The truly sick thing is that the Creationists actually had the better man or their side. Bryan was an honest and decent man, who truly loved his country and fellow man, even if he was often wrong. Darrow was an amoral Chicago lawyer who happened to be better than most other lawyers.

I wouldn’t characterize it as sick that a good person such as Jennings was on their side. I’m not saying religious people, even today, are sick, amoral beings. In fact, its quite to the contrary.

They just don’t understand the simple concept that you cannot teach creationism in classrooms.
