Ummm... this isn't his opinion on Creationism itself, but whether
it should be introduced to young minds as a *theory*. How can
allowing people to make up their own minds about the subject be BAD?

Theory? Its hardly a theory. To be that, it would need some scientific
basis. You might as well teach them von Daenicen's and Blavatskaya's
ideas alongside history on the premise that they can hardly be hurt by
being introduced to the theory and will obviously differentiate between
the crackpot and non-crackpot ones.
