4. Fundamentalism - Newspaper
Fundamentalism is the strict way people
uphold their belief's according to
scripture. Because Christian's believe
that God created all things including
humans, they choose not to learn or

only to find himself in deep trouble.
Eventually, states began to teach
evolution in their schools. In the photo,
there is an article in a newspaper about
Scope's sentence.
