You seem to have missed the point.

Your basic point, as I understood it, seemed to be that the content of science classes should not be determined by what "most people" seem to think is right.

My point is that in areas where there is controversy (and the Evo debate has controversy, in case you missed it) then teaching both sides would seem to be an appropriate way to present the material.

My further point is that the side that doesn't want both sides presented (that's the Evo side) would seem to be fearful that their side will be unable to mount a case which is more compelling that their competition (that's the anti-Evo side).

I think the Evolutionists want their beliefs taken on faith. I do think Evolution has become a religion.

My point is that scientists determine what is in science classes.

That way students learn what current scientific thinking is in the field.

This is done in every branch of science, even geology which has much in it that could disturb those who want envery branch of science to match their personal understanding of the Bible.
