Sweetie, I hate to break it to you, but evolution has been taught exclusively in schools for half a century. If there is a problem with U.S. students competing against the rest of the world, you can't blame creationists.

It would be silly to say it is the only problem with our schools, but to the extent creationists are fighting the teaching of science in the schools and denigrating the scientific method just because it reaches inconvenient answers, I can blame part of the decline of eduction on creationists.

And I can blame part of it on the teaching of evolution since it has been taught exclusively for the last half century.
