If it's such a lie, then how DO they get away with teaching it in science classes around the world? Are the experts in science and education working together in a big conspiracy to keep evolution in schools? For what reason? Would education administrators insist that something unfounded be taught in science class? Or is it that, perhaps, the experts DO know more about science and what should be taught in schools than you do? If so many people with expertise in the area keep agreeing that it is an important part of the curriculum, maybe that should be a sign that it's not as unfounded as you think.
IF after pondering the above you still believe evolution shouldn't be taught, please tell me how it still makes it into the science curriculum every year.

Fireball, I have to give you some credit, that isn't a bad answer.

They will claim a conspiracy theory. It's the Theory of Evilution. They take it as an attack on their god of gaps, just like they did with every other discovery in science. They threatened to kill Galileo, they denied the world being round, and they even attacked the germ theory! Seriously, they said that "germs" were just another lie from scientists.
Ask this to the conspiracy theorists, "Can't people make more money when evidence isn't even needed?" They seem to think evolution is money driven, but they give money to a church that does nothing. Scientists would make a lot more money if they just "proved" goddidit. Hell, I'd even be able to make money since it takes no evidence or rational thought to have that opinion.
You won't find a rational reason to explain an irrational position.

First off it happened with the seperation of Church and State. The Government wants to have complete controll of our children and their way of thinking. Now then if these people are so smart and their technoligy so advanced why is it at an archeolgy dig in Arizona they claimed a 10 year old goat bone to be several thousand years old and that belonging to a dinosaur. The dig was on that of a rancher whom burried a goat right where they had been digging it was the highlight of the town as we laughed them all out. I was 17 at the time and well it is one thing I will never forget. They only think they know everything just as parents like to think they know their children very well.

Dig into how evolution came about into the school system. Schools started out in USA as bible classes then grew into school houses. School books even from the early 1900's talked about God and creation.
Then along came Rockefeller. He wanted evolution in the schools and to cancel out creation, for he is one of the illuminati, a satan worshiper and part of this NWO (new world order) that we are seeing being formed today.
Research it, Rockefeller owns a tiny, 1000 sq ft room in a building in California that is the head of evolution for schools. That one tiny room controls it all and keeps it in the schools.
Rockefeller is on record many times stating items like... " yes, I hold evolution in schools as I control the books, and since I control the books, I control the past and the future ", " yes, I am guilty of seeking to destroy the very fabic of life so I may chip the masses to control them as it should be, a king and a dictoratorship ", and these quotes can go on and on.
People are paid to believe in evolution, to think about it, to push it. And people do this very act out of greed for themselves. Who cares what schools are taught, as long as they got their 5 million paycheck.
Great example of this is the "no student left behind" act. Nightline just did a report on it last night showing the company who is responsible for it all, is a buddy of Bush. That guy got a check for $360 million for starting the program, a program that is worthless and is making our kids fail. Did they care if it worked or not? no, they just wanted the money.
Same reason we see starvation in the world, greed, same reason we see oil and gas issues today, greed. Money is what makes the world go round.

Evolution is ongoing today and can be studied in the same way that Darwin did. That's science.
Can we take take modern observations and extrapolate back to creation and explain the origin of man? That is an awfully big assumption.
Is it important to understand every minute detail of creation?
No, that is why we have faith. Evolution doesn't explain creation. It only explains how we got from there to where we are now.

Evolution isn't true. It is the stupidest theory i have ever heard. The only reason that they teach it in school is because most science teachers are athiest. I once argued with my bio teacher a few weeks ago about this topic and she gave me a detention. What a bioch! I just feel like slapping her upside the head. You should argue with your teacher about this. Good Luck.

I believe all theories should be taught in school. Not in Science though. As an elective and only in High School. I am a Creationist, but I don't want my kids to be ignorant of other beliefs/opinions/theories.

Scientists are part of a vast well paid conspiracy.
Average Student loan debt of Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Geology Majors in the US: $60,000
Average first year salary for them as graduates: $15,000
US "poverty level" for a family of two: $13,200
Average student loan payments made that year: $3000

"Confusion results for several reasons: (1) Some Evolutionists claim that Evolution(Meaning both Macroevolution and Mircoevolution) is a fact. (2) Some Creationists reject evolution because they cannot accept Macroevolution; (3) Some evolutionists interpret a rejection of evolution as a rejection of both microevolution and macroevolution. Obviously, the basic problem is that the two sides have not defined their terms." -L. Duane Thurman

The real question is why so many scientists continue to work on it if it is such a lie. Why do we have medicines that work because of work in evolutional genetics? Why do we have crops that were carefully evolved under controlled conditions to match the traits we want them to have? Why do we have animals that were carefully evolved under controlled conditions to match the traits we want them to have?
There is no reason to stop science because it contradicts a book written thousands of years ago by people who did not understand what science was.

the only time I was taught evolution was in the context of animals naturally evolving to accommodate their surroundings.
like their skin getting darker in sunny places. or their feet changing over many generations...
but, I was never taught that one animal evolves into another animal. (ie monkeys into humans)
