I wish that I could answer all those, but I frankly don't have a clue about any of them, including what the administration thinks about them.

On the other hand, there is lots of data about how different species have evolved and more comes on stream daily. If I were to tell my grandsons - one a senior and one a junior in high school- both have been taking AP science since they started - that I doubted the notion of evolution, they'd roast me alive.
When I was in high school, there was a lively debate on the subject, but except for some diehard school districts, most people accept it now.
Hence, my reply to Tamar.
If someone doubts the notion of evolution, I wonder about that person's judgment.
Anyone who does not go overboard- deserves to.
