Background knowledge – 2. The New Testament
The New Testament is built on the foundation of the Old Testament and taken directly, and sometimes in a radicalized way, from the Old Testament. Not abolishing the Old Testament, the New Testament replaces it with new doctrines. The New Testament is called the Greek Testament with a central element of Christianity, and has played a major role in shaping modern Western culture. Their content is loosely a narration of the first century of Christianity. It all starts with Jesus, son of God, and continues into the moulding of a new religion. The central theme of the New Testament is underlining Jesus as Messiah. The redemption from sin only could be obtained through the belief in Jesus.
Fourth day: God creates lights to separate light from darkness and to mark days, seasons and years. Two great lights are made (most likely the Sun and Moon), and the stars.

3. William Jennings Bryan (1860 – 1925)
W. J. Bryan was born in Salem, Illinois. In his middle-class family, great emphasis was placed on religion and morality, not only in one’s personal life, but in publics and in the conduct of national affairs. After graduating from Illinois College of Law in Chicago, he opened a law office in Jacksonville. In 1887, Bryan moved to Lincoln, Nebraska, practicing law and simultaneously turning toward politics. He won a seat in Congress in 1890 and was reelected in 1892. He was the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee three times (1896, 1900, 1908). In 1912 he helped to secure the nomination of Woodrow Wilson for the presidency, and Wilson named him secretary of state in 1913.

the trial that rocked总结
the trial that rocked总结he Trial That Rocked the World震撼世界的审判John Scopes约翰·司科普斯A buzz ran through the crowd as I took my place in the packed court on that sweltering July day in 1925. The counsel for my defense was the famous criminal lawyer Clarence Darrow. Leading counsel for the prosecution was William Jennings Bryan, the silver-tongued orator, three times Democratic nominee for President of the United States, and leader of the fundamentalist movement that had brought about my trial.在1925年7月那个闷热的日子里,当我在被挤得水泄不通的法庭刚就位时,人群中响起一阵嗡嗡声。
为我辩护的是鼎鼎大名的刑事辩护律师克拉伦斯·达罗。
担任主控官的则是口才一流的雄辩演说家威廉·詹宁斯·布莱恩。
他曾三次被提名为美国民主党总统候选人,还是促成对我进行审判的基督教原教旨主义运动的领导者。
A few weeks before I had been an unknown school-teacher in Dayton, a little town in the mountains of Tennessee. Now I was involved in a trial reported the world over. Seated in court, ready to testify on my behalf, were a dozen distinguished professors and scientists, led by Professor Kirtley Mather of Harvard University. More than 100 reporters were on hand, and even radio announcers, who for the first time in history were to broadcast a jury trial. "Don't worry, son, we'll show them a few tricks," Darrow had whispered, throwing a reassuring arm round my shoulder as we were waiting for the court to open.几个星期之前,我还只是田纳西州山区小镇戴顿的一名默默无闻的中学教员,现在我却突然变成了一场举世瞩目的审判的当事人。

Origins
State Rep. John W. Butler, head of the World's Christian Fundamentals Association, lobbied state legislatures to pass anti-evolution laws, succeeding in Tennessee when the Butler Act was passed. In response, the American Civil Liberties Union financed a test case in which John Scopes, a Tennessee high school teacher, intentionally violated the Act.Scopes was charged on May 5, 1925 with teaching evolution from a chapter in a textbook that showed ideas developed from Charles Darwin's book On the Origin of Species. The two sides brought in the biggest names in the nation, William Jennings Bryan for the prosecution and Clarence Darrow for the defense, and the trial was followed on radio transmissions throughout America.
