Evolution as a fact, which it is.
In my Geology class, we have to write a report about why "Intelligent Design" shouldn't be taught in schools.  The facts about this thing are ridiculous.  Its creators don't even believe it; they just want an excuse to incorporate extreme right-wing Christianity into schools.  IDers conveniently like to avoid the actual evidence that supports the fact that people evolved from monkeys (ie, fossil records) and that the earth is more than 6,000 years old (ie, geologic time records).

Indeed, the Right is constantly engaging in academic dishonesty. They argue things in a deliberately misleading way, often in spite of overwhelming evidence. Perhaps, we should "teach the controversy" of whether the earth is round or flat. After all, there are still a few flat earthers out there.
