Thing is, teaching creationism really isn't "science" whereas evolution is. Â*So unless you find another subject it would fit in, it doesn't make sense to teach both. Â*

But, if you start teaching creationism, even as another subject and in conjunction with evolution (and I'm assuming they would state periodically in some way that the kids can believe what they want, it's just being taught to give them both sides), you'll offend the other half of the population. Â*So it really doesn't matter what they do, someone will alawyas be offended.

My solution? If you want your kid to learn creationism, teach it yourself or send them to Catholic school (this is me assuming that they teach that there lol).
