Why can't it be dropped and replaced with nothing? The origins of the Earth and the inhabitants of earth have never been proven. Making reference to the musings of scientitsts is well and good as long as their ideas are presented as products of the imaginations of scientists. Since the Darwinists don't want to agree even to that much, the whole bizarre idea should be dropped from public school curricula rather than have it taught as valid theory, which it clearly is not.
What would be your problem with dropping it and replacing it with nothing?
You have a real problem you are going to have to overcome.
What science is, what is included in science, what is excluded from science and what is taught in science classes is defined by scientists. They earn the label "scientist" by doing work that meets the approval of other scientists. In many ways, it is a closed community.
Lawyers, legislators, charlatans, religious fundamentalists and idiots have often tried to break into the community and establish different operating rules but such attempts always will fail. There just is no room in science for nonsense.
Today, the closed community of scientists agrees that evolution is good science. This is just the way it is.
Still haven't read the first chapter yet? Variation, overproduction, and heritability -- What do you do with these facts of life? When you suggest replacing evolution with nothing you must mean that all information about life on this planet would have to be kept from the kids lest one of their number independently rediscovers Darwin's explanation for the geological distribution of fossil species, the geographical distribution of related living species, and the effects of artificial selection on domestic species.
