I am going to ignore the first part of your post, because it is based on a fantasy.
I would wager you have never even read the bible. What you say about it is very likely based upon what you have heard. That, my friend, is contempt before investigation.
I was born and raised a Roman Catholic, I have studied your bible backwards and forwards, I was an altar boy, which required testing in Bible and church doctrine, don't make statements that you are clueless about.
I am not going to cut and paste the next statement, because it is is too damn long.
Here is my response, science CANNOT PROVE OR DISPROVE the existence of god, therefore the existence of god CANNOT be used by science, when you are able to PROVE scientifically that god exists, then we will discuss god being part of science.
I will teach MY Kids what I want them to learn, not what the bankrupt and pathetic public schools want to teach them. I draw your attention to the performance of home schoolers (90% of them are Christian) who outperform public school students to the point of EMBARRASSMENT! That is one reaosn why people who think like you want to do away with home schooling - IT'S A THREAT TO DARWINISM!
I cut that as well, only because THIS is the only part I am going to respond to.
I have 3 kids, and guess what? THEY ARE ALL HOMESCHOOLED!!!I will NOT allow my children to be used as political pawns for christians, atheists, or anyone. THey will be taught how to think and how to question, that is another reason I am NOT christian, because I ask too many questions, and got way too many SILLY answers. Read history, then tell me why I am NOT a Christian. Hint: read about the historical beginnings of the bible and why it was created.
I am done with you, you are a typical fanatic without a clue.

The fact remains that 90% of homeschoolers are Christians and they are smarter than the atheists churned out by public schools. You have failed to answer many of my challenges to you, and until you do, there is no point in going forward. I am STILL waiting for your evidence as to how information is added to the genome or how the first protein molecule self-assembled. Indeed, your faith in evolution is a non-rational leap, as you have no evidence at all to hold up these essential pillars of darwinism.

I think arctic2000 wrote (I'm having difficulty keeping up and all this reading! But you and other creationists on this thread are AWESOME -- keep up the good work!): "Here is my response, science CANNOT PROVE OR DISPROVE the existence of god, therefore the existence of god CANNOT be used by science, when you are able to PROVE scientifically that god exists, then we will discuss god being part of science."
I think it's true that science cannot prove or disprove the existence of God, therefore science cannot be used to disprove His existence. When science is able to disprove that God exists, then we will discuss science (or evo to be precise] being part of our educational curricula, especially in terms of origins and meaning of life.

This is rhetoric, not facts. Science can indeed deal with God as it has dealt with the Big Bang and with abiogenesis. Science can see that natural causes cannot explain a certain thing such as life or the order of the cosmos. Indeed, the problem science has is not with God, but with the skeptics who deny that there is such a thing as order in the Universe. It is disorder, randomness, fortuitousness, lack of causation, that are the enemies of science.
