Re: Why would we want to?
A few obvious problems.
​
You are using the improper definition of theory. A theory is not merely an idea. It is a set of facts, experiments and hypothesis that have largely been proven true. Not everything in TOE has been proven entirely true likewise, not everything the theory of Gravity has been proven true.
​
Nothing came from an exploding rock. Where you got that idea, I don't know. A singularity holds no resemblance at all to a 'exploding rock.'
​
The list of hoaxes you proved merely prove that science and the science of evolution are self correcting. Meanwhile there are still creationists out there saying the Earth has to be young due to too little dust on the Moon despite NASA disproving that argument decades ago and creationists sites saying not to use that argument. Go look in the mirror.
​
Evolution does not invalidate God. It merely invalidates some interpretations of some origin stories. Evolution's validity in no way makes Vishnu, Thor, Isis or many other Gods suddenly disappear.
​
Finally your argument is totally flawed due to its failure to recognize the possibility of multiple Gods including Gods that may punish you for believing in false Gods.
​
Your argument needs a repair job like the Titanic needed a design overhaul.

Re: Why would we want to?
You do realize that Christanity is made up of a variety of sects, one of which is Catholicism yes? So if one refers to Christanity, they are also referring at least implicitly to Catholicism.
