The elephant in the room is the question why they did not want teach this. Darwinism and other theories, even the big bang theorists, do not require nonacceptance of a creator or primal cause. If it is in error, it is not quite avoda zara. Methinks the educators suspect that any exposure to other belief systems will bring the edifice crashing down. Similarly they fear in EY that to put a yeshiva bochur in the army, he will be shmadded up in the blink of an eye. This is a resounding self accusal, of producing a substandard product, a generation whose yahadus can be damaged with the brush of a feather. Where is the concept of a Jew with analytical thought, with confidence in his knowledge who can withstand any nisayon? 0rur oseh meleches Hashem rimiyo!
