I ganked this quote from a post by [livejournal.com profile] sempereadem. It showcases the scathing talents of one Mr. Clarence Darrow.

Mr. Darrow was examining Mr. Bryan on whether the Bible is "fact"; one of the prosecutors interrupted the line of questioning to ask the relevance.

MR. STEWART--What is the purpose of this examination?

MR. BRYAN--The purpose is to cast ridicule on everybody who believes in the Bible, and I am perfectly willing that the world shall know that these gentlemen have no other purpose than ridiculing every person who believes in the Bible.

MR. DARROW--We have the purpose of preventing bigots and ignoramuses from controlling the education of the United States, and you know it, and that is all.
