Should evolution be taught in schools?

Pulling numbers out of a hat is still non-random, unless the hat contains a infinite number of "slips".

Please don't expound as I have read the stories. The interpretation of the bible is unnecessary in a model that presumes all the physics of evolution are, to paraphase Einstein, revealing the mind of god at work. This doesn't then attach itself to any particular religion except renaming nature "god". It is still Frankenstein's monster to try and accept and reject enough of each, science and religion, to make the two as one. Many parts of each have nothing to do with the other. The points at which they overlap or conflict are meaningless within the application of each. Most Christians are comfortable with compartmentalising the two and making sense of their world in the light of each as they feel appropriate.
