They should. Since they like to deny theories, then those theories don't exist.
And jane_749, you are wrong. A theory doesn't mean "guess". A theory is a set of statements or principles devised to explain a group of facts or phenomena, especially one that has been repeatedly tested and can be used to make predictions about natural phenomena. The earth revolving around the sun is a theory. And that too is contradicted by the Bible.

Again, this must be the 1,000th time I've said this in here. There is a fundamental misunderstanding of the meaning of the word "theory" in the context of science.
A theory is a work in progress based on an observable body of evidence. There are literally mountains of evidence from just about every scientific discipline supporting the theory of evolution.
Science cannot explain everything, but that's no reason to squeeze "god did it" into the gaps... that raises more questions than it answers (which god? does god exist? how did god do it? why did god do it? etc etc etc.)
Anyone who says science is in favor of believers hasn't been reading real science books. Kent Hovind and Michael Behe are not practicing science... they are pseudo-scientists. They reverse the scientific method to fit the evidence to their hypothesis and without much support at all.

Dude...gravity is a law...just as the third law of thermal dynamics which states that within time everything falls apart. Yet there's a theory that say within time things get better. So what do I beleive, scientific law OR an idea from a person who admitted he was full of shite before he died.
get more informed before you show case yourself to be an ignorant fool in front of people.
There's no such thing as a stupid question...just stupid people.

Gravity is a law. Evolution is a theory. A law is proven, but a theory is a guess that is not proven. That's why creationists don't jump off skyscrapers. But why does anybody invest so much in this theory?

As specific, yet gravity is observable. Even my 4 year previous newborn knows that gravity is genuine because of fact while he drops issues they fall. not so with evolution. it is not so easily observable. What we word is organisms adapting and changing, yet we've never seen them substitute right into a thoroughly new form of organism. Birds adapt to a clean climate yet they're nevertheless birds even after many generations. comparable with human beings. comparable with all different species on earth. They adapt yet they're nevertheless the unique species. there grew to become into an test achieved at present with micro organism. They sped up the enhance technique and watched a specimen of micro organism bypass by way of around 30,000 generations. in the tip, it had stepped forward a clean potential: it ought to metabolize the medium it grew to become into grown in. It hadn't been waiting to try this till now. regardless of if it had not replaced into some thing different; it grew to become into nevertheless a petri dish of micro organism, and it grew to become into even nevertheless the same "sort" of micro organism it grew to become into before everything. we can see "microevolution" - existence varieties changing and adapting. That, I wholeheartedly consider. yet we do exactly not see existence varieties transforming into an entire new species. that's not observable and is in fact in basic terms an thought.

What does creationism have to do with not accepting gravity?
I think you are ill informed about Creationism.
Maybe you ought to stop getting all your info from late night TV shows, Pal.

When a theory is PROVEN it's called a LAW!
Try disproving the LAW of gravity first, silly.

if they say, gravity is just a theory, does not mean that things dont fall down.. all it means is that the reason for it is just a theory.

If you had a "theory" that a certain liquid was poisonous and I disagreed, I still probably wouldn't drink it.
or
The logic behind your question is flawed.

Gravity is seen, MACRO-evolution is not.
Hope that wasn't too complicated an answer.
