Well Get My Smelling Salts!
*gasp* Scientists are human! Thus, "they are completely thoughtless and inconsistent" in their use of such words as "theory," "hypothesis," "model," etc. Even so, at some point, some things, such as evolution or gravitation or whatever, are just true, even if no one can ever be 100% certain of them. It doesn't mean that science is wrong, just that many people have an unreasonable need for a kind of certainty that just doesn't exist. Unfortunately, when science doesn't satisfactorily sate that need, they go kinda nuts and start talking about "Intelligent Design" and crap.
