Mr. E started class saying by saying "In this class, I intend to completely dismiss and disprove many religious myths".

I think this is going a little too far. Your opinions?

It is entirely appropriate to teach science in a science course. That of course includes evolution.

However, the moment the teacher mentions "religious myths" of any sort, he has strayed into philosophy or perhaps theology. I doubt that either subject is appropriate for a general high school science course.

There was a good article about a week ago titled:

Exposed: The scientific impossibility of evolution
‘Nothing Created Everything’ a surefire way to debunk atheism

One of the quotes I found funny and so true;

“Time performs miracles. Time is the creator,” he said.

“You can say to them, ‘OK, there's nothing in your garage, could you believe in 10,000 years a Mercedes would evolve out of nothing? You'd say, No, that's ridiculous.’ ‘So, what about 100,000 years?’ ‘No, that's stupid.’ But if you start talking billions of years, they'll suddenly go glaze-eyed and, ‘Yeah, I could believe that, a Mercedes could evolve out of nothing over billions of year.’ So time is their miracle worker.”
