evolution is a theory and it won't be a LAW

Once again to be pedantic:

Evolution just means living things changed over time. That has been proved within all definitions of proof.
That is pretty much the definition of a fact.

There are theories which explain why things have changed. That's what a theory is, an explanation of a fact. A LAW is something passed by a legislature. A while ago, maybe 500 years ago there were some theories about basic facts that astounded the educated community. They explained the facts so well, and so mathematically precisely that they must have been a LAW passed by God. That's because most of them thought there was a god which setup laws the way a legislature does. Now we know better.
