Everything that is related to science is based on theories. A theory is a tool that explains a phenomenon or tries to, and then it is endorsed by a practical demonstration. No matter what kind of theory we are talking about, atomic theory, gravitation theory or evolution theory, they all derived from a very extensive observation framework or experimental results. Certain theories are taken by people just as a speculation or a guess. A theory cannot be labeled as right or wrong. It puts forward an assertion and is valid irrespective of the domain it approaches. Consequently, the theory of the concepts of evolution has the same validity as the concepts of gravity or atoms.
The emergence of a theory as a process is similar to the snowball effect.
