It isn't even a believable theory.

There are those who maintain there is scientific evidence. They are convinced that God exists, so the evidence seems very convincing to them and if you follow their line of logic the same way they do, it looks well put together. But God's existence is truly verified by Faith, so if you do not have Faith, there is nothing in their evidence that will convince you. There is nothing that passes the scientific test - just some evidence the faithful feel confirm their belief. The belief is not really a theory though, belief does not require proof.

God does not qualify as a theory in the scientific sense. Perhaps we mean is Christianity (a method to describe God) a theory?
To be a theory, it has to be falsifiable, meaning it must be subject to review based upon later data that either providing supporting or nonsupporting evidence (in which case the theory must be reworked). The Christian view of God denies it is subject to any such review.
In my own case, I have an "experience" of God/Deity that I know is subjective and not subject to such review. I must, therefore keep a dualism with one standard of evidence for the physical world and another standard for the spiritual.

People have put God in many scientific theories. It's not likely to be proven to the mass. But to individuals it is proven all the time.

Well, God is a belief. The term "theory" implies scientific, or at least rational, analytical, perhaps even logical. None of that applies to "faith," which is belief in the absence of evidence, or even in the face of evidence to the contrary.

No. God is a HYPOTHESIS. A theory is a hypothesis that is thoroughly tested and generally accepted as fact but still continuously tested. The concept of a god cannot be tested nor proven, and science does NOT accept it as fact.

It's definitely not a scientific theory. I see it as an assumption

Evolution is just a theory too. It's not been proven beyond doubt.
I can't speak for other religions besides Christianity (and by no means am I any sort of spokesman for it), but the life and teachings of Jesus Christ have been documented as historical facts. It's up to the individual to decide if He is or isn't God incarnate. (Put me in the "He is" column.)

God isn't a scientific theory..
I would describe it as more of an emotional theory.

It all depends on how you were raised and taught... Your parents are the real teachers... They often should lead by example...but most parents are lost and confused as you are... Your question is quite odd... The only way I can answer is too maybe look into EVOLUTION of man... You know Apes and monkeys... They're as confused as we are. Maybe you should rephrase your question to get the answer you're looking for... Good day and happy holidays

Divine revelation is empirical evidence reported by a lot of cultures, both old and new, all around the world even in places where communities are isolated.
