Content: Currently there are  no credible peer reviewed scientists that accept creationsim/intelligent design as a fact. Evolution is a theory supported by a variety of hypotheses, enormous evidence, and is universally accepted as fact within the scientific community. Teach the definitions, as they are what they are. Doing so leaves all the space for religionists to conduct research, to establish evidence to support their hypothesis, and for others in both the scientific and  religion communities to advance the hypothesis toward theory. This is fair! Teachers who avoid teaching these definitions, up front and in advance of any science/religious education, are directly contributing to misunderstanding and that does not serve science or religion or knowledge in  general,. Vocabulary! It isfair to both! Let the science teach science and the clergy person teach religion. Let the science teacher answer questions of science, th clergy person answer questions of faith.
