The conversation between human and AI assistant.
Why is evolution considered a “theory” and not a “fact” in Western societies?
That's a good point. Do other scientific theories face similar challenges in terms of acceptance and understanding?
Yes, many scientific theories face similar challenges. Climate change, for example, is a well-supported theory that is still debated and denied by some people. Like evolution, it's important to teach critical thinking skills and emphasis the scientific method in order to increase public understanding and appreciation of scientific theories.
