S: : If I didn't have the time to explain the theory of relativity to you, would that disqualify it?

D: It wouldn't prove or disprove it. But at some point if you wish to maintain a theory you must defend it--with something more than unsupported claims.

Qx: Really? It can be called "just a theory" by some but it still gets attacked. I think it stands well on it's own without my having to rush to it's defense.
