I understand a lot more than you know and also would say that all data about a subject should always be questioned. When you quit questioning data you have lost your path to new discovery. All discovery is started by questioning theroies others have had. Science is a building process that begins with a question. Untill all questions are answered (on gaps) a theory is not fact. There has to be some truth in it for theory to form but saying something is " simply are not true" is odd to me, you or I can't know the truth we can only come up with a theory of what the truth is.Yes you are getting a bit of a lecture on science, because you don't understand the basics, you clearly have done some reading, but you also clearly do not have the basic background to actually understand it. I am not claiming I have all the information, and I have no doubt you know a lot that I don't on a whole ton of subjects. However you have made it abundantly clear that on this subject you are not knowledgeable. You claim no one can prove there are no gaps in the chain of life, yet you clearly have no formal science background. That seems a little arrogant to me, I would certainly not ever claim that no one could prove there are no gaps in string theory, because I don't have enough knowledge of that faucet of physics. As for your opinion, you are free to have your own opinion, no one is forcing you not to, however when you make claims about things that simply are not true (such as what constitutes a theory in science) expect to be corrected.
