I think religion should be taught in public schools. It should not say this is what's right to believe and this is what's wrong, but students should be educated about the most predominant religions. It would allow students to get a better understanding of something and allow for more acceptance and maybe some will find a religion that suits them more.

How was religion taught in school?
Religion was never taught in school (if you mean public school).

Can evolution and creationism be taught in the classroom?
They can both be taught in classrooms. However creationism cannot be taught as if it were scientifically verifiable fact in public schools, as it is not science, and the US constitution prohibits federal or state funded (educational) institutions promoting religion. So if creationism is taught in public school, then it must be taught in comparative religion or philosophy classes, and not in biology classes.
Why should you don't need to have religious instructions in schools?
Opinions on this vary. But those who don't want to have religious instruction in school are probably afraid that a certain religion will be more or less imposed on children. After all, if a religion is to be taught, who should decide which religion will be taught? Would you agree with your children being taught (for example) Buddhism if you are a Christian; or Christianity if you are a Buddhist, because somebody else decided that that is the "best" religion? Those who do want religion may also have valid arguments - for example, they might consider that religion to be the source of morality/ethics. However, the problem persists, which religion should be taught. Of course it might be possible to teach several religions, depending on the children's preferences (or those of their parents). But that will increase the cost for the school.
