What I want to know is what does the theory of evolution have to do with the beginning of the Universe?

Evolution and big bang--It was the best way to word it.

Creationism is not science and therefore shouldn't be taught in science class, just like evolution is not religion and thus shouldn't be taught in church.

How--neither one is a science

I agree.  Secondly, the poll options are to narrow.  Both evolution and creationism should be taught in schools.  Evolution should be taught as both Macro and Micro-evolution in either Biology or Earth Science type classes, while creationism should be taught in the narative context in English or as religious lore in World History classes.

i have an option for both

That's not what scientists say about evolution. If you're going to say evolution isn't based on science, then back it up.

science must be observed

Uhm, no. Experimentation must be observed. Science involves more than just experimentation.

No--look at any scientific method.  PART of it is experimentatio--but all of hte versions of it have some observation, maybe not visual, but one of the 5 senses.

Evolution as a fact, which it is.
In my Geology class, we have to write a report about why "Intelligent Design" shouldn't be taught in schools.  The facts about this thing are ridiculous.  Its creators don't even believe it; they just want an excuse to incorporate extreme right-wing Christianity into schools.  IDers conveniently like to avoid the actual evidence that supports the fact that people evolved from monkeys (ie, fossil records) and that the earth is more than 6,000 years old (ie, geologic time records).

Tell me 1 place on the earth where the geological column scientist created is accurate.
