By creation I assume you mean denying evolution happens and that humans walked the Earth with dinosaurs 10,000 or so years ago. I know quite a few people who think like you and its a perfectly valid opinion. But its not supported by science. People 500 years ago had a hard time believing that Earth and humans, Gods chosen creatures, were not the center of the universe. But as science proved that we spun around the sun and the earth is round, people slowly, over many generations, changed their view (flat earthers aside.) One day there may be an easily reproducable experiment that creates life from amino acids, or maybe even simpler compounds. Until then, both creationism and spontanious life remain theories and are equally valid imho. Evolution itself, however, is supported by genetic experiments and living/fossil records and even the most fundamental Christian would be hard pressed to deny evolution on the micro level. Same goes for the younge Earth theory. It is simply not supported by proof and evidence, while there is overwhelming evidence for old Earth theories.
Science has yet to prove that sponatanious life can happen, that a species can split into two new, incompatable species or that Earth was created 6 billion years ago. These are theories that might one day be proven, but until they are, science and schools should teach the theory most supported by fact, not faith.
