I was wondering what it's like?
If you are taught it as a valid theory, does anyone (teachers/students) take it seriously.
I just can't believe people would really believe that crap

It's people like you that make it so hard to get evolution accepted. Stop saying that creationism is completely wrong. Suggest, instead, that evolution is the better theory. For, how can anyone be sure that they are right?

Note: I believe in evolution.

If you have a Christian Living class, in addition to a science class, it can be rather interesting. Creationism and creationist myths, from around the world, are quite fascinating if you get right into them.

I'd just like to say that while I was taught about the whole evolution vs. creationism teaching argument in my social science classes, I was never taught either in a science class. As a result, I feel like the whole thing is unimportant because I never personally encountered it.

Really, wtf? I never got any evolution in my biology classes. It just never came up somehow.

If you go to universities that are not accredited it's taught all the time.

it is actually in the school curriculum for high school biology here in New South Wales, Australia, but its so minor that my teacher spent about 30 seconds on it
