Many education experts and important scientists say we have to keep this religious-based "intelligent design" nonsense out of the classroom. But is that really such a good idea? Turning Darwin into an unassailable god without blemishes doesn't give student brains enough exercise. "If you don't see the risks, if you don't see the gaps, you don't see the genius of Darwin." I think it depends on the quality, knowledge, and skill of the teaching staff. In the wrong hands, this approach would only lead to further confusion and misunderstanding.
