I'm not sure that it's always "deliberately", but otherwise you're right, Ed; they confuse ignorance with disbelief.
Why should students only be taught the leading theory? Wouldn't it be better for them to be taught about opposing theories and how to try and determine which is correct? Isn't teaching them only the leading theory a form of indoctrination (teaching them what to think rather than how to think)? And saying that the evidence leans to evolution is begging the question (and, in my view, incorrect).
