I think that teaching evolution to students as though it were fact without teaching opposing theories such as ID can create a doubt about God. That's what it did to me.I'd be curious to know what specifically caused your concern, and how other sciences like geology and physics can be taught without bringing up the age of the earth.

The whole theory that we came from apes and therefore were not created by God in his image created the doubt. I don't think the age of the earth would do that. Keep in mind that I came from a broken family and had a weak support system, but that is the case with alot of kids nowadays. All I am saying is that the education system should be honest and teach the whole range of theories with their strengths and weaknesses and evolution has huge wholes in it. I don't think they ever will because weakened doubtful kids make better liberals needy of the state.
