As a "theory" in the common sense of that word, fine with me (although it's a bit questionable whether unsupported assertions deserve much time in school). As a scientific theory, no. Unless you want to admit and/or endorse teachers lying to their students.
RightWingGirl said:what would happen if we gave everybody both sides and let them choose for themselves?
They might choose biblical creation where religion is concerned, but if they think scientifically, they'll accept evolution. Period.
(Alternative: Do things like they are done here in Germany. Teach whatever you want, even creationism, in religion class - we have those, optional and sponsored by the churches - and teach evolution and other proper science in science classes. Works well over here...)
