A scientific claim is, basically, a prediction of an experiment's outcome.


What is the relationship between theory and hypothesis?

In any branch of science, "theory" and "hypothesis" are generally distinguished as post-experimental and pre-experimental. A theory is formulated after (post) experimentation and other study; it makes a claim about what is (or seems to be) actual. An "hypothesis" is formulated before (pre) experimentation and other study; it projects a claim or makes a suggestion about what might turn out to be actual.


Who is the creator of the theory of everything?

No theory of everything currently exists. There are candidates but they are far from complete and much work is required before they may claim to be a theory of everything. I am not sure who (or even if it was a single person) coined the term 'theory of everything'.

Can Muslims accept evolution as science or must they see it as evil?

We accept evolutionary science on the evidence presented. No religious ideology can trump the evidence for the fact of evolution and the theory of evolution by natural selection, which explains much of the fact of evolution. I find it passing strange that someone could see a scientific theory as evil since the theory makes no claim on the supernatural. It is up to Muslims what they will accept, but the theory is the bedrock of biology and you cannot do much biology without the theory's overarching explanatory power.


Why do scientists say that magic is science that we don't understand yet?

Does the current pope believe in evolution?

I am uncertain of what the current pope specifically "believes" regarding the current Theory of Evolution, but what I can say is that the Theory of Evolution poses no challenge to the Catholic Faith. I can say that the current pope, whatever he personally believes regarding the Theory of Evolution would say that the current theory of evolution poses no challenge to the Catholic Faith. Because the Theory of Evolution is a Scientific Claim, and not a theological claim, the Church cannot make a judgment as to the truth or falsity of the Theory. Matters pertaining to Science are outside the purview of the judgment of the Church, because the Church was not established to discover Scientific Truth.
