This is just plain stupidity...why not teach both views and let students debate it? There is so much gained from allowing school students to decide for themselves or debate something out...rather than pushing something in their faces and saying 'this is right and that is wrong'. Regardless of whether a view-point is wrong or right...IMO, one of the most important parts of education is developing thought and encouraging the need to question and explore something freely.

The idea that science and creationism has equal weight is absurd. That's why debate would be out of the question. You can't factually argue creationism.

Religion does not belong in science classrooms at all.
