That is fine, but if you are teaching the evolution myth, then you should also
teach the Shinto mythology, the Hindu mythology, the American Indian mythology,
etc.  I see them all as equally valid.  Evolutionists, by and large, do not,
as they are asserting the supremacy of their mythology over that of other
cultures/religions.  Don't try to tell me that evoltion is pure, unbiased
science!  I DARE you to study scientific creationism AS OBJECTIVELY AS YOU DO
EVOLUTION.  I think you'll be surprised.
