If evolution is indisputably true, why is it not called the Law of Evolution, instead of the theory of evolution? Laws take precedence over theories in science.

nope
a law is just a "physical thereom"

a theory is an extremely nuanced descriptor of phenomenon

I like how person who obviously has no clue how science works is talking about things work in science. Just cause you say it, doesn't make it so.

If something is described as a theory, then that means everyone has failed to disprove it

A law must have universality i think? We can only know as a fact that life in earth evolved.

A law describes a phenomenon, but it doesn't explain how or why it works. Newton's First Law of Motion doesn't explain why an object at rest tends to stay at rest.

The fact that matter in a stable environment with an energy input evolves life is a physical phenomena and could be labeled as the law of evolution.

Hmm, okay, I retract my statement in the OP.
Thanks, /sci/, I admit when I am wrong and change my views.

>If evolution is indisputably true
If it's indisputably true then it's not falsifiable, hence it's not science.
