What I believe Pako is saying is that teaching evolution as theory or fact without anything else leads children to believe that it IS fact. Generally speaking, children beleive adults when it comes to things they don't totally understand. If you only show them one way to do a certain thing, they will usually believe it is THE way to do said thing.
What I'm talking about is balance. You can talk about the scientific proof of parts of evolution until you're blue in the face(and so could I because I've learned a lot in this thread) but the fact of the matter is that it isn't proven from A to Z and shouldn't be presented as such. I grew up in the public schools and is WAS presented as how it happened, not how it could have happened.
