Come on. If it weren't for the fact that evolution disagrees with the Biblical account of creation, none of this would be under discussion. There's scientific disagreement about the underlying theory of gravity; why isn't Georgia insisting that that controversy be included in the curriculum?

because they don't have to. evolution is a scientific theory with a massive non-scientific lobbying group behind. explain that without bringing religion/anti-religion into it?

I'll lay a wager that not one American public school student has a textbook that mentions it.

Does it have such a lobby group? No matter, it still redounds to my point: the battle over creationism is the sole issue here.
