To begin with, please peruse this forum so you come to an understanding of what a
scientific theory is, before attempting to converse intelligently here. By not understanding the nuances of the language that you use, you will appear to be ignorant.

Evolutionary theory does
not void any belief in God. The big bang theory, also, does
not void any belief in God. If you'd like to remove anything from the curriculum that might make a student question their religious beliefs, you may as well remove the entire science department, as well as the history departments. It is not my problem that scientific
fact contradicts what you teach your child. That is
your problem.
If you taught your child that the sun revolved around the earth, and this theme was central to your beliefs, would it be my duty to not teach the opposite to your child? I don't think so. I don't believe that it is my duty to tie a little bow around the construct that you have taught your child.
Also, I find it a disservice to say that evolution undermines your faith. If all it takes for you to question what you believe is something like evolution and the big bang, you have larger problems than what your child is taught in school. Don't blame science for you questioning your faith.
