Do they primarily take the form of "How do evolutionists explain ___"?
Would a lesson on creationism be a critique of evolution?

You have seen our doctrine. It's not hidden, in fact it is the most published book in the world. You doctrine however is suspect. It's not taught the same by any two teachers. So to ask you to explain tells us just how far a field you are willing to go to attempt yo make scripture sound wrong... Jim

Creation Science, lacking any supporting facts is all about deceptive rhetoric. There are no recent Creationist discoveries. They continue to focus on instrumentation limits of the 60's and 70's, because since the 70's, there is just too much data to refute evolution: hominid finds from the Eastern Rift Valley, numerous key transitional fossil finds, and most critically extensive molecular data that shows how closely humans are related to the other great apes (more than the lesser apes).

Not exactly no. Evolution is a theory explaining physical observations of the natural world, backed up by genetic observation of the molecular world.
Creationalism simply states that there must at some point been a master creator/master programmer who instigated and designed all processes in nature.
It is only creationalists who stick to Old testament allergorical myth whom cannot accept that the earth is older than 6000BC.

Only if you're a creationist because creationism deals with personal belief and not factual points. Evolution on the other hand deals with an on-going process in the world.

Yeah, almost all creationist/ID arguments go something like this:
1. Either creation/ID or evolution.
2. Not evolution.
3. Therefore, creation/ID.

A lesson in evolution might be a schooling for a few creationists.

Never argue with a creationist. They will believe anything that makes absolutely no sense.

Yes it is mostly an argument from personal incredulity.
Actually its not even an argument, they essentially say 'god did it'.

It could be. Depends on the individual approach.
