Mississippi lawmakers are proposing a disclaimer on textbooks discussing evolution
"This textbook discusses evolution, a controversial theory some scientists present as a scientific explanation for the origin of living things. No one was present when life first appeared on earth. Therefore, any statement about life's origins should be considered a theory,"

Perhaps this reasonable approach and should be extended to other areas ?
This electrical substation outlet contains 17KV electricity - however this is only a theory and no one has ever seen an electron so you should use your faith to decide if whether to touch.
Gravity is only a theory and elements are refuted by general relativity so you should decide if you need a safety railing on this bridge.
