You originally equated theory (testable) to miracle (untestable, hysterical), so I don't understand what you're saying.
Then you read too much in to those words. My point is 100% verification and reproducibility. A theory would cease to be a theory if it has been 100% verified.
theory (ˈθɪərɪ
n , pl -ries
1. a system of rules, procedures, and assumptions used to produce a result
2. abstract knowledge or reasoning
3. a speculative or conjectural view or idea: I have a theory about that
4. an ideal or hypothetical situation (esp in the phrase in theory )
5. a set of hypotheses related by logical or mathematical arguments to explain and predict a wide variety of connected phenomena in general terms: the theory of relativity
6. a nontechnical name for hypothesis
[C16: from Late Latin theōria, from Greek: a sight, from theōrein to gaze upon]
By definition you shouldn't be confused.
