This is the most fascinating thread, but you are taking the wrong approach. You can't argue against a belief system. It doesn't work.
What you can do is approach the matter from the phenom of unintentional consequences. The moment you open public schools up to religion, i.e. ID, then all religions get their shot at the kids, including Islam and Wiccans. The law makes no distinction between any of them.
So, what you're gonna get is sixth graders arguing religion with a teacher and among themselves. It should make for some interesting PTA meetings.

Interestingly, it's already opened up to secular humanism.
