There are two main theories that describe the becoming of Earth over time. The first addresses the way the planet originated, together with the rest of the solar system. This theory is called the nebular hypothesis. The second addresses the way the planet has evolved since then, and is called plate tectonics.

Albert Einstein did not propose a theory of evolution. His primary contributions were in the fields of physics, particularly in the theory of relativity and the equation E=mc^2.

Responding to someone that states he or she does not believe in biological evolution because it is a theory?

The best way to respond to this is to explain that there is the fact of evolution and the theory of evolution. Evolution is defined as genetic change within a population. This is an easily observable fact both in nature and the laboratory. The theory of evolution is an explanation for the diversity of life on earth based on the observable facts that evolution does indeed occur. It is exactly the same situation with gravity. Gravity is a fact, an easily observed physical phenomenon. But there is also a Theory of Gravitation, an explanation for the phenomenon itself and how it works. That there is a theory for both evolution and gravity does not mean the facts of evolution and gravity are any less true.
