For the record I believe in the process of evolution as most things that survive in this world have had to evolve to do so. I also dont believe that there was just some random bang that created intelligent life.

College professors have, for some years now, been astounded at the lack of basic education students are showing when they enter college. Science, reading, math. They are incompetent. Other countries are excelling.
Calling the bible "science" and teaching it as such is beyond absurd, and just worsens that void.
I don't anybody who went to a Catholic high school. I do know that the Catholic grade school where I grew up taught science, and students who went there were pretty smart in junior high.
There was a time when religion and science were taught separately, and both were respected for what they were. Science didn't preclude religion, nor the other way around.
