There’s no evidence of anything since we can’t know anything beyond our thoughts.

Because they have a very strict idea of what a theory is. Gravity is a theory. Magnetism is a theory. Basically a theory is 0.999... true.

the scientific definition of a theory and the layman definition of a theory aren't the same. the layman definition is more like a hypothesis; an unsubstantiated idea.

Doubtful. Scientists don't use the phrase "just a theory".
