Why can't the Creationist be happy with teaching their theories in Philosophy and Religion classes?

Let me share my problem with Homeschooling with a Christian curriculm.
It teaches creationism. I don't believe in it as an absolute.
It touches on Intelligent Design, I'm closer to that.
It does not however give any information on Darwinism.

I am actually getting books to teach this.

The problem is that in the public schools, ONLY Darwinism is taught. If they handled the others along with Darwinism, I would have no problem at all.

Every one of the above are theories. Nothing more. None of them are absolute and should be treated as such.

I'm not proposing teaching anything Biblical in public education (i.e. oil and water). The better question is:

Why can't the evolutionist see/admit the problems in Darwin and evolutionary theory enough to actually debate them - instead of this whack-a-mole diatribe we see so often at FR?

Atta boy, the standard cliche reply anyone who questions Darwin is a Religious Nut. Some of us just don't have the Faith to believe in Evolution. But we respect your Faith to believe w/o questioning.

Because first and foremost for Christians is truth. And evolution is not truth. Tell me about irreducible complexity at the cellular level. Tell me about the thousands of missing "missing links" representing the incremental changes between one specie and another. The truth about a Creator is plain. *That* much doesn't require a degree in science....

[fabian]

because there is much scientific evidence for creationism and ID and numerous scientists that support them. The dna code which is more complex than a computer code is just one of the amazing things that points to a designer.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Why can't Darwinists admit that evolution have non-neutral consequences that are PROFOUND religious, political, and cultural?

When government K-12 schools teach evolution/intelligent design/creationism, government WILL establish, uphold, promote the religious beliefs of some while actively undermining the religious traditions of others. I find this troublesome constitutionally on both the state and federal levels.

Oh,,,and please remember that evol/ID/Creationism is mere one conflict out of thousands that are no-compromise issue. The government no matter what action it takes will favor the religious beliefs of some while trashing those of others. Neither side can concede any ground. If the do they are giving away little pieces of their souls.

There is only one solution to this: Begin the process of privatizing universal K-12 education.

[Creationist]

That would be true with your evolutionary theory also. There is no physical proof of macro evolution.
Only adaptation and variation.

Evolution has been disproved at every front and is defended like a religion. It is a religion it takes faith to believe in evolution. Faith to believe that you came from a slim puddle billions of years ago. Faith to believe that nothing created everything before us, even the laws that govern the universe. Faith to believe that everything is known by the people who tell you it is so.

If it contradicts the Bible it is a lie.

And science is not a lie just evolution, and the presupposition that the earth is billions of years old and that the Flood of Noah's day never happened.
