How about the idea that there had to be a catalyst for the change to occur. Even if you believe in evolution, something had to have made it happen, same with the big bang theory (which is not the T of E)

So the teachers should teach that there had to be Someone who caused everything to happen.

The poll said, "evidence". And I feel the same way.

Teachers shouldn't teach "there had to be". That is bad teaching, bad science.

If there is specific evidence, then *that* should be taught.

No, that's not necesarily a true statement.

What if the universe (in one form or another) has always existed?

Our monkey brains have a tough time grasping "infinity," but it's a possibility.

Science is the observation of fact. Did you observe Someone who caused everything to happen.

Or did you suppose it.
