7/10/1925 In Dayton, Tennessee, the so-called Scopes Monkey Trial begins when John Thomas Scopes, a young high school science teacher, is accused of teaching evolution in violation of Tennessee state law. The law which was recently passed, made it a misdemeanor to "teach any theory that denies the story of Divine Creation of man as taught in the Bible, and to teach instead that man is descended from a lower order of animals." With big names on both sides of the argument, it became one of the most famous trials in US history. Outside the courthouse was a circus-type atmosphere with monkeys dressed in suits and wearing fedoras.
