Aren't schools where we teach the most accepted current understanding of how our world works?

It take more faith to believe in evolution then it does to believe in god.
Since when is how much faith it takes to believe something an indicator of its veracity? Plus, by definition, faith is believing something for which there is no evidence. Science deals with evidence, not faith.

Evolution believes that a rock became an animal such as a tadpole then it became another animal over thousands of years and if that was so how would that animal either live for 1000 years or mate with it self and how would sea animals become land animals or vise versa how would it have gills and be able to breathe air. Its so much easier to believe that there was a creator, thats why i don't think evolution should be taught in schools.
First of all, "Evolution" doesn't believe anything. It is an explanation for what we observe that is widely accepted based on the evidence. As for the rest of what you said, you do not understand the theory of evolution at all. Your description is a purely fabricated strawman, and has nothing to do with what biologists believe about the evolution of species.
