Science v. Religion

there has always been a dispute about the teachings of creationism and evolutionism and which is more appropriate to be taught in school. whats so uncanny is now there is an issue teaching creationism do to other students' beliefs, and can be offensive to them. i do not agree to teach creationism because of this fact and many others. including the issue that there is no proof to evolutionism, but at least creationism is supplied with a backed up theory. i am not a religious person so it is not easy for me to sit through a discussion on how "God" created the earth and everything in it. this is no disrespect to those who believe in the theory, however i am not too fond of those who attempt to convince those who do not, since it is their choice of what to believe. because creationism is based off theory of science, it is allowed to be taught in SCIENCE class. Because there is normally not a class for religion in public schools, it shouldn't be taught in PUBLIC schools.
