shouldn't be that difficult to implement
- there is no scientific controversy over 'biological evolution'
- nobody (at least no scientist) knows 'the chemical origins of life'
- 'human cloning' is a technique and not a theory
- 'global warming' is perhaps the only thing mentioned that comes close 
to being a controversy in the scientific field.
If it would really lead to a debate in class on what is and what is not 
good research I would welcome it. But I guess somebody is going to point 
out that that is not the intention.

As far as I understand there are people trying to pass anti-science 
legislation and failing to get it to pass through the committees.
