If we don't teach creation in school, because of other people's beliefs, why teach evolution?

I don't really believe in creation (or evolution), but it just saddens me how people bash on creationists, and don't let them learn creation in school, while it's okay to teach them the [i]theory[/i] of evolution.

I see this as bullshit.

Both sides have no proof that either creation happened nor evolution (thus the [i]theory[/i] of evolution). In my opinion, we should just leave both out completely (or give students an option).

It's not fair to creationists to not be able to learn their beliefs, while other beliefs are forced down their throats. It's just not fair in my opinion.

What do you guys think (and yes, I did get this idea from another person's post about wanting to fight a creationist on their beliefs)?

Then you may as well tell kids that it's fine to talk to their imaginary friend in public, as they are as real as god. I am not saying that neither does not exist but don't call someone crazy because they can see and hear things you can not.

@durmstrangdarkarts: What does this have to do with the question? I had my own imaginary friends when I was a kid. I don't think a kid is crazy for having an imaginary friend.

I also don't think people are crazy for what they believe in.
