You're welcome.
Lay people (in this context I'm referring to non-scientists) very often have a misunderstanding of the word "theory" because it's used very differently in the scientific community than it is by the general population. Nobody should ever dismiss evolution as being without merit because it's "just a theory" or elevate creationism to that same status.
