The Scopes Trial The Butler Act forbade the teaching of evolution in Tennessee; only divine creation allowed Am. Civil Liberties Union wanted to challenge the law and vowed to defend anyone who fought the Butler Act. John Scopes was contacted and was asked to teach the theory of evolution

Scopes was indicted for teaching evolution after three students testified against him William Jennings Bryan, former Presidential candidate, would lead the prosecution Clarence Darrow, an agnostic, defended Scopes

End of the Trial Trial lasted for 8 days Scopes didn’t even testify; but scientist, priests, professors all spoke on the subject Jury took 9 minutes to decide Scopes was guilty $100 fine ($1,165 today)

Scopes’ Only Words “Your honor, I feel that I have been convicted of violating an unjust statute. I will continue in the future, as I have in the past, to oppose this law in any way I can. Any other action would be in violation of my ideal of academic freedom — that is, to teach the truth as guaranteed in our constitution, of personal and religious freedom. I think the fine is unjust”

The Monkey Trial Present an argument for the defense of John Scopes based upon the scientific validity of teaching evolution and the fact that the Butler Act was unconstitutional. Present an argument for the prosecution based upon the right of a state to determine what is taught in its school system.
