To those who don't know, Inherit the Wind is a play based on the 1920 Scopes Monkey Trial
I thought of this question yesterday on the train.
The question I am asking is from the point of view that culturally Evolutionists won the 1920 Scopes Monkey Trial because it is now acceptable to teach The Theory of Evolution in the public schools.
This question I am asking today is about the Intelligent Design Theory, which clearly all of us agree is a threat to the future of science in America if allowed it to be taught.
With the President of the United States a proponent of its teaching, does this set us back culturally, and do we as a Generation, our Generation X, need to "Inherit the Wind" again as was done in 1920, to preserve the integrity of science education in America.
So basically, is it up to us to "Inherit the Wind" again, in 1920 it was making Evolution acceptable, and now its keeping junk science out of our classrooms?
