That a deity may have created, worked within, or assisted evolution in a sort of "intelligent design" way is possible - any scientist would have to concede that anything is possible.  It is also possible that a giant bowl of pasta noodled the universe and us into existance.  Just because something is possible doesn't mean that it should be part of a science class.  The current state of science is that evolution is a theory that has stood the test of scientific peer review for over a hundred years, whereas creationism (and/or intelligent design) is still just a hypothesis.

Maybe someday someone will come up with sufficient observable, repeatable evidence for ID to construct a convincing proof.  Science is always changing. Until then, all the faith, scripture, and epiphanies in the world won't make it compatible with science.  It may be true, but science requires evidence, observation, repeatability, and a well-constructed proof subject to peer review.
