The cause of the Scopes Trial was disagreement about evolution.
One side thought that evolution should be taught in schools, while another side
said that it shouldn’t. It was also said that teaching of evolution was in
violation of Tennessee’s Butler Act which stated that it was unlawful to teach evolution
in any state-funded school.
It was purposely meant to also bring publicity, but in the
end, John Scopes was fined $100 dollars which is equivalent to over $1000
dollars today. Many of the people and reporters went to the “big-shot” lawyers involved
in the case so, the lawyers to morph the truth into anything they wished and
the public hung on to their words. One thing it teaches is that we need to look
at both sides because one side could be changed to what someone wants.
Answer: 100% agree
