    [quote]Gravity is a theory...[/quote] *Merriam looks in dictionary.* Finds "gravity": the force that attracts a body toward the center of the earth, or toward any other physical body having mass. For most purposes Newton's laws of gravity apply, with minor modifications to take the general theory of relativity into account. *scratches head*

    I concur that is the diffenition which is based on theory.. the·o·ry \ˈthē-ə-rē, ˈthir-ē\ noun : an idea or set of ideas that is intended to explain facts or events : an idea that is suggested or presented as possibly true but that is not known or proven to be true : the general principles or ideas that relate to a particular subject

  • I'm still going to point out that whoever this person is (not you) pointed to the fact that he stated gravity was a theory. I know that's not true, you know that's not true, everyone who has ever been on Earth knows that's not true. So why would you even have an issue with this?
