" No, neither of the issues you raise are scientific"
Actually they both can be addressed scientifically. The holocaust though archeology and forensics. I assume you recall the push to accept homosexuality as a genetically determined trait "born gay" as it where. That is a controversy that would take place in the scientific realm and so would, by your argument, be a good addition to the curriculum.

Fine, then examine the evidence and you will quickly disprove the Holocaust denial perspective. I'm not sure what can be demonstrated scientifically with regard to homosexuality, but examining the science behind it certainly wouldn't hurt a science student. If you want to put those issues to scientific examination, then they belong in science class as much as creationism.
But, you initially said "holocaust denial perspective in history classes or how about homosexuality in health classes?" Those are not science classes.
