How about this?
The evolution of more complex life forms from simpler forms through natural selection neither imples nor denies the existence of God.
Are we all happy now?
I can agree on that. There are those who’ve said that belief that God was creator also means believing “young Earth”, man and dinosaurs co-existing, etc. etc. which it does not.
I won’t even defend ID as science. I haven’t looked into it. But belief in God as Creator is a belief in “creationism”.
Some would have it that we must deny any role from a creator. I would not venture to make any determination in a school setting as to the nature of that creator but to insist on denial of a creator is to preach atheism, itself a faith based belief system (religion).
If God was sprang forth from the Big Bang purely by accident (or evolved from space dust). What is to rule out the existence of “other” gods by similar origins?
But as the original poster said, all of this is neither here nor there is PBS misrepresented the case in their “report”.
