If you want your kid to learn about creationism in school, then send them to private school.
I didn't say we should teach Creation. I would rather have nothing taught at all then either or.
Every single thing in science is a theory. Have you ever taken a science class? Every scientific "fact" can be proven wrong by finding one contradictory scientific (i.e. not religious) example. It is the government's job to teach science regardless of any sort of conflict it may have with certain people's religion. Once again, if you don't like it then go to private school.
No, not everything in science is a theory. A lot of things in science are factual, some things are theoretical though. The government is crossing the line when they start teaching unessexary things that go against anyone's religion.
Private school? Well yeah there is that option but the problem is in the middle / high schools now.
The Bible is literature. It doesn't function as a factual source.
Your opinion.
