the butler act in 1925
Tennessee passed the Butler Act in 1925, which prohibited the teaching of any theory that denied the biblical account of creation, including evolution. This led to the famous Scopes Monkey Trial, where a high school teacher was prosecuted for teaching evolution.
Some states banned the teaching of evolution due to religious reasons, as it contradicted creationist beliefs. They believed that teaching evolution went against their religious views and wanted to prioritize alternative explanations such as creationism or intelligent design in the classroom.
They had none, they had been banned.
in the 1900s
Scopes was a teacher who was accused of violating the law by teaching evolution, which was banned. There is a great play about it that was made into a movie called "Inherit the Wind".
It was based off the Scopes-Monkey Trial in Tennessee. The law that banned the teaching of evolution in school was the Butler Act
The law prohibiting the teaching of evolution was upheld
Fundamentalists are at odds with the teaching of evolution because they believe it is not compatible with the teaching of creation. They believe the Bible teaches creation.
