Contrary to a group of people who mistakenly call a "theory" nothng more than "an unproven idea" -- and do so in order to confuse the public in order to advance their political agenda -- a "theory" in scientific language means an over-arching idea that successfully explains a great deal of experimental data. The CORRECT scientific term for an unproven idea is "hypothesis."
Thus, Newton's THEORY of Universal Gravitation explains why planets move around our Sun in eliptical orbits. I would like to think nobody dismisses universal gravitation because it's called a "theory."

Why is Einsteins Relativity Theory and Quantum Physics at odds?
Einstein's Relativity Theory is at odds with quantum physics because Einstein's theory works at a macroscopic level, while quantum physics works at an atomic level, and things at the atomic level work differently from the macroscopic level.
Again I ask why was Einsteins Relativity Theory at odds with Quantum Physics?
Einstein's Relativity is at odds with quantum physics because they both work at different levels and under different conditions.
Is evolution a fact or theory?
Rather both. Evolution, the change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms, is an observed and observable fact. The theory of evolution by natural selection explains this fact with overwhelming evidences from many different disciplines.

Who went against Einstein's ideas?
Ernst Gehrcke was perhaps one of Mr. Einstein's most persistant adversaries, at least in Germany. However, many scientists of the day did not understand Mr. Einsteins theories, especially the Special Theory of Relativity which on initial presentation, it is rumored, was understood by almost no one present. Some may have come across as opponents in newspaper and magazine articles simply out of ignorance, but Mr. Gehrcke was overtly critical and was considered a leader among German scientists deriding Mr. Einsteins work.
