Creationism in Schools?

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” This passage from Genesis is the cornerstone for a whole following of believers convinced there can be no other alternative for the creation of the universe. To creationists, the writings in Genesis are a literal interpretation of how the universe was created. So does this mean the Bible is a scientific textbook meant to be read word for word? Should the teachings of creation be taught side by side with evolution , a heavily researched and supported science? The answer is no. Creationism is a pseudo science and an offense to the separation of church and state that should not be allowed in the public school system.
