Why do people assume that teaching a concept in school is "shoving beliefs down my throat"? Because if that is the case the same can be said for teaching evolution. If it is offensive to atheists if they have to listen to the theory of creationism then it might be offensive to Christians to have to listen to evolution. That road goes both ways.
And for the record, I attend a private christian school and they taught both to allow the students to make the choice for themselves. I don't see what the big deal is here.
Yes, I think it Creationalism should be taught in schools, but people should choose to take the class. God doesn't put Himself on others that don't choose to believe. He waits for them. I've learned this over the nearly two years that I have been a Christian...
