How can a government/state justify presenting just one religious viewpoint of creation?

There is hardly money, space, time and resources to actually teach SCIENC. Addressing misinformation and intellectually corrupt garbage is an unethical use of limited resources. Teach science in the science courses. Leave the subject areas of the curricula to the actual subject matter experts.

Or maybe after the scientists are through debating the religious nuts by the use of logic and reason, they will take on the challenge of teaching a pig to recite the Iliad. They would probably have a much better chance at success.
