I said something earlier because of a history of science teachers correcting students. Just passing it along.
The problem one has when one is in a country without an official state religion is whose creation myth should be the accepted-as-fact one. We have loads of them in the US, including an American Indian one involving a world turtle which is way to close to Discworld. That the religions right nutjobs think the Christian version should be taught in public schools is something that unconstitutional as well as Children of the Corn creepy.
