The portion of Evolutionary Theory which states living things came into existence from a big bang, then formed complex cells, and then turned into species that turn into new species is a theory by proxy, because it hasn't been directly demonstrated or observed. It's supported by limited understanding of pre-existing conditions on the earth, limited historical physical evidence (such as fossil records), and by observing limited and often unpredictable examples of micro evolution in viruses, bacteria, and germs. The theory of evolution is an aggregate of all of this. To say this is the equivalent to a Law such as the Law of Gravity is an overstatement. Gravity is a singular observable physical fact that doesn't rely on history or the complex nature and development of living things.
