It has a very specific meaning that is not the same as what a TV detective means when he says 'I have a theory'. The oxymoron is not "scientific theory". The oxymoron is the BELIEF in scientific theory. The joke is that people like yourself will happily believe in a scientific theory based on something they read in one book, but refuse to believe in a religious theory based on something they read in another. The bigger joke is that people on either side of the argument tend to believe that science and religion are mutually exclusive, when in reality they just answer different questions to the same problem.
