The schools are not holding them up to the light. They are

It is a valid theory. As I said, if evolution is "the truth," why are sharks
still sharks 400 million years later?

Creationism (or at least Intelligent Design) has not been disproven by any
stretch of the imagination. It's merely discarded by anti-religious zealots
because it conflicts with their preferred secularist dogma.

People of intelligence with broad minds recognize that there are few, if any
absolute truths in the Universe, and welcome diverse opinion and debate as
the best way to find what truths do exist.
