Scopes trial started to made schools in America teach the students with scientific approach when observing the universe

Scope trials revolved around The state of Tennesse Vs John Thomas Scopes because scopes taught the theory of evolution in his class. At first , Scopes lost the case and banned from teaching that theory.

The case got a lot of attention from people across the nation and Scopes received a lot of support. Until eventually more teachers started to openly taught the theory of evolution in their science class. Which started the shift from traditional view of observing the universe into a modern one.
