Intelligent Design
Intelligent Design and Darwinism should both be taught in schools. Teachers do not have to advocate one or the other, but kids should be exposed to both theories. While parts of Darwinism are strongly supported by data, other areas are not, such as how did life first begin. These answers could possibly be filled in by Intelligent Design. Teachers can inform students about Intelligent Design without advocating a religion or revealing who they think the "Designer" is. Teachers would only be making the information available so that students could draw their own conclusions. Whether or not an individual personally agrees with the theory, it should at least be brought up so that students are aware of it.
