Prioritizing.

I'm doing more on my Facebook page to drum up business.  You know what that means?  This will be my secondary writing for the day. 

Here's something that's been bugging me lately, the use of the word "theory".  Some people think that evolution is false because scientists have stated that it's a "scientific theory".  In science theory means that with all the evidence that we have now, we believe this to be true.

I was reading a book recently and a minor character told someone that "there were no bugs in the room...".  What was understood by the character was that with his technology and skill he couldn't find any, there may be some but he couldn't find them.  The character stated a theory.

Part of the understood and hidden meaning of theory is that it can't really be proved because we can always learn more stuff to change our theory.
