Trouble is, there isn't a controversy to teach, at least not a real one. The while there are indeed scientific controversies (the relative importance of Ediacaran fossils, for example, or the value of manned space exploration), the one regarding creation/evolution isn't scientific, but political. There is NO serious scientific controversy regarding the fact of biological evolution.

If you MUST teach the 'controversy', get it out of a science class and put it into one called something like, 'The Societal Impact Of Willful Ignorance'.
