Good, good read and a reminder that there are still those who do not believe what science has taught us but thank heaven not as strongly as this tale reminds us. For those who may not remember the movie, the play or the book,, this is a tale about The Origin of the Species by Darwin and the teacher who brought it into the classroom to share with his students. He is accused of violating an obsolete law based on religious belief that defames the science of the book. Two very different lawyers battle over the concept with the country awaiting the outcome. Is man allowed to think for himself or must all thought be based on literal interpretation of the Bible?
