Why don't people want Creationism or ID to be taught in schools?
Teaching them in school is not the issue. Teaching them in science classes rather than in classes on mythology or comparative religion is.

If evolution is scientifically proven, why not let it disprove ID in the class?
Hopefully, when you get to high school and take a science class you will learn what science is and how it works. Science is not in the business of proving anything. Science attempts to explain what we observe in the the universe around us. Creationism and ID haven't presented anything based on empirical evidence. They are assertions that are based on no evidence whatsoever. What would be the point in presenting that in a science class?

Not wanting ID to be taught in school is like asking Islamic law to not be in politics!!!
It is impossible!!
Did that make sense to you?

Just because ID has a religious superior being creating the earth, that should not make a difference!!
Only if you are of the opinion that science should be taught in science classes rather than superstition.

The only "evolution" that can be proven is micro-evolution (small variations and changes in species, but it is still the same species)
Evolution is an observation. It is neither proven nor disproven. However, the theories of evolution explain the mechanisms that cause the observed evolution.
