I know this isn't really politics, i'm just interested trying to get a lot of SW responses to this question outside of the spirituality/religion board which is bound to have an anti-evolution bias.

There are many theories of evolution. Punctuated equilibrium makes the most sense to me--the theory that organisms evolve very slowly or not at all for long periods, followed by a period of rapid evolution as a result of changes in their ecological niche. Evolution is well documented and should be taught in middle school science and beyond.
@Pikachu That's the part that isn't well known and isn't generally taught. Evolution is as well established as gravity, but the exact mechanisms and timing isn't well known.
