Yes. Evolution should be taught to children. We're going to do them a huge disservice "uneducating" them, and filling their heads with fairy tales instead of facts. This country is already in danger from it's children not being educated up to the standards the rest of the world has. Let's not make it any worse with this nonsense. I'm a Christian, and as far as I'm concerned, God gave us brains, and the ability to use science, so let's not spit in His face by throwing away those gifts. I think He's up there right now shaking his head in sadness and disbelief at the ignorance.

I think since evolution and creationism are both theories with no one side being able to sway the other, they should both be taught as possibilities. Along with creative evolution, at about the middle school age.

It shouldn't be a required class.If the study of is needed for your major that you are studying fine.
College should be the only domain for teaching the theory of evolution.It is of no help to anyone in lower grades.

I believe in teaching our children the truth, and that is that God created everything. Nothing was left to chance. And, one kink of animal does not procreate another kind.
The only truth about evolution is that it is a theory that has, and continues to, deceived many people.
