Hypothesis: A supposition or proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further investigation. Theory: A scientifically acceptable general principle or body of principles offered to explain phenomena; a hypothesis assumed and accepted as truth
Why is there is no absolute certainty or scientific truth in a theory?
A "law" contains absolute certainty or scientific truth. A theory is very close to being a law, but without the absoluteness. That is what a theory is. If you have a pretty good idea of how something in science might work you might form a hypothesis (hye-POTH-uh-suss). With enough additional proofs and evidence, a hypothesis may someday turn into a theory.
The atomic theory every physical substance is made up of atoms is just a theory and so it is probably not true?
In science the word 'truth' is used very sparingly to reflect the experimental nature of science. Scientists do not rush to brand something 'true' even if it can describe and predict a natural phenomenon excellently, such as the case of the atomic theory. Before more evidence is gathered and a better theory proposed, the currently theory is accepted as the relative 'truth' in the field and respected as such. Scientific theories of the day are paradigms of human understanding of the world. Being 'just a theory' does not preclude it from becoming the eventual truth when human knowledge of the universe is complete.
How a scientific theory different from a conclusion?

What is theory of truth of behaviorism?
Behaviorism is a theory that asserts that truth or knowledge can be discovered through observing behavior and objectively measuring it. In behaviorism, truth is considered as the result of empirical observations and evidence of actions, where behavior is the focus of study rather than mental processes or internal states. This theory suggests that the foundation of truth lies in observable behavior and the consequences it produces.

Science is good but it is the truth?
In my opinion, science is the truth although there are no definite answer to theories in science. Though, to have a theory out of science, one must have sufficient evidence to support the theory.
