I wrote these two comments at EDITORIAL: Legislature wants Scopes trial rerun. I wrote a 3rd comment but it was censored. American assholes (AKA Christians) love censorship.

"even though it is a theory"
Typical know-nothing Christian imbecile doesn't know what a scientific theory is.
THEORY: In science, a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that can incorporate facts, laws, inferences, and tested hypotheses. The contention that evolution should be taught as a "theory, not as a fact" confuses the common use of these words with the scientific use. In science, theories do not turn into facts through the accumulation of evidence. Rather, theories are the end points of science. They are understandings that develop from extensive observation, experimentation, and creative reflection. They incorporate a large body of scientific facts, laws, tested hypotheses, and logical inferences. In this sense, evolution is one of the strongest and most useful scientific theories we have.

"Evolution is only a theory"
Michelle Allmon Rogers, see the definition of scientific theory in my other comment.
The problem with you Christians is you're all uneducated morons. Therefore you have no right to make decisions about science curriculums. You christian imbeciles should go read your worthless idiotic bible and let scientists and science teachers make the decisions about science education.
Competent biology teachers make evolution part of every lesson because evolution is the foundation of biology. Evolution is also the strongest fact of science. Evolution is also the most interesting fact of science. Christians want to destroy science education because science makes their dead Jeebus cry. Christians want to dumb down the teaching of the most interesting basic fact of science (evolution). If they get their way students will learn how to hate science. If evolution is properly taught (as the fact it is and as part of every single biology lesson) then students will learn how to love science.
Attacking America's science education is equal to or worse than what the Muslims did to us on 9/11/2001. Any Christian who attacks the teaching of evolution belongs in prison for treason.
The religious alternative, magical creationism, is a childish fantasy for gullible morons who are too cowardly to accept reality, too lazy to study science, and too stupid to understand science. Christians should shut up about what they know nothing about, and they know nothing about science.

I wrote some comments (name = Human Ape) at http://dailymaverick.co.za/article/2012-03-29-atheisms-new-dogmatism.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
