Inherit The Wind Scene 1

The book Inherit the Wind is a very interesting remake of the Scopes Trial.Bryan/Brady was a famous lawyer who was defending the bible. In the book Brady was a very glutenous character. Overall the dialoge in the book is very differnt then it was in thew actual trial. Most of the conversations they had in the book did truly not happen in real life. Secondly in the book the setting is kind of off. For example there was no sign that said "Read the bible," that was only in the book. Thirdly William Jenngings Bryan's name got changed to Matthew Harrison Brady in the book. Bryan/Brady was a famous lawyer who was defending the bible. In the book Brady was a very glutenous character. All the towns people treat Brady like he is a god. They do this because he is a famous lawyer and they think he is going to "save" their school from being tought evolution.

Save.. that is a very interesting word but i think it is totaly accurate and i think you did that well. I guess thats what a Religion does, it saves you. saves you from a bad day a bad year or what ever you need saving from. I think the question is... does this town really need saving??? i think there is a time and place to be saved.
