Who would even bring up." Evolution lost in court"
if they gave it ten seconds' thought?
I wonder what the other states would have done.

QV post 1674. The link from the Smithsonian doesn't say what you think it says.
Other states didn't all have laws criminalizing the teaching of evolution. There was nothing for most of them to do.
Most, no.
But Arkansas and Mississippi did.
And who'd want to live there?
So Steve Kemper didn't bring up evolution losing in court?
And? One court in Tennesse in the early 20th century is not the groundbreaking hit against evolution you think it is.
Actually, a microbe.I see this all the time, it's become one of those knee jerk responses, but we did infact evolve from monkeys if evolution is true.
This may seem pedantic, but by definition the common ancestor between monkeys and humans was infact a monkey, we would call it a monkey if we saw it today, it would fit all the criteria for being a monkey. it wasn't a modern one, but it was still a monkey.
The split from monkeys happened after new world and old world monkeys split, so humans are descended from old world monkeys wich would make our ancestors monkeys.
Evolution lost in court in 1925.
Why is such a truthful statement making such a fuss?
Accept it.
It's a part of Americana.
(I find you guys' reactions quite interesting.)
"Evolution" didn't lose in court. John Scopes was on trial, not evolution. And the purpose was to get a conviction, to be able to challenge the Tennessee law before the Supreme Court. (This failed through a technicality.) But if you really want to go down that road, "evolution won" all following rematches:like Epperson vs Arkansas; McLean v. Arkansas Board of Education; Kitzmiller et al. v. Dover.So Steve Kemper didn't bring up evolution losing in court?

Who cannot see that those who thinkCognitive relativism? Who had thought that?
Who cannot see that those who think "Evolution lost in court" must perforce likewise think Christianity itself has likewise lost in court?
Cognitive relativism? Who had thought that?
This gives me an idea! I think I'll start a monkey ancestry DNA lab. I'll trace folks DNA all the way to their monkey ancestors and then I can tell them exactly what family of monkeys they come from.I see this all the time, it's become one of those knee jerk responses, but we did infact evolve from monkeys if evolution is true.

What purpose does above post have?This gives me an idea! I think I'll start a monkey ancestry DNA lab. I'll trace folks DNA all the way to their monkey ancestors and then I can tell them exactly what family of monkeys they come from.
All humans would be the same on that scale. In fact all apes would be in that same category as well.This gives me an idea! I think I'll start a monkey ancestry DNA lab. I'll trace folks DNA all the way to their monkey ancestors and then I can tell them exactly what family of monkeys they come from.
