Pro-Choice? Animal Testing? I needa debate.

So is it elementary or is it scientific jargon? You just said it was elementary, so I went by the elementary definition of scientific theory. You're right, I didn't know the difference between theory and theorem, and I wasn't even aware that theorem had standard usage outside of mathematics.

And your quote:

I think more effort ought to go into the formation of hypothesis and the conclusion speculated before testing is done. I feel the Scientific community has become entirely too relaxed, going by the current vein of projects.

You should have said that in the first place, rather than claiming that any testing of a more speculative hypothesis "circumvents the scientific process." That's where the argument started.
