This is the interesting thing about the Theory of Evolution: it's *predictive* and that's why it's science. Put another way, it predicts and explains the future and much of the past. But not all of the past. This is similar to quantum mechanics. The theories within explain much of behavior we see every day; if they didn't the computer you're using wouldn't work - it's based on quantum mechanics theories! It's just that our theories of quantum mechanics don't explain everything - they don't tell us everything, but they do consistently predict some things. That tells us they're good solid proven repeatable science. And that's what the Theory of Evolution is: proven repeatable science. It just doesn't explain everything.
