That is quite an elaborate dissertation. However, I feel that the insertion of a divine or supernatural entity into natural affairs just plain goes beyond what should be taught in a science class.
'Of course scientists can't document every step of the historical process of evolution. That wouldn't be science anyway, it would be mere data collection.'
Doing a proper job of collecting data is part of the scientific method. Reducing, analyzing and interpreting it properly is the other part of the scientific method. When scientists have insufficient data to fill in the gaps left, they must then theorize (punny word in this case considering its root) what could fill in the gaps. However, they cannot insert non-scientific (i.e., non-natural) mechanisms or causal explanations to do this. Don't shoot the messenger trying to work within the bounds of her/his field of expertise, go instead after the left-leaning liberal loonies (L^4) trying to use it for their own selfish/immoral/power-hungry intentions.
