Fixed for you.
As you yourself stated, a theory is close to fact, which means it isn't fact.

Really it is not. On one hand you have something that is a fact and on the other hand you have something that is close to a fact. Are these claims made with the same amount of scientific certainty?
There is a reason why science uses terms like this. It is because they accurately describe the level of knowledge the scientific community has amassed about the subject. By blurring the lines, you are making a false argument, even if your position about the subject is well backed up by evidence.
