If evolution cannot be reduced to a formula, then, how, pray tell, do Evos think that it should be taught to schoolchildren?

This is one of the most laughable statements I've heard on FR in a while. Apparently you believe that the only thing which can be taught to schoolchildren are formulas? How do you suggest the theory of heliocentrism be taught to schoolchildren? How do you suggest germ theory be taught to schoolchildren?

The answer, of course, is that it will be taught in the same way which any vast field of scientific knowledge and inquiry is taught to schoolchildren: By giving them a brief conceptual and factual overview of the current state-of-the-mainstream.

I'm constantly amazed at the singling-out of evolution, amongst scores of overwhelming accepted scientific theories, for bizarre objections.

Notice you didn't answer the question, but took a pot shot at me.

That old TimeLife tiny ugly ape to full stature human being poster is a bit ragged about the edges, but I suppose that's the pooftext you and other FR evos think suitable for schoolchildren on Evolution
