You should have asked more questions when you actually WERE in High School. However, your questions don't belong in the curriculum now.
"Voice for all enquiring minds" is a little ridiculous. There's no time, and the students need to know what science does know before they worry about what some zealots refuse to know.
Just like Sunday School ;)
How much time is there? Do you know what time is (ontologically) and where it came from? Do you detect anything intelligent, or regular, about time? Clocks shave a speicific DESIGN so we can INTELLIGENTY ascertain how much time has passed.
Frankly, I think it's past your bed time.
