Sure. Some faith is definitely required since God cannot be scientifically "proven". But I do not think it is a blind faith, like I am guessing you mean. It is a reasoned faith. I have no problem teaching my children that.
Note, I wasn't sure all of what you meant by the last part of your comment so I left it out.
The last part is clear - Through hundreds of years of painstaking analysis of the universe and it's nature there has never been a single piece of positive evidence for God - If you really care enough about your children to want them to have a solid foundation of truth, you must acknowledge that none of the reasons for believing in God are from objective evidence and that the reason you do not accept evolution is because it is incompatible with the fundamentalist interpretation of the Bible that you so value over objective evidence.
