Have these "educators" checked with scientist lately. Because of amazing advances in physics and biology, its a given that only a very intelligent force could have created the universe and cell life. Evolution is laughed at as being insanely absurd. Of course, maybe they are not really "educators", more like "indoctrinators".

What about all the other creation stories? I kind of like the Hindu ones with gods popping out of belly buttons and stuff.

Georgia's second-largest school district adopted a policy last night that requires teachers to give a "balanced education" about the origin of life, giving equal weight to evolution and biblical interpretations.This ought to last for about a nanosecond in court.

While I've got no problem qualifying evolution as a theory, creationism has absolutely no place in the classroom. It's not a scientific theory, its worth as an option can't be measured in any way, and it can't be argued in any but religious terms. More to the point, which creation myth gets the pick - Christianity? Why? Is it any more valid a possibility than the creation myths of any other religion? Stephen King opines in It that the world was created via the waste by-product of an ageless tortoise. Do we have to teach children the possibility of King's creation myth?
