Do you think creationism should be taught in school as a credible alternative to evolution? [Spirituality & Religion]

If so, how do you feel special creation meets the criteria for a science in the way that the theory of evolution does?

Religion is the basis of prejudice. Evolution is only an explanation of how we became what we are over time. It is observable.
@MasterLee I respect your opinion.
You aren't as inflammatory as others about what you claim as truth.

@MasterLee Religion is one basis of prejudice. So is race/appearance, national origin, disability, sex, age, financial status, gender, and a lot more. Most of those are out of the control of someone which group the person is a member of. Religion though, is a choice. Do you want to be in the group with the Catholics, Baptists, Lutherans, Jews, Muslims, or some tribal faith. Everybody outside of that are "your enemy". That was fine in times of tribalism, when we had weapons of rocks or arrows. That is no longer fine, nor productive, nor useful when we live in a world with a global economy, where we can travel anywhere in the world in less than a day, when we have weapons which could destroy life on earth in a few minutes. In the current reality, religion, which might have given us comfort and explained the unknown in the past, has become an existential threat!
