It would be a good way to teach the Scientific method, on one hand, there's Evolution, on the other, creationism. Both are conflicting theories that back themselves up in different ways. Each also asks questions of the other (naturally, since they are mutually incompatible)
If they were taught together in school, children would quickly learn how to rationalise, to think for themselves and would have experience in making judgements on the validity and worthiness of conflicting ideas.
