Exactly, save creationism for a world religions class and evolution for the science class. They cannot be compared in the context of science because creationism is outside of the scientific process.
True, but try to tell that to the millions of people who believe creationism IS science... To make it simple, just let the kids choose and decide for themselves...

No, that's not how it works. By that logic we also would have to teach about ghosts, dwarfs, <stroke>astronomy</stroke>astrology, or just claims made by other religions or folklore. There's a reason we teach our children sciences. They are objective, observable, testable, falsifiable, etc. We want a rational society, not despotism.
The millions of people who believe creationism IS science are wrong. It's imperative for people to let them know (politely, of course) that they are wrong, especially in the science classroom
