I went to a Private Catholic School, we were taught to believe that Creationism is not science at all, and likewise The Theory of Evolution is not Religious. We were also told that neither should be taken as fact, but if one were to be more astute, that The Theory of Evolution is less confounding, and not riddled with loop-holes. We were also taught that Creationism was more or less a stolen belief from other Religions, before the Scientific evolution of our later history, humanity needed to find a way to answer the question "why are we here?" Because our ancient ancestors knew almost nothing about pre-humans (Homo Hablis etc.) it was the best way to interpret our existance by our thoughts. By the time the Christian bible was written, it had been well around 3000 years in Christian science terms since the first humans (aka Adam and Eve) had been born. We were also taught that most people within the hierarchy of the Catholic Faith believe that when the Bible was written it, specifically the tale of how the world was born and how the first human's came into existance was not even very believed by the monks who had written it. But because there was no better explanation, they thought that there was no other way it could have happened.

Modern Christian Scientists are not stupid mind you, most are not dogmatic, or try to perverse Science with myths, or Christianity with Facts (thats what makes religion unique, all the unanswered questions that humanity wants to find, but nobody really wants the truth.) In Fact, most Christian Scientists are trying to figure ways of how to tie in Christian mythology with the theory of evolution. Christians scientists biggest question they are trying to uncover is not so much "is the theory of evolution wrong?, or is Christian mythology wrong?" but instead is "how did God create the Earth? or How did God Create Humanity". "was God unpleased by the first 'semi-human' that he created? "How does our DNA link us to God?" "why did God destroy the Dinosaurs?" etc. etc.

I still personally think it's BS, but thats just me. Theory of Evolution all the way.
