Allow me to join the chorus of, "Like what?"
By my experience, there is no evidence in support of creation. A search of the various journals of science finds not a single article that supports creationism. Instead, they all support evolution.
By mathematics, it is topologically impossible to flood the globe (Hint: How do you propose to take the 97% of the earth's total water which is below sea level, stick it above sea level, and manage to keep it there for 150 days?)
By physics, the earth is not young.

As long as such evidences are religion free (no Bible, no God, etc.), should they be admitted and taught in Public School Science Curricula?
No, because they are false.
You wouldn't have us teach that pi is equal to three in mathematics class, would you? You wouldn't have us teach that there are -ur verbs in Spanish class, would you? You wouldn't have us teach that The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was written by Plato, would you?
So if you wouldn't have us teach things that aren't true in any other class, why are you picking on biology class?
