Just the sociological value of present ALL the seven views plus Evolution seems to be sensible behavior.
Seven plus One eh? Clever.

Re: Is this what you propose to teach?
our own personal preferemce for the Six Kingdom System is a subject choice which might even be appropriate to your vocation related to the taxonomy of Biology.
Let's assume just for argument that the preference for more than two kingdoms is a choice. Why do bacteria and yeast belong in the plant kingdom? That choice simply cannot be justified. Where did anaerobic organisms belong?

Re: Is this what you propose to teach?
The Chart below illustrates how the bacteria that first appeared on earth fits into the Plant Kingdom. Its a science thingee some just don't understand:
What kind of stupid game are you playing? Your chart does not show any bacteria. I'm a fool for paying this bunk any attention. That folly ends now.

Re: In the beginning of time is temporal indeed.
While you started a few years ago with the erroneous assumption that Genesis was so vague
Actually none of us are calling Genesis vague. Most of the people you are arguing with have a specific meaning of the literal words of Genesis in mind. For example, I understand that Genesis describes a global flood of water actually lifting the keel of Noah's ark above the highest mountain.
You are the one trying to make the Bible literal and inerrant by making it vague. According to you, no one can actually determine what the Bible says until a scientist uncovers evidence.
If your method were of interpretation were correct, I would expect you to drop this Nostradamus style faux-prophesying and to instead read the Bible and announce some scientific knowledge in advance of science discovering it (or at least in advance of you knowing about it).

Re: In the beginning of time is temporal indeed.
But you also are arguing that this "flood" is impossible and hence means that if the Bible writers were either dead wrond,... or that they meant that as a Simile.
Stop making up stuff and assigning it to me.
I haven't argued any such thing. Your two proposals are not the only options. I can easily think of several others. My personal belief, which I have not made any attempt to argue for, is that the flood story is meant to describe man's relation to God, and that the story need not be true to accomplish that goal.
You are choosing to make the bible wrong.
No I'm not.
