They believe evolution is a lie and that since it's only a theory, creationism is on par and should be taught so kids have access to both sides of the story and can hopefully have more information to choose the "right" theory.

They believe that God made America a great and prosperous nation, and that removing prayer etc. from schools will cause our nation to be morally bankrupt and therefore no longer a great and prosperous nation. They believe that prayer changes the atmosphere of an entire school.

The Christians I know aren't even really devious enough to be knowingly attempting to brainwash kids. They just truly believe that more of Christianity everywhere will make everyone's lives better.
They should live in Vatican City.
