Creationism has no more place in a school setting than alchemy, astrology, phrenology, or flat earth theory. It’s not science. It’s not biology. It’s religious faith. If people of faith wish to teach creationism to their children, then home school them, or save it for religious services.
Would you have New Age mysticism taught in schools as well? Islam? Judaism? Buddhism? Taoism? Shintoism? All faiths people believe in, all with their own philosophies of how the universe works.
Or would you prefer they learn about the science that makes modern medicine possible, modern technology possible, modern engineering possible?
