I don't think he'd know what evolution is. We discuss the "dinosaur story" which is me explaining the big bang and extinction of the dinosaur but I don't use the word evolution in the story. I don't feel the need to push the word evolution..yet :) We just bought Dan Barker’s book “Just Pretend” but have not introduced it to our almost 6 year old.

Any answer would sound coached. *The public schools are so incredibly bad where I live (Akron, OH), they're simply not an option. Catholic school is the lesser of two evils.
