So the scientists' guessing about what actually happened is more viable than the creationist guessing that God did it?
Sorry, I still think both sides need to be presented, just not necessarily in the same class.
Knowledge can only grow when concepts are freely exchanged and discussed.
Allowing only ONE point of view is abhorrent to a People whose entire country is built around the ideals of Freedom.
Well, you can present as many sides as you want in the political arena but as far as science is concerned there is only one viable point of view and it ain't ID/Creationism.
There is plenty of proof that meets scientific rigor of TTOE. Physical, empirical, observable proof. Or are the Red Shift, string theory, alterations to the Theory of Gravity which, surprise, is NOT what you see as a layperson, all scientists "guessing?"

I have already said that religion can and should be taught in public school as theology or philosophy.

Agreed, so long as the topic at hand is subject to "viewpoints." Viewpoints about string theory may be subject to debate, but that debate is amongst scientists with the proper background and knowledge. Pastry Chefs (for example) with no scientific knowledge are not qualified to present a "viewpoint" on string theory even if they hold an opinion on it.
Evolution belongs with science, Creation with theology.
I think you are more in agreement than not with me.
