When a hypothesis is supported by an experiment do we say that we have proven the experiment and it can become a theory?
That's the first step.
Why don't scientists say they have proven their hypothesis true?
Unlike religion, science need objective and strong evidence before giving credit to a theory as explanation of something. And anything that has been proven "true" can always be proven wrong by any other new theory which fits better or simoly be proven wrong.
How is the meaning of the theory in science different from the everyday use of the term?
Basically a theory refers to something that has been tested and tested over and over again and looking at the results you can infer that the subject of the theory exists even though you can not directly observe it
Why don't scientists say they have proven their hypothesis?
Scientists believe that experiments can test hypotheses and answer the specific scientific question at hand and can either support or deny the justification of a theory. Either way, the theory will always have outliers and cases that reduce its legitimacy. While a theory can become very strong in its support, scientists say that nothing can ever be 100% "proven"
How is a prediction used in scientific method?
In scientific method, hypothesis is the scientific prediction the scientist does. He/she gives an educated guess as to what's going to happen during the experiment then would say if its been proven or not at the conclusion.
Is it correct to say gravity is only a theory?
No. It's never correct to say that anything is "only" a theory or "just" a theory or"merely" a theory or "nothing but" a theory or an "unproven" theory.A theory can never be proven, but it can be dis-proven in two seconds. If a theoryhas been around for three hundred years and it hasn't been dis-proven yet, thenthat's a pretty good indication that you can trust the statement it makes.

How was the big boom created?
The Big Bang theory is that all the substance in space collected together and had a catastophic explosion in space and through that all the galaxies and planets and etc. formed in space. Alot of scientist and athiest believe in this theory to explain how everything came to be. But i still say God had a part with it. First of all, this theory can be proven wrong by me in one simple step...the fact that an explosion needs air to explode proves this theory false because there is no air in space... so congradulation scientist, you have just been proven wrong by a freshman in high-school!
How E equals mc2 was proven wrong?

When is your ghost and soul created?
It depends on who you ask, Since it isn't proven that humans have soul. A religious person may say when your born, but a scientist may say never. Personally i think your soul is created when you are born.
