Knowing what you know now, and what your beliefs are now, if you could go back to high school science and the day they taught evolution, would you insist that creationism be taught as well? How would you bring it up? Or were both topics already discussed at the school you attended?

No. And actually, I remember my step-father calling up the administration of the homeschooling program we were using to reprimand them from excluding coverage of evolution in the curriculum (it was in the book, but the lesson plans skipped over it). It was a Catholic program, but the official stance of the Church is that teaching evolution is fine because it could well be a god-driven mechanism.
