Ag! No! No theory has ever been proven in the history of science, because science doesn't prove, it only disproves. "Prove," in a scientific context, translates roughly to "I don't understand how science works." Can the BBT, evolution, etc., be disproven? Sure. Plenty of ways. Can they be proven? No.
