Creationism is based upon faith. Some people believe that it is the way the world was created as part of their religious beliefs.
Evolution is based upon scientific observation. Almost all geologists and biologists believe that is the most likely explanation for the bio-diversity on the earth.
Evolution is a fundamental theory in biology. Schools should teach theories like evolution based upon observable scientific facts. Creationism does not have observable facts and most scientific observation appears to contradict the timeline of creationism. Including creationism in a biology class would incorrectly imply that creationism has a scientific basis.

The first thing it would do is destroy science, at least in this country. Instead of using science to understand our world, we'd be using religious opinions.
The second thing it would do is destroy Chrisitianity. Instead of being a religion that relies on the faith of its followers, it would become a religion that relies on indoctrinating its followers.

Creation and Evolution cover the same scenario, but is looked upon by different points of view. If both sides studied the "gap theory" their could be healthy dialogue instead of name calling and harsh critism. (I never could spell critisism lol)
