Depends on how you define controversy. If your question, how many bus drivers believe that Napoleon is real compared to how many bus drivers believe that evolution was real? Because if you ask bus drivers, there may well be "controversy." But in the academic community, there is no controversy at all.
We are talking about the ENTIRE COUNTRY here not a selective community, such as you describe. Which is why this topic is so volatile.
So, to throw in a "depends on how you define controversy" and equate a small groups "controversy" to the larger, more debated controversy of evolution/ID hardly seems germaine.
