I plan to teach my children about facts such as dinosaurs and evolution as opposed to imaginary reincarnations and an all knowing being who can not be seen or physically touched.

evolution is not a "fact."

I'm not arguing for or against it here, simply stating that it is a "theory."

No, it's a fact. Microevolution is proven, macroevolution is at a stage where it's about as close as scientists get to fact in this field.

In general the term "evolution" is used in place of macroevolution which you state is not a fact. There is a large amount of evidence that is interpreted to support it, but it is still a theory and not an absolute proven fact.

On Microevolution I agree that it is proven that a species can make changes to survive.

My point was simply that dinosaurs existed is a fact. That evolution occured is not a fact.
