"But Prof Reiss argues that there is an educational value in comparing creationist ideas with scientific theories like Darwin's theory of evolution because they demonstrate how science, unlike religious beliefs, can be tested." Pretty tough to "test" Evolution since Darwinists refuse to publish any peer-reviewed criteria for falsification.
Theories that have no falsification criteria should be left out of the class.

So you completely agree, then, that creationism and ID should never be taught in any science class.

Evolutionary theory (like all scientific theory) is testable through falsification. In the case of evolution, by a creature appearing so out of time and without reasonable explanation that the theory cant simply be modified, it must be invalid.

Darwinists refuse to publish any peer-reviewed criteria for falsification.Are you familiar with inferential statistics and the concept of the null hypothesis? The routine use of these in science publications refute your unwarranted claim.
