could drag this on for 3 months like I have with others. Or we can admit you know what I am not smarter then everyone else, I don't know all the answers and the theories I believe in are exactly that "Theories".
When I refered to uneducated Athiests I was refering to those who don't know about any other theories then their own. Their are many uneducated Creationists as well. But no matter how much education you have you can't prove Creationist or Evolutionist Theology as fact.

Except that what you are refering to are not theories at all....

How are they not theories? I can come up with a theory and it is a theory. A hypothesis is a theory. Just because you don't believe it doesn't make it any less of a theory. Now you could try and argue it is not a scientific theory but their is scientific evidence to support the majority of creationist theories.
Its fairly narrow minded to write off everything anyone else believes because you do not. I am Christian yet I think many of the teachings found in Buddhism are very helpful and agree with many of them. You can't write off someone else's theories as not being theories simply because you personally disagree.
What would have happened to galileo if everyone just stuck with their theories. If nobody questioned the Earth being flat what would the world be like today?
You can't just blindly believe one theory and write the rest off as whack jobs. A theory is a theory and creationist theories are no less theories then evolutionist theories.
Heck Richard Dawkins himself mentioned the theory that aliens seeded life on earth. So that is a theory but an intelligent designer isn't a theory? What kind of logic is that? Richard Dawkins called it a scientific theory on national television are you saying he's a nut job? Because if aliens seeding life on earth is a scientific theory then yes intelligent design is also a theory, it holds alot more water then aliens planting life on earth.

Eh.... no. You can't jsut come up with something and call it a theory. There is also a very good distinction between a theory and a hypothesis. Given creationism means god, I am going to go off on a limb and say that there are no scientific theory that comes even close to proving existance of god. You know what the best part about a theory is? It doesn't matter WHAT you belive in a theory will remain true, whether you like it or not.
P.S. Aliens seeding life on Earth is not a theory either.....

Well thats opinion because Dawkins himself called it a theory and he is one of the most respected Athiest scientists on the earth today.
"What you believe in, a theory will remain true, whether you like it or not" - Thats not a theory thats a scientific fact. Their is a major difference between fact and theory, theories can be proven false or correct. Once they are proven false or correct they stop being theories. Well actually Science 10 text books still called them theories just theories that were proven false and some correct.
You are confusing theories with facts. a Scientific fact is something that can be falsified, repeated, observed and studied. A scientific theory is a theory based on scientific fact.
Just by reading your wording you seem to be confused. Their are many scientific theories that support the existance of God. Their just aren't any scientific facts that can prove the existance of one 100%. Their are many scientific and non-scientific theories that support Darwinism and other athiest idealogies. But no scientific facts that prove Macro Evolution or many other evolution theories to be 100%.
Scientific fact and scientific theory are two different things. But by your writing you believe the two are the same!
