Derb, a monstrous oversight, of course.

Naturally you are right about evolution, and you are quite correct that intelligent design is, to use a kindly word, “bunk”, but I’m not so sure about your idea that evolution should be taught “like algebra”. It’s quite obvious that students in this country really need to understand what evolution is, and who, after all (apart from a few bespectacled exceptions) leaves school understanding algebra?
