In science, the word "theory" does not mean the same thing as it does in the detective novels you read, where a "theory" is an educated guess based on a few circumstantial facts.

Question: Do you just walk around, positing that the phenomenon of gravity is "just a theory?" Do you think the belief that microorganisms cause disease is "just another theory?" Is our understanding of atoms "just a theory?"

No, these are well-substantiated explanations, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed. Walking around, suggesting that evolution is "just a theory" is no more absurd than saying any of the above are "just theories," and makes you look like a complete retard.
