Teach it in your church, and even in privately funded schools, but keep it out of publicly funded schools. If you teach it in your private schools, don't be surprised when your students aren't able to excel in science when they go to universities.

Whose version? When christians want creationism taught in public schools what they are really saying is that they want their own versions of it taught. What they fail to understand is that if one version is allowed then all versions must be taught. Personally I think the public schools are not the place for teaching a religious doctrine. That is for churches and parents.

No.
1) It's religion, and we don't teach religions in school.
2) It's not science, and we DO teach science in school.

It's logical that if there is an argument for evolution there should also be an argument for creationism too. It amazes me how people talk about having an "open mind", even telling Christians that they should be "open minded", but they themselves are very close minded to the Gospel. The Bible also warns about science falsely so called.

I'm religious, but I think that religion should stay out of school unless it's a religion class.
Religion should come from the parents, but not in a forceful manner.

If it is a class on superstitions and mythology, sure go right ahead. You can cover creationism right after studying the Tooth Fairy.

Possibly to older children in the context of a comparitive religion class, never in the context of a science or biology class.

No--certainly not in science lessons--because it's simply not science.
