I am neither a scientist nor an American but this is my take fwiw:
Evolutionary theory is science. Regardless of whether you think it is good or
bad science it remains science. Creationism is a world view that explains the
universe (creation) but is not science. Therefore science class shoulod teach
science and religious education and/or social studies should teach religious
views.
