Final writing test.(Inherit the wind)

In 1925, Bertram Cates, a teacher from a Hillsboro was arrested and accused for teaching evolutionism.A certain sates law in Tennessee proclaimed that it was illegal to teach Charles's Darwin theory of evolution.In this religious town , only creationism was allowed and the bible was the only truth. Inherit the win is not about a battle between Creationism an evolutionism. It it not about who is right and who is wrong.The Freedom of speak, right and think always come with a high price and consequence. The play opposes two main themes : the freedom of thought vs , fundamentalism.Obviously , the famous <> of 1925, opposed evolutionism and creationism.However, if we take an closer look at the ultimate goal of the play, could we say that Inherit the wind opposes justice to morality? If the human rights were on trial in the play, it is because Hillsboro was a religious town ,intolerant to morality, freedom of thought and individuality . Inherit the win should win the award for the best play of the year.

First the play shows us that justice has no place in a religious society.This small city of Hillsboro rejected all the contemporary thoughts, they had a laws against creationism.The people of Hillsboro lived by the bible and considered themselves totally religious. The bible was the only guide line that could guide their lives.Bertram Cates was accused of teaching creationism and proclaiming immoral things.Although He was only questioning himself on life and the world , he was treated like traitor or a monster by his own community.Moreover, the play also showed that justice in the play was on trial. The court room who was supposed to be neutral , had a huge sign on the wall who said<<>>. That sign already showed to everybody that Cates was going to loose the trial. In a high religious court room where even the judge takes position on you, how can you possibly win?Henry Drummond who is Cate's lawyer is mistaking for the devil by the people of Hillsboro.He is a former lawyer from Chicago and automatically accuses the court room to favor creationism and religious. Also the court room privileged Brady the religious lawyer of Hillsboro, to over win on Drummond.When Drummond tries to used his 15 experts has witnesses the judges and Brady disallowed him. They also disallowed him to use the book of Charles Darwin has prove.The courtroom disallow all his proves even though his prove are the only help he has.Like its not enough, they tell him he could only use the bible.
Justice is definitely on trial, and that's what makes the play reflective


In second, the plays shows that morality and freedom of thought have been for a long time impersonal. Drummond knows that he is affront of a crowd that only believes in the bible.The bible is only a way to explain life, it like philosophy or science. Drummond tries to make them understand that they need to see further. When Drummond calls Brady on affront of the court , we realise that Brady cannot think by himself.Brady cannot make a personal opinion on anything, he always relies on the bible. Drummond tries to make him understand that evolutionism is only a theory that proclaims a constant evolution of species and humans being.Furthermore, Drummond accused Brady of being cunning, manipulative and not enough open minded. Brady said that Charles Darwin theory was nothing, it was devilish , but he never read it. How can someone place such a statement on something he know nothing a bout. Brady never wrote the anything about evolutionism and he doesn't want too, and that his right.What is not right, is to place such a judgmental statement on something you know nothing about.


On the one hand, Drummond places Brady in a funny position when he makes every body realizes that Brady is vulnerable.Brady actually think that the bible is real, that all the miracles and stories which are written in the bible are real.The bible is only on of the many ways that explains life. Most of the stories in it are untruth.When people in the court room realizes Brady weakness, Drummond wins over Brady's credibility.On the other hand , Drummond is not against the bible, he he just against fundamentalism.He even said, that God gives us the possibility to think by ourselves, so we should use our own head.He wants to make the court room understand that Cates was only asking himself question , and that there is nothing wrong with it. Drummond tries to make Hillsboro's citizen that evolutionism is not devilish, it a theory.You need faith in religious like you need critical and individual thinking in science. Science permitted many technological progress, and it has nothing to do with religious. So is science bad? Drummond tries to makes the court room that their are many different sciences ,and they are all useful.

In conclusion, Inherit the wind is a reflexion on the freedom of though, on individuality and justice.Obviously we could there was many others themes, but the outstanding one is the Freedom of thought. Religion is just one sphere of influences on many others. Evolutionism is a scientifically proven theory and Creationism is a religious theory.Inherit the wind is a very strong criticize on our previous society, and it also makes us reflect on the individual rights of toady's generation..
