The support for evolution is hard science and real and proved.

It is abundantly clear that natural selection is responsible for a substantial portion of the diversity of life on this planet. That in no way, however, implies that it is responsible for all of it. There were almost certainly other factors at work that we don't know about and may never understand. Whether those factors include divine intervention, or an extraterrestrial "ark", or something else entirely, is pure speculation.

If not, I'd be inclined to wonder why so many species use sexual reproduction.

Fine. Show your evidence. Otherwise, this is just philosophical armwaving, not science.

And this pure speculation is what you want taught in science class???
