All cultures have creation stories. None of them make a pile of sense. However, I teach a number at various times: Inuit, Biblical, Native North American, etc. I am fortunate in that I have only once been taken to task for it--and that was in the public system. I countered with--"It's literature, and you don't choose what I choose to choose from the curriculum." That was that.

I have not brought aspects of Catholicism into literature unless there was darned good reason to. The Church today accepts Adam and Eve as allegorical; I always have. It's nice when the institutions catch up with their congregations.
