That's one of many meanings. Do you believe that Intelligent Design is a
theory? It seems to work in your definition.

I tend to subscribe to the theory of evolution. ID is a belief based upon
faith, not science.

But Max, you said that the definition of theory is "Theory: a proposed
explanation whose status
is still conjectural, in contrast to well-established propositions that are
regarded as reporting matters
of actual fact." Seems to me that ID falls into that category.

You brought up the concept of ID, not I. It frankly is of no interest to
me.

In any case, it seems to work as a theory by your definition.
