What about the myths of physics and electronics, equally unproveable,
that allow us to communicate over USENET?

Evolution is not 100% absolutely proven (nothing is), but it was
arrived at by observing natural phenomena, formulating a theory,
and repeatedly testing that theory using objective scientific
experimental techniques. That is why it should be taught in biology
class and why creationism should not. Creationism has never addressed
scientific principles and never will, unless it wants to end up
on a dusty bookshelf next to alchemy and flat world theories.
