Not sure you understand what "scientific theory" actually implies. "A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that is acquired through the scientific method and repeatedly tested and confirmed through observation and experimentation."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_theory

A theory is a proven truth until disproved ;)
