We've been over this. If the US National Academy of Science says TOE is the unifying principle in the study of biology, the US National Academy of Science is FOS.

Cells, DNA, heritably, anatomy, physiology, taxonomy, etc., are all core to biology. They are all 100% teachable with ZERO KNOWLEDGE OF EVOLUTION. Evolution OTOH cannot be taught without knowledge of many of those elements.

Thats because evolution is the answer to the next question. Sure you can learn about how all of these processes work, however the next step is how they came to be. Something that is that big a piece of the puzzle should be included in the curriculum.

This is like saying you can teach kids physics by just giving them the formulas. Sure you can do it, but it doesn't provide any sort of overarching understanding.

How many people who are much smarter than you are going to declare "FOS" before you start considering that maybe you're the one who needs to open a textbook?
