If they want to teach evolution as a possible origin of life, they should do it in a class titled "Theology" or "Possible Origins of Humanity" or perhaps "Religions of the World 101". I just don't want to see the minds of the young ruined with propaganda. If we leave what we don't know yet blank, SOMEONE will get curious, and we will inspire the true spirit of science in our youth. By making too many assumptions for them, we limit them.

All I have to say is that as a chemist who works on cellular evolution this is completely and utterly wrong.
We have no mechanisms whatsoever for the creation of cells from basic ingredients or how intercellular systems form. We have certain reasonable mechanisms for lots of little things but no large scale mechanisms have been postulated or observed.
Unless you mean microevolution, as in evolution of already developed cells into other cells which is fair enough I assume ( I don't know, I focus on prebiotic chemistry).
