Evolution is a theory, meaning that it is not a proven fact. Creationism is not a proven scientific fact either but has not been proven false, so since evolution has not been proven true and creationism has not been proven false, I think it should be taught in order for children to learn every aspect of the origin to life.
Sure, we could teach all forms of creationism. Hindu creationism with its 491 billion year old universe, the 500 different stories of creationism according to the 500 tribes in the New World. But why stop there, we could teach all 10,000 versions of creation from the 10,000 tribes that inhabited the earth as recently as New Testament times.
Wonder when they would have time to teach the 3 R's?
