Most atheists value knowledge over belief - the real over the imagined - the natural over the supernatural. ~ OLDSALT
Knowledge over theory as well, I presume.
Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp, Or what's a heaven for? ~ Robert Browning

I shall reply in this manner:

We know stuff about gravity. That knowledge is gained from observing reality. We can't see gravity, but we can measure the force it exerts. We can feel gravity. We have mathematical equations that accurately model and predict gravity and the behavior of objects in gravity. We call this the Theory of Gravity. You see, a scientific theory is not a guess as apparently some believe. Scientific theories are knowledge.
