Law vs Theory

A scientific law is not "better" or "more accurate" than a scientific theoryA law explains what will happen under certain circumstances, while a theory explains how it happens.
Hypothesis: rovisional idea for what might be true, complete with at least on testable prediction. Without any testable predicitons, the idea can never rise to the level of hypothesis.
Belief: 
if something a person holds to be true. It is often used by religious persons to describe what they consider above investigation or test.
