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.
I think that he came up with that because in the old days I think that he though it would be a great idea to make the president look fantastic.
Hitler tried it and failed horribly, Napoleon tried before that and found equally terrible results, and the Swedes who fought in the Great Northern War would tell a similar story.
Supply lines running thin in the freezing cold and enveloping mud spells doom for anyone attacking into a Russian winter — or does it?
For some reason, history tends to overlook the many times Russia has lost in the cold, despite their home-turf advantage.
Whigs opposed the war because many of them thought that going to war with mexico would encourage slavery expansion and allow the US to gain new southwest territories
So an iron triangle comprises or makes the base of the policy making relation over or among the congressional committees,the bureaucracy, etc.
Hope This Helps!!!
