Is it morally correct to teach Evolution in Schools?

Maybe not so far as species changing to other species but I definitely think our bodies and animals evolve over time. There has always been a battle between science and religion and with so many schools being funded by the government people get their panties in abunch over the gov't funding a school that teaches creationism. I don't think they should teach anything about it in the younger years of high school. If someone wants to teach evolution or creationism I think it should be when the kids are older and can make up their own minds.

I think that both aspects should be taught and maybe even debating within the classroom. Younger kids should not be forced to hear this, only junior or senior classes. I think that the Earth is older than what the Bible says and stuff too. I do not think however that a teacher should voice their opinions or more so try to persuade students to see the creation of man the way that they believe. That is why the government and school systems get into trouble, it is because of a teacher forcing a view upon his or her students. I for one do not know how we got here and personally it really doesn't matter. All that matters is that we are here and we are basically healthy and stuff.
