Evolution's had its fair share of bogus information.

Yes, it has.

Funny thing, though - all of the evolutionary mistakes and frauds have been exposed by scientists. Compare that with the creationist lies and frauds, which have been exposed by... scientists.

Scientists approach all new information with skepticism, even information that would seem to reinforce their original impressions. That's part of the scientific method.

It tells you who's really interested in truth and who's interested only in promoting an agenda.

Heck, showcase competing theories such as ID alongside it!

ID isn't a scientific theory. It fails the most simple test of the word. There are no competing scientific theories. Once there are, they should of course be taught alongside evolution. Until then, keep the bogus ID pseudo-science out of the classroom.

Once again, you imply that "theory" somehow means "not proven." That's just not the case, and insisting that it does is disingenuous at best.

I'm not implying anything about scientists. Just the theory of evolution in general.

I'm well aware of that. Scientific theories are used to explain observations and phenomena. However, my issue is the usage of the theory of evolution as a fact, when it is clearly not.
