Either Genesis is right or evolution is right.

What's next? Either Newton's Optics are right or "the light of the eye" theory is right? Either the Bible is right or Gray's Anatomy is right?

The problem is with evolution being used to infer religion. It's no help to use religion to derive science.

Teach basic epistemology, avoid category errors, and do make kids choose between religion and science. It's a false choice and eventually you will lose - needlessly.

“...do make kids choose between religion and science”?

Freudian slip? :o

“The problem is with evolution being used to infer religion”.

Hardly, the problem is the NEA secular humanists that demand young children understand that there’s “no place for God in the science class”, indeed in ANY class; nevermind the vast majority of children that attend school know better, freely accept Him in every other single facet of their lives, discuss Him openly in conversations, etc. etc. etc.

If anyone is forcing children to make a false choice, it’s secular humansit NEA/ACLU liberal lunatics like Micahel Newdow dependent on courts and liberal activist judges to enforce their liberal view of “science” and ideology.

Evolution as it is currently taught in public school is anti-theistic and intolerant of dissent. Just an extension of abiogenesis...without intelligence, without design, above all without God...all by sheer chance, and children are taught they’re little more than great apes.

THAT’S the problem.
