So what if they did? Their opinion doesn't make the teaching of evolution a priori atheist.

No their opinion is not what makes the teaching of evolution atheistic, but it confirms that evolution as being taught is atheistic. There are two points that need to be make:

Firstly, the denial of design in nature is atheistic in that it denies a designer. Mind you, those in the ID Movement never go beyond this and teach religion by speculating who is the designer. However, atheistic evolutionists do in stating their is no design or designer.

Secondly, if one believes God guides the evolution process, then they would believe in THEISTIC SELECTION, NOT NATURAL SELECTION. You can be cute and say nature is all science is concerned about, but then why would they not admit they simply do not know who are what guides the natural selection? See my post #6 as to why their views are atheistic.
