I find recent legal battles between creation scientists and schools teaching bonafide science in the U.S. very interesting. Have you tried to at least understand what each side says? After you see their information try the following, it will surely make you rethink who you are. The outcome is up to you!

Sorry, I should've said i'm on the aethiest side of the fence, I just don't agree in the arguments that a faith in science and a belief in a higher form of power have to be mutually exclusive, and indeed that a lack of scientific proof for a God (I always allude to a God as opposed to any religious representations of a specific god) should never be the basis for an argument in a Gods non existence.
I don't have a religious beleif myself, but great respect for those who do have their faith.
Ironically it has been my study of science, the fact that we are reaching the limit of what we can view without affecting the outcome and the probability theories associated with quantum mechanics that make me realise that we may be limited to what we will be able to describe with science giving rise to notions of Gods out of reach of our understanding, possibly forever - the way it should be.
I think the teaching of creationist theory should be in religous studies not science. I disagree with many aspects of christianity -but I never proclaim that I am right whilst they are wrong
