Can you give me an example of a country that teaches creationism as science, and can objectively be shown to be "ahead of us" in science education?
I cant. But I understand that the literal interpretation of the Genesis account of creationism is taught in schools in the Islamic world.

There may be more examples that I'm not aware of, but I do know that before I take up the idea that teaching evolution instead of creation in science class is making us fall behind the rest of the world in science education, I want to see some evidence to back it up.
