For extensively trained professional scientists a "THEORY" is a reliably confirmed "hypothesis" about inter- relationships between fully-confirmed "laws" which themselves describe regular patterns of events within rather limited realms of experimentation. Human theories are predicated on the belief that there are regular patterns in events which can be describe in reliable ways --- which potentially will help guide our processes of making decisions and relating to each other; and to our overall environment. Human theories relate to reliable patterns; not to individual isolated events and/or isolated individual cause-and-event-occurrences. Physicists use the word "THEORY" to summarize patterns which are called "laws"; describing some limited range of phenomena such as the: Pressures, Temperatures, Volumes, and Masses of any constrained amount of gas in a container of any volume, shape and temperature. Charles' and Boyle's gas laws describe some of the inter-relationships among such: Pressures, Temperatures, Volumes, and/or Masses. The Ideal-Gas-Law encompasses all of those relationships. In Statistical-Mechanics the THEORY of Ideal Gases explains how the facts summarized in the Ideal-Gas-Law come to be true through the random motions of different kinds of atoms and molecules which make up all gases. Further developments of that THEORY in Statistical-Mechanics indicates how gases condense to form liquids at freezing- point-temperatures, and how liquids become solids at even lower temperatures. A THEORY deals with a wide range of phenomena in an amazingly coherent way that is utterly reliable within given realms of relevance. Is it possible to develop a THEORY of human: behaviors, relationships, conflicts, intimacies, alienations, reconciliations, peace-making, sexuality, friendships, etc? Obviously such a THEORY would not deal exclusively with OBJECTIVE-REALITIES and OBJECTIVE-RELATIONSHIPS; because the scope suggested here is clearly as much in the realm of REFLEXIVE-RELATIONS as it is in the realm of OBJECTIVE-REALITIES and OBJECTIVE-RELATIONSHIPS.
