As for Creationism, all I have to cite is the 1st Amendment of the US Constitution, which Delaware Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell did not know until very recently:

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

-US Constitution, 1st Amendment

 

 

 

If creationism is taught as science in a government funded school, then that violates separation of church and state, which most Athiests/Agnostics see as a vital part of a democracy.

 

Teaching creationism is not church nor is school government. (there probably some in the government needs to go back to school) That's like saying teaching Greek mythology (which they did when I went) violates separation of church and state. In fact you can teach Bible as parts of history and not violate the Constitution.

 You can twist the Contitution around to support or be against anything including support child porn which they did.

  What we really need now  is a separation of Federal government and school.

 

As I said, not going to get involved in a theist vs athiest debate, least of all here and derail my own thread. If you particularly want to know how I would respond to said points, feel free to send me a PM or wall post.
