I wouldn't object much to creationism taught in schools as part of a comparative religion class or such, but the problem here is that they are attempting to teach it as a scientific alternative, and that I can not accept. There's nothing scientific about Intelligent Design, and it is also very biased towards a Christian viewpoint, which ignores other major belief systems throughout the world.

I really feel that anything religious should be kept out of schools completely, or when it's necessary, to be taught in as secular a manner as possible, without showing favoritism towards any one religion. If you want your kids to learn the creation story, take them to Sunday school. The public school system is not the place for this kind of debate.
