Wow! "Inherit the Wind" was right about the future!
"Can't you understand that if you take a law like evolution and make
it a crime to teach it in public schools, tomorrow you could make
it a crime to teach it in private schools, and tomorrow you may make it a crime to read about it?
And soon you may ban books and newspapers.
And then you may turn Catholic against Protestant, and Protestant against Protestant, and try to foist your own religion upon the mind of man.
If you can do one you can do the other, because fanaticism and ignorance is forever busy and needs feeding.
And soon, Your Honour, with banners flying and with drums b*ating, we'll be marching backward.
Backward!
Through the glorious ages of that 16th century, when bigots b*rned the man who dared bring enlightenment and intelligence to the human mind."
