Um...It has it's similarities to the general Christian theory of creation, thought the book of Genesis from the Christian Bible is considered corrupt by Muslims (they think it is not the word of Allah, and therefore is wrong). Allah created humanity through Adam, for example. I think a lot of creation is in chapter 38 of the Qur'an if you want to check it out.
Maybe they should teach an entire class of "world religions" as a social studies class. In the classs they learn about Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Agnostic, and any other major world religion. If a parent get's mad, they simply say, "We'll get to your faith along with all the others, so shut the f**k up." Maybe they'll say it nicer, but you get the idea.
