From "Questions and Answers on Evolution," excerpts from the Frequently Asked Questions section of ''Evolution and Creationism: A Guide for Museum Docents,'' prepared for training docents and staff members at the Museum of the Earth in Ithaca, N.Y.:

IS EVOLUTION `JUST A THEORY'? A ''theory'' in science is a structure of related ideas that explains one or more natural phenomena and is supported by observations from the natural world; it is not something less than a ''fact.'' Theories actually occupy the highest, not the lowest, rank among scientific ideas.
