the hypocrisy of "science"

At the beginning of my Physics class, we talked about the scientific method and the meaning of a theory. Here's the definition of a theory, more or less, judging from my notes:
"A theory is a logically consistent and falsifiable framework used to predict or explain a naturally occurring phenomenon."

Except when it comes to the theory of evolution, we can throw out that whole "falsifiable" bit.
