"Students don't learn "opposing" methods for how gravity operates in physics class."

Really? And just how does gravity operate?

The best explanation that I've heard -- and the only one I'm aware of as being taught in public schools in any form -- is that gravity is a direct result of a warping of spacetime. Exactly why that warping occurs isn't exactly well-understood. Gravity isn't exactly very well-understood, unlike evolution.
